    I think this is only TT's 3rd draft and 3rd yr of free agency

    That being said, this draft is critical to GB because the Snapper had decided to hide his head under the shell throughout all of free agency. Crap, I still have this stupid signature; never would I have imagined it's take this long.

    Some teams have filled holes via free agency....like NE....and they are filling out the depth of a contending team.

    We're further away from the playoffs on paper than we were at the end of last season; that's why it's so dam important.
    TERD Buckley over Troy Vincent, Robert Ferguson over Chris Chambers, Kevn King instead of TJ Watt, and now, RICH GANNON, over JIMMY JIMMY JIMMY LEONARD. Thank you FLOWER

      It's bad to count on rookies....that having been said......bring on the draft!


      I wish I could give a educated guess on what TT will do but he's a bit unpredictable. I don't have a clue. I'm thinking the Moss deal goes down and late in the season you guys will be pissing and moaning about the guy. like every fan does when he joins their team. I never realized what a bunch of Moss fans you guys were....LOL....I still have to run that JSO search....

      As for the Vikes.....hard to say. I hope they draft Peterson or Landry. If not, move back and grab either Anderson at DE, Carricker, Bowe, Meacham or Ginn Jr.

        Is this thread gonna suffer big-time if TT trades his #1 pick for LJ, or will you guys still be trying to out-Kiper Kiper?
        I can't run no more
        With that lawless crowd
        While the killers in high places
        Say their prayers out loud
        But they've summoned, they've summoned up
        A thundercloud
        They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

          I can't out Kiper Kiper. I don't have his hair.

            I've always praised Moss (and Culpepper for that matter) for his play. Some of the stuff he does is stupid, but I don't think he's a bad guy or a guy his teammates hate (Terrell Owens). For the right price (and I think a 3rd would be the right price, nothing higher), I say bring him on. It's worth the shot. 3rd round picks are a crapshoot and we'd still have an extra pick left in the draft. Maybe Thompson can trade down to gather an extra 3rd round pick. If so, it would be like trading Moss and a lower 1st for our 1st.

                Which draft for which GM is not crucial? You think Matt Millen is kicking back, thinking it's no biggie if he blows another draft? You think Belichick and the GM there (whose name is Scott something-or-other) are thinking they don't need an excellent draft to carry on, as their linebacker corp is aging and their receivers are pedestrian? Man, it's crucial for everyone.

                I happen to think the draft is also TT's forte. I believe too that the scouting department does a really nice job on the lesser-known guys, the ones we don't hear about but end up as the Tony Fishers and Cullen Jenkinses of the draft - free agent guys who don't get drafted. So we all focus on players we can read about, which is natural, but we forget that some nobody who is signed after the draft, or some nobody who is a seventh round pick, may become a Donald Driver or a Scott Wells.

                It's going to be good, Packnut. TT's got this team on the right track, and barring major injuries I think they'll be a playoff team in 2008.

                Fritz, as usual you are a voice of wisdom & reason.
                I agree completely.

                  I think that, obviously, if we don't have a #1 pick it lessens the excitement. However, I'll still be here, mocking everything Kiper says and making notes on what he says about players so I can see what a clown he is at the end of the season. It's a tradition.

                    Think about this...Talking about the Raiders. If they hadn't passed on Matt Leinart last year, they are taking Calvin JOhnson this year and wowzer.

                        Getting ready - I'm 12 time zones away so the draft starts at 1am for me here!!! Some guys are going out to the bars tonight, but I'll be in my room chatting with the rats

                        Wouldn't have it any other way. I just hope they make their pick by 4am so I can get some damn sleep!

                              Actually Jay Cutler was also there and would have been m y selection for the Raiders.
