At the end of the first half I was convinced the fumble and the awarding of :01 were both prime examples of getting Ed Hochuli'ed! The fumble being very reminiscent to his call of the Cutler fumble. Both calls were quick whistles. Notorious for Hocheli, he sucks.

Since nobody answered your question...
According to the chart, no, a 1st and 3rd wouldn't be enough to move up from #5 to #1, hypothetically speaking. In fact, all of your picks wouldn't be enough to move up from #5 to #1. But that's just the chart. In reality, it's much more feasible. In 2001 Atlanta traded the #5 overall pick and the fifth pick in the third round for the #1 overall pick and drafted Michael Vick. The Chargers took LT at #5 and some bum CB in the third.
According to the chart this is true.
Here is a brief reasoning IMHO why it became such a pain in the rear to trade for a top pick, thank Ditka.
When the Saints gave the skins their entire draft for Ricky Williams in 99', it should be noted that was for the #5 overall pick. Ricky Willams was the saints only draft pick in 1999. Also absurd in my mind is that the saints also had to give the skins their 1st and 3rd round picks in 2000. So it took 8 picks in 1999 and 2 in 2000(10 total picks, 2 1sts & 2 3rd's) just to get the 5th pick in 1999. Insane!

Nick Fairley, Robert Quinn, Da'Quan Bowers or Marcell Dareus. There doesn't appear to currently be an OT at the top of the draft board.

I'm not worried about the Panthers taking Luck. After drafting Clausen AND Pike in last year's draft, I can't imagine them taking another QB with the number 1 pick.
They actually also drafted Armani Edwards as a WR last year, but now he is the 3rd string QB with their injury problems, something to keep am eye on
-
One thing to take into account is broken ribs don't heal in less then three weeks, showed that he can play hurt and has toughness.
-
Nice to see them rally round Fitz. At least they're having fun despite being 1-8.
It's easy for the team to rally behind a QB with heart and guts. Great down field block fitz.
-
Murray was getting smacked with latehits and cheapshots by Nick Fairley yesterday and continued to get up and throw the ball well. It was fun watch. Prediction for the NFL 2011 season....Nick Fairley is most fined player in the league.
-
Sherrod shouldn't be going in the top 3.
Agreed. I don't see an Olinemen worth taking in the entire first round this year. Bottom line, we need Andrew Luck to declare for the draft. IMO and most experts he is the only bonafide franchise quarterback in this years draft.(although potentially looks like deep qb class too) While the D-line class looks the deapest in recent years. If we remain with a top 3pick we could possibly pull off a great draft.
for example.
round1pick1 QB Andrew Luck
round2pick1 whatever defensivelineman with first round value slips to this spot
round3pick1 OT Marcus Cannon 6'6 350
I would be happy with this kind of outcome.
-
he's a Jr, and short, and lefty, and not much of an arm
An accurate winner without the NFL body. Sounds like Flutie. If you ask me Rick McGlothlin should include the kid in his rankings. I think he is looking at the 09' Kellen Moore not the kid who is making all the throws this year. Not the Kellen Moore excelling in the 15+ yard pass. And McGlothlin tried to talk upon Cam Newtons problems. As long as he still plays his stock aint changing. Andrew Luck, I heard desmond howard say tonight he is the most nfl ready quarterback in the ncaa.

