There is no way Holmgren/Heckert take a RB at #7 overall…or in the first round period. They invested a second round pick in 2010 with Montario Hardesty and like the kid. I also think Hillis eventually signs a 3 year deal.

If Colt McCoy proves to be “the guy” for them this year…and I’m far from sold on him…look for them to take a stud LB and a RT to solidify the line.

If Colt looks more like Brady Quinn than Drew Brees at the season’s end I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised to see them trade up to get Luck if a team like St. Louis or Jacksonville holds the #1 slot.

coop – Heyward plays DE. He will replace Keisel in 2013 years. If he is as good as Holmes was, I’ll take all the O$U players we can get.

The only place where the Defense is old in terms of depth is NT. they need a young replacement soon for Hampton, which I would wager is where they go in the 1st round next year.

I thought thats why they drafted Cam Heyward, where the F has he been. Oh, right, Ohio State, so he’s probably not very good in the NFL.

Texans secondary isn’t the best in the league by any means, but Jonathan Joseph has to be one of the most underrated corners in the league. That signing was a huge upgrade, I think they have greater concerns in the 1st round

kidding of course. I should just shut up and be thankful he didn’t make another hockey comment.

Arizona Cardinals – Vontaze Burfict, LB, Arizona St. – The Sun Devil stays local to bolster a meek defense. Would he punch out a Cardinal?

Cardinals don’t like to draft the local boys because they think they are smarter than that. See Suggs, Terrell. But if they did draft him he would certainly punch out Beanie Wells within the first 2 days of training camp.

Iowa players don’t count

they have a shitload of players in the NFL. I think Ohio State may only have 1 more player than them on current rosters.

TBL, what makes you think the Skins go LB

that’s the piece of paper that was drawn out of the hat. you got a problem with it, talk to the hat.

So the Texans need another secondary makeover? I would take more LB depth but that’s just me. DeMeco Ryans and his knees aren’t getting any younger.

Enough with the Mike Mitchell love, Babar. It’s all we hear about from you.

I won’t rest until he is sipping Mai Tais in Honolulu…even if I have to buy the ticket myself.

I think you’re missing what my actual point was. Burfict might be the first Defensive player off the board (I doubt it, but it’s not ridiculous) but for that to be pick #8 seems close to impossible

OHHHHH…ok. sorry, ive been ADD-ly switching back and forth between this and work all day and am missing a lot of shit. my bad.

i agree with that. only pass rushers and CB’s go that high unless it’s patrick willis.

Michael Floyd appears to be a man among boys out there. ND pretty much openly announces they are going to him and dare you to stop it.

TBL, what makes you think the Skins go LB, when clearly their offense is so anemic? Their first pick will be QB or WR, 100% book it.

spencer096 — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 20:26:00 +0000

On the other hand, the odds of Vontaze Burfict being the first defensive player picked at #8 have to be 3 million to one so this post is clearly a work in progress

im not so sure about that…burfict, for all his personality warts, is the perfect MLB for today’s NFL. he’s outrageously fast, as sure a tackler as there is and he’s very good in coverage. that offers quite a bit of flexibility against multiple WR fronts.

I think Michael Floyd is excluded as some kind of reverse jinx thing. I, too, like him a lot as a player. On the other hand, the odds of Vontaze Burfict being the first defensive player picked at #8 have to be 3 million to one so this post is clearly a work in progress

mike brewster will go before mike adams…book it, seal it, save it for later, all that good stuff.

four year starters at center that make all-american teams are more valuable than LT’s with no mean streak and off-field scandals that only play in 2/3 their college team’s games.

Marvin McNutt too.

I don’t see him in the first round.

Blackmon, Jeffrey, Flloyd, Broyles and Fuller are all ahead of him I would think.

Michael Floyd will be a first rounder. Cannot believe he is excluded from this list… dude is sick.

Marvin McNutt too.
