Exception to the rule my friend. What other DT's have they produced from that system?

Geez, no tackles from Florida State please. How many busts have they produced at the position now? Plus he'll be playing in terrible weather - horrible.

On the football field, he is in his element. He can focus on doing what he's been practicing for his whole life. Ever watch those NHL award shows? Most of the guys who win are so nervous up there they can barely get their words straight. Totally different experiences. It's not just the number of people you are faced with, but more what the situation demands of you that defines how you behave.

Public speaking has reduced many giants to mere mortals. There's just something about getting up in front of a bunch of people on stage that makes some crumple up like paper bags and others become huge sensations. It bears no indication whatsoever on anyone's true personality or off-stage abilities.

Would love Mathis on this team. Don't know why they haven't tried to sign him, unless they can't fit in under their cap the number they feel it would take to blow him out of Indy's...

Edwards was horrible. Great with the media, couldn't manage a game to save his life. He is so overrated.

All those years of holding onto 3 promising goalies, waiting for the perfect time to make a move, and all they have to show for it is a mere 2nd round pick. Way to go, Buffalo.

5 Wide, my new best friend. He knows the score!

I still can't believe they cut Milloy, was a 96! That's only 4 percentage points away from being a perfect player!!!

He's an 84 in Madden. Gandy is a 74. I say go for it.

That analogy would work if your windows weren't also broken, allowing rain, snow and wind in.

Davis is too good to pass up. Only Mario and the Brick score higher on my personal wishlist for that first pick. Ngata is nice, but #4 in my eyes. Think about it this way... we're not going to contend next year so why worry about plugging all our holes in one off-season? Plug the ones you can as best you can and do the same for the others later. I'd rather draft an impact TE and sign an impact S and DT then acquire a bunch of decent OL/DL/S/TEs. Short-term that strategy would leave us hole-less all around, but no potential to dominate anywhere. We want this team to be great in 3 years, not good in 1.

He doesn't even like football.

Who we draft will depend heavily on who gets signed. Unless DaBrick falls to 8, we aren't picking an O-Lineman anyway. On the D-Line, I'd only consider Williams or Ngata worth selecting there. Davis rounds out the 4 guys I want and that the team needs. (edit: long-term, Huff makes a lot of sense here, too) There are numerous advantages to drafting a dynamic TE like Davis. For one, there's offsetting the Moulds loss and the decreased necessity to pass out of 3 WR/4 WR sets. Also, as with Crumpler, Shockey, and Gates, having a go-to TE who you can always count on to dump the ball off to does wonders for an up-and-coming QB. Combine that with a genuine deep threat receiver and a high-end RB and you've given your QB enough weapons to succeed (granted, of course, he has to have more than 1.7 seconds to make a decision on where he wants to go with the ball). If JP can't succeed with Evans, Davis and McGahee and a revamped, albeit not dominant by any means, OL, than I think we'll be a lot closer to having our answer on whether or not he's got what it takes.

Draft 'em both. It's not like Adams is going to be around forever and if this guy is as good as you say, you'd solve the DT position for years to come.

Age is too much of a concern. Clements is at the same level of talent, but much younger and likely cheaper. There are too many other, more pressing needs than CB to waste a boatload of cash on.

Why not call their PR department? A massive calling of support for Mike to the PR dept will definitely filter through the offices and be heard by some of the higher-ups... that is what they're there for.