I LIKEY!!
Any word on where this guy is projected to go?
I would say that he reminds me more of Reggie White or Dwight Freeney more so than the great B. Smith. Bruce beat players with that incredible 1st step and counter moves. Reggie and Dwight are awesome using angles and the other player to obtain a release and get into the backfield. Quinn does not seem to have that Bruce Smith cat-like 1st step.
Which is not a knock by any means. He gets there!
I would love it if we could get a guy like this in the 2nd, after getting maybe a Luck in the 1st.
Or not. As long as he came to town and performed like that, I say just get him!
Quinn was a top five pick in EVERY experts mind coming into this season. The suspension hurts his stock because CFS didnt give him a shot to break the UNC sack record? I dont really get it. IMHO, all the talented players are getting compensated, nothing has changed since Reggie Bush's days. It doesnt sound like the guy has real character issues. 3 time heavyweight Highschool wrestling champ that worked at BurgerKing. He was recruited by Auburn, Alabama, and UNC, he took their money. He survived and overcame a brain tumor in highschool. I dont think the guy makes it to the second round, he's fighter with good character.
I would love to see Quinn, Dareus, Bowers, Clayborn, Ayers or Fairley wearing Buffalo Bills Jerseys. Real deep DL class this year. Praying we get Andrew Luck plus one of those guys in the top of the second.
-
I'd give up to 10 grand to keep the bills in buffalo.
I have $400 to my name right now and would give that.

This is the greatest trick play I have seen and to win the fiesta bowl
-
Brohm only makes 470,000 so its okay that he's just the backup. At the end of the year nobody will want him because he will have proven nothing. We draft Andrew Luck to ride the pine behind fitzy for 1-2 years and we have to resign Brohm for peanuts as the insurance 3rd stringer for years to come.
-
Cam's the Man! A man among boys on the field, that's not going to change on the next level either. Plus could take him in the second round and address either OL or DL with the top pick. Newton-its a football name.
-
I like the Auburn guy for round two. But his name is Nick Fairley.
Cam Newton's stock is rising but I think I saw on a mock draft him go 125th overall or something.
-
I agree that the guys you listed are probably our most talented. But we would have zero pass rush in this scenario. Not that we have much of one now, but this would likely eliminate the little bit we do have.
KC ran the ball for 274 yards on us. Getting the ball run your throat is the most frustrating football to watch. The only reason imo we were in the game was Charlie Weis choosing to not run.
-
1st yr dlineman rarely make a significant impact, esp, highly drafted dlineman.
Unless your name is DonkeyKong Suh!
I also thought Spiller was used fine against KC. We just couldn't move the ball on the ground at all and then they were chewing up so much clock, it was painful to watch. Spiller ran away from coverage and was wide open for a long homerun TD but fitzy missed him by 5 yards.
-
Do coaches have really great timing on the play when they do that or do they tell the ref they want a timeout when they snap the ball? I hate the rule, its tacky.

He's been pulling the trigger. Making reads. He's making the outside the hash throws when he reads single coverage by pulling the trigger before safety help can arrive. He's got the arm, his head is making the right calls right now. But expect the INT's to come to. IMO, when a QB has less then 10, he was lucky with the bounce of the ball.
-
my thoughts as well. It is in a more professional setting than my show, but they should give him more than one take to avoid verbal "faux pas" like that.
that was probably his best take. But I like the guy.
-
Dam, LSU couldn't stop him!
He's only a JR tho, expected to declare?
I like how he goes about his business and doesnt over-celebrate. acts like he's been there before.
Yeah- he will declare. His huge year in the SEC is getting him noticed. He probably will go in the middle-end of the first round but might be available with the first pick in the 2nd round. In the Arkansas game he knocked Mallet out and Lee in the LSU game. I could imagine those names changing to Brady-Sanchez. 6'5" 298 and a QB killer.
-
Last week verse LSU Nick Fairley dominates double teams all game at DE and DT, and NT.
-
Hard to imagine Fitz making the Probowl. Unless he continues to produce at an extraordinary high level. If he remains really good for the next 25 games he will make the probowl played in 2012. Hard to imagine him getting the votes this year over Peyton Manning, M. Schaub, M. Sanchez, T. Brady, P. Rivers, K. Orton, J. Flacco. Even the latecomer Ben Rothlesraper still has a shot. Fitzy = odd man out for sure
with the #2 pick in the 2011 draft the buffalo bills pick?

Round 2. Pick 30something...Nick Fairley, Auburn. He will demand Brady to fear him, then hurt him. Sanchez will also have no chance.
