a wideout in the second and 2 tightends in the 3rd will that make us better .........NO WE NEED A PASSRUSHER AND A RUNSTUFFING DT

We understand that's what you want, okay? You don't need to keep making topic after topic about this. You're numerous posts aren't going to change anyone's opinion. We've all got our hopes in the draft. Just let people post what they think will be helpful, and then if you disagree make sensible posts. Blasting people about taking something other than you want isn't going to earn you respect.

If you get the chance to take DMC do you take him? I say no. Too much money. I understand why you would want him, he's the best RB in college. I just think if you want a RB you can get one later. Maybe even the second or third round.

If I was Gm I'm going Defense til the cow's come home, then I go get me a stud free agent. A. Haynesworth or Suggs, maybe even Jason Taylor. If I get someone big in the free agent market on D before the draft then maybe , just maybe, I'd consider going after some more weapons on Offense.

We took Irons last year in the 2nd. I would only use a 1st day pick on a RB if it's McFadden. After that, I see no reason why a RB should be picked higher than the 5th round for us.

I think that everybody knows that we need a great pass rusher and the big runstopper is needed but its not like we have a terrible run defense. McFadden would help us out alot to. right now we do not have anybody at the end of the game who we no can just run with it to keep getting the first and running out the clock. He would help to also keep defenses honest and not be able cover are WR with 2 or more people. I an bit saying that he should be are first choice to draft because we have defensive problems. Also D-line is deep this year so we dont need to draft one in the first round.

I'm just trying to help you on the boards, you want to give attitude to everyone who disagrees with the Almighty truefan, then go ahead. I didn't realize how easily offended you'd get. I offer up a little advice and you freak out. Hmmm.

It's okay. I know everyone is entitled to their opinion and there's nothing wrong with that. Sometimes you need to take a deep breath and try and understand where people are coming from. I use to jump on people when I disagreed with them and I had my share of run ins, but now I take my time and look at where they're coming from then I'll give my opinion in a calm manner, but I still get fumed every once in a while, we're all human. It's helpful because you don't want to wind up as someone who nobody gives a second thought to and disregards anything they post. It's always good to have more logical fans so we can all have big logical talks.

Okay, I think McFadden could help because he's an explosive RB and would be a good RB with our new O-line. Our O-line could open up holes which is what we needed with Rudi, but with Whitworth and Ghiaciuc in there, our runs are better designed to go outside and we need a speeed back which McFadden is. Watson will be 31 and I don't think he can carry the load, he mentioned that he couldn't believe how he felt in a negative manner. Perry has lost his spirit and is made of glass. Irons is coming off a big knee injury, and I don't think 3D is designed to be a premiere back.

I think the use of Felix Jones helped McFadden hold onto some energy and power so he doesn't get worn out or overused like Perry was for us. I will say though that we won't get him since we're improving a little and his stock has shot up, so I'm not looking for us to grab him.

I was never really objeced to grabbing some D-line. It's just that this is going to be a very deep draft when it comes to DTs and DEs this year. If we get a few more victories, then I wouldn't object to grabbing Frank Okam. When we were being projected in the top 10, that's when McFadden made sense, but if we wond up somewhere around the 15th pick, then Okam would make sense. However, I still think that we're going to need to grab offense, I'm assuming that we have 4 picks in the first 3 rounds. I say we go 2 offense and defense.

well it's Obvious who i want to get in this draft(VERN) but we have other options in the draft with fast running backs like ray rice we can get in the second (hope not)or 3rd like ap from the sooners fast can catch and make people miss but a passrusher we need to get the best and a great space eater in the second like okam we agree on this guy but i think he will drop to the second round if he does not get red bryant

The only RB I would grab would be McFadden. There are some good RBs in the draft, but I wouldn't use a pick on a RB in the 2nd or 3rd round. I would rather wait till the 5th or later to bring one in. I think we should grab an OT somewhere. We have no clue what's going on with Willie. Lately, it's he's doing good in practice and then doesn't dress for the game. There's no telling how much his body has left and I would like to grab Barry Richardson from Clemson. I also think that we'll need to grab a WR. TJ will be a FA after next season and I think he'll want to test the FA waters to see if he can get a lot of money and/or the #1 WR spot on another team. Chad is having a roller coaster type year and Henry is one move away from a CFL career. I think we need to get someone and groom them for the future. Holt and Chatman will not be effective #3s.

how about stevie johnson from uk

Bengal Dude

Hadn't heard of him, but he looks like an interesting prospect. He's only had one game where his receiving average was under 10 yards. He seems like he could be 3rd-4th rounder prospect. I'm really looking at James Hardy from Indiana. I think he can be an effective returner while he learnes, but then develop into a solid WR for us.

he's a deep threat from he's like 6'3 or 6'4 with speed but the guy from hoosiers is nice i heard some nice things about him what about keenan burton from uk

He doesn't seem as impressive as the other guy. I think combine is going to make or break him when it comes to his draft position.

I see Burton being a special team player.

Stevie Johnson is a deep threat and he could go in the 3rd round, probably same with Burton.

Burton was projected to be a first round draft pick this year. Now.. not so much. Injuries have hurt him.

We need to draft Kevin Smith who I believe is a senior last time I looked. This guy is the reformation of Barry Sanders.
