BravinSeattle Posted December 12, 2005 Author Share Posted December 12, 2005 Listening to Vince Young on ESPN Gameday yesterday, he isn't gonna be available for the draft. He basically said that he will return to Texas next year. But man! I would take him over Leinart in a flash! 528872[/snapback] I'm going to wait and see what he does vs. USC but man he's a beast.

BravinSeattle Posted December 12, 2005 Author Share Posted December 12, 2005 Jahnyc, I think you are missing the point. A high pick gives you TONS of flexibility (usually). If we are sitting there, and Reggie Bush is on the board, we are in the money. Even if we decide we dont want Bush, we can get a kings ransom for the pick. Heck, ricky williams was worth a whole draft board! People will go crazy for him and leinert. I hope one of them is on the board when we pick so we CAN trade down and get our lineman. 528868[/snapback] Exactly. We might even get an extra 1st rounder just by trading down one spot!

BravinSeattle Posted December 12, 2005 Author Share Posted December 12, 2005 trade to NO, NYJ. or AZ... all need qbs or we could keep him and hope for the 3rd time is the charm in regards to california, easy going metrosexual quarterbacks. 528564[/snapback] Actually with NO looking like the next team in LA I think if he's on the board at our pick NO will pay dearly for him.

Who knows? I hope we end up w/ a great lineman, be it offensive (D'Brickashaw Ferguson maybe?) or defensive (Haloti Ngata, Gabe Watson-later after a trade down??).

Tcali Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 Don't forget Vince Ferragamo. Our man from Torrance. 528691[/snapback] Jack Kemp from LA .. .Lamonica from Fresno.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That reminds me: we really screwed the pooch by drafting that JD Williams guy from Fresno State some years back. We should stay away from corners too. ...and, didn't we get burned trying to draft a TE by the name of Tony Hunter? Put TE on the list as well... ...that Erik Flowers was a bust for us (nice jersey though), so I think we should also steer clear from drafting DEs from now on.

I hope we end up w/ a great lineman, be it offensive (D'Brickashaw Ferguson maybe?) or defensive (Haloti Ngata, Gabe Watson-later after a trade down??). 528945[/snapback] I can't see a team that's most likely going to be playing in Los Angeles passing up on a guy who's done it better than anyone over a two year period vs. a guy who's just done it for one. Don't get me wrong -- I'm sold on vince Young. But I think the USC v Texas game could be for the national championship and the first QB taken in the draft if Young has another monster bowl game and brings it home fro Texas.

Not saying they're going to end up the same players but I'd go with a mobile LT after Mike Willaims and Leonard Davis showing that massive OT's don't always dominate in the NFL as they did in college.

obie_wan Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 Green Bay already has Rodgers as their QB of the future 528560[/snapback] like the man said, GB could take a QB because Rogers is a total bust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BravinSeattle Posted December 12, 2005 Author Share Posted December 12, 2005 like the man said, GB could take a QB because Rogers is a total bust 529224[/snapback] I'm not so sure he's a but but he's certainly not the QB that Leinart is. Neither is Losman for that matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramius Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 like the man said, GB could take a QB because Rogers is a total bust 529224[/snapback] How does rogers qualify as a bust? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 Has he even had a chance to play this year? As long as Favre is there, he is not going to be starting, only sitting there being told to watch closely and watch videos of Favre glory days. You have to give a rookie a little more than a full year as a starter before you can actually call him a bust. Unless he shows up to a game after not even reading a playbook.

Billsjunkie Posted December 12, 2005 Share Posted December 12, 2005 Leinhart has a noodle arm for crying outloud. You would want him to throw in this Buffalo weather. JP will be fine and he has a cannon. We need help in the trenches not skill positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
