The only person worth taking at this point in the first round is Brady Quinn and I don't see TT doing that. Look for him to trade out of the first round, possibly with Oakland for Moss or the Chiefs for Johnson. I could be wrong about him not taking Quinn but I would be surprised if he did because he has a first round bust at QB that only he can't see as a bust right now.

I can't believe some of you guys, at 16 there will be atleast 3 or 4 good prospects to choose from.

I can't believe some of you guys who thinks it's okay to overpay someone because they were selected in the 1st round. Face it, there is no one worthy of a first round pick left accept Quinn. Why pay for mediocrity? Anyone left on the board besides Quinn is worthy of a 2nd round or later pick.

You must be joking, Meachem is a 6'2" reciever who can run a 4.4 forty has a good vertical and soft hands, Revis is in the mold of an Al Harris, but faster, and gives us a great return man. That's not even saying anything about Carriker, Branch, Hall, Olsen, the list goes on.

Possible Trade?

Packers - Dolphins

Good idea. I think this would be possible.

For Ginn?

It would be for picks *lots of them)........including the Dolphins early second rounder.......if they have one. Maybe include Chambers? I don't think the Fins have enough early picks left though.

Basically so they can get quinn. i mean think about it 3 secounds and 2 thirds

Do the Fins have enough picks laying around to do that?

[MasonCrosby]

and carriker is gone...

Ballhawk-

Not to drag this out, but I think a pass rusher is the second most important position in football after the QB...

well it's a non-point, the Rams snagged him anyway

[Rastak]

If TT had to draft someone and Quinn was there, if I were him I would take him and look to trade Rodgers for Moss and a 4th.

Davis give the Packers a 4th? He'd have to be commited to a mental institution....(which might have to happen anyway).

Why would the radiers want rogders now?

Carriker to Rams....good pick


Adam Carriker
DE | (6'6", 296, 4.9) | NEBRASKA

Scouts Grade: 94



Strengths: Possesses outstanding size and good quickness for his size. Is tall, well-built and powerful. Shows adequate initial quickness and good agility for such a bigger DE prospect. He plays with adequate leverage and shows the base to take on blocks versus the run. He possesses very good upper body strength and will jar offensive linemen with his initial punch. He does a great job of anchoring at the line of scrimmage when teams run at him. He takes solid angles in pursuit and has become a reliable wrap-up tackler in space. Also is a powerful hitter. Shows good instincts as a pass rusher. Displays a wide array of power moves and is relentless in pursuit. Not a speed-rusher type off the edge, but he is productive because as an interior penetrator thanks to his quickness, power, versatility and motor.

Weaknesses: Lacks ideal top-end speed. Does not show the speed or closing burst to consistently turn the corner as an edge rusher in the NFL. Doesn't have much value as an every-down defensive end in a 4-3 scheme. Is a power-end type that will only fit well as a DE in a 3-4 or as a rotating DE/DT in a 4-3. He must continue to improve his hand-usage in order to consistently disengage quicker. Gets cut a lot and needs to do a better job of protecting his lower body.

Overall: Carriker was redshirted in 2002. He played in nine games in 2003, missed three games with an ankle injury, and finished the year with three total tackles, one tackle for loss, and one sack. In 2004, he appeared in 10 games (eight starts), missed more time with an ankle injury, and recorded 36 total tackles, seven tackles for loss, and three sacks for the season. Carriker then started all 12 games in 2005 at "base" defensive end, made 43 total tackles, 17 tackles for loss, 9.5 sacks, and forced one fumble earning First Team All-Big 12 recognition from the Associated Press. Carriker started all 14 games in 2006 and finished with 52 total tackles, 16 tackles for loss, seven sacks, one interception and one blocked kick earning Associated Press All-Big 12 First Team honors for the second consecutive year.
Carriker displays an impressive combination of size, agility and power. He came on strong during his final two seasons at Nebraska and he carried that momentum over into the postseason, where he impressed at the Senior Bowl, combine and Pro Day. While he lacks elite top-end speed to consistently turn the corner as a perimeter pass rusher in the NFL, Carriker should still be an effective pass rusher due to his relentless motor, instincts and quickness for his size. His versatility also helps his draft stock, as he can play inside in a 3-4 and outside in a 4-3. Because there is such a big market in the NFL right now for a player with his unique blend of skills, Carriker could easily become top-15 pick in April's draft.

What about Quinn?

You would getting a really good QB.

Why is he still on the board?

Because Miami has taken over as the dumbest franchise.

KGB is still useful is he's fresh. I can see where you are coming from, though.

[pacfan]

Carriker to ST Lou-moot point now.

I'm hoping TT is fielding trade offers right now

[Tarlam!]

We're going Quinn.

It looks to me like not many teams want to move up right now which means no trade down.
