NFL Draft 2008

[chitownxo]

I'm hoping the Bears get a good Offensive Lineman. Chris Williams, the OT out of Vandy would be a great pick. Knowing the Bears, they'll pick someone they'll call "The best athlete available" whether or not he can fill a need or even contribute.

As for the later rounds, I'm not sure if I want them to get another QB. It's not that I think Rex is the answer, I'm not sure if I can handle a couple of sub-par years while the new QB gets on the job training.

Lordy knows you guys can use a QB....just liek we can but I don't feel good about Ravens picking QBs....

My son and I will be glued to the TV to see where our awesome USC Trojans go - John David Booty, Fred Davis, Sam Baker, Sedrick Ellis, Keith Rivers and Chilo Rachel also Terrell Thomas - Fight On!

It'd be neat to get one of these Trojans on our Atlanta Falcons team.

My husband thinks I am nuts but I just LOVE watching Draft Day!!!

Vernon Gholston...


In high school, he wasn't interested in football. He wanted to be a body builder

I'll check this thread once the good 'old Browns finally get to make some picks in what.... the fourth round? SO GLAD we traded away all our early round picks for benchwarmers like Brady Quinn......

Once again, I'm left shaking my head at the picks made by the Lions and the Eagles...

Hey now, Brady is my neighbor.

But, I agree with you. It was a waste. What I think was so ironic about last year's drafts were that Joe Thomas and Brady live in the same town (yes, me too), about 1 mile apart. Joe lives in a newer, middle class neighborhood in a modest sub-division and Brady lives in the most expensive sub-division. We know who negotiated a better contract.

At least Brady now has a better hair cut than he did last year.

I think the ravens did ok with thier picks but we are still left with no viable veteran QB to teach the youngins and I am not confident in Kyle Boller training this crew and by the fatc that the ravens have drafted 2 QBs within the last 2 years means that Boller may finally be making his exit pretty soon....

He can afford a better haircut! (Wonder if John Edwards' stylist is available?)

So far I like how we've drafted, but the QB questions scares me. This is the franchise that thought Cade McNown was a star.
