    How many times does Nix go on a long rant, take a breath, and then say, "The point I'm trying to make is..." God bless him.

    Hey Tim, Can you give us a general impression of what you're hearing about Flozell Adams around the league (an original Gailey pick)? Is the perception that he's shot, or wants too much money, or is waiting for an injury for a chance to start? Thanks in advance.

    Carrington is definitely a DE, not an OLB. I'd replace Ellison and Harris with Batten and Moats. I'd cut one of your OLinemen, probably Gaddis. I'd replace Gaddis' roster spot with Chris Ellis at OLB. I'd replace Klopfenstein with Stupar and probably the worst of the three QBs in camp with Brown.

    We signed someone who wasn't good enough for first team all-MEAC? I'm rooting for this guy.

    I basically agree. It just seems that we've said that about a lot of years over the past decade without ever realizing the promised payoff.

    He goes into it a little more on the post-draft podcast. The draft order was determined by the regular power rankings - five or so guys' rankings averaged. So, it's not just McShay saying we're the worst.

    As far as I understand the rules, until he signs his tender, we can talk to him as much as we want, bring him in for a workout, let the position coaches get to know him, etc.

    http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2010/...-jared-gaither/ No mention of an offer, though.

    I know it's not very meaningful to do these hindsight polls. Good thing we don't get charged by the topic.

    If this were true, then we would have jumped at the chance to get Clausen at a second-round rate. The fact is, the difference in salary by position selected is not all that great.

    Bill, I won't believe it is motivated by selling tickets until you (or anyone else) find one person that will say he wasn't buying tickets before, but will to see Spiller. I'm not sure that person exists. Now, if Spiller improves the offense to the point where they start winning games because of him, and that sells tickets, how can you fault that?

    Please show up again before tomorrow's picks.
  13. Tortured Soul
    Yes, lets stockpile third-round picks so that we can get more solid foundational players like Trent Edwards, Ashton Youboty, and Chris Ellis No strategy is better than any other. You just have to execute it.

    For shame, Lori.

    Who says we ever would have moved on from Donahoe/Mularkey?

    All I can say is that I hope the Bills don't know who they're going to get at 9. Because if they did, then they're drafting someone who they know has no shot of going in the top 8.

    1. He was not such a good QB guru in Tampa. 2. What if he says the only good QB in the draft is Bradford?

    http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/draft10/ins...%3fid%3d5120759 Anyone want to let us know who he has us taking?
  19. Tortured Soul
    FWIW, he did this crap in Georgia and Nevada - not Pittsburgh.
  20. Tortured Soul
    Tom Modrak has never traded up in his history. He doesn't make the calls.

    I appreciate that the stadiums are better. But the Metrodome was built for $68 mil, which is about $162 mil in today's dollars. Meanwhile, Target Field cost $545 mil and the Vikings want a new stadium for $870 mil.
  22. Tortured Soul
    You mean buildings built with price in mind?

    It's interesting that the projections for this year are very low overall. It'd be nice to see where the 2008 guys were projected, when Gholston and Derrick Harvey were the first two pass rushers off the board.
  24. Tortured Soul
    Agreed. My point (which I'm making in a kind of obnoxious way, sorry about that) is that it is just as difficult to say Nix made the right move.
  25. Tortured Soul
    I would love it. Anthony Davis is my choice for the top pick. I don't think Cam Thomas will be available in the third, though. Don't really recognize the rest of the names.
