Well i will move to another approach after yesterday's gut wrenching loss.

I believe it was a perfect example of what we need to focus on in the draft.

O-line has been a need for Parcell's whole tenure, still is.

And i believe we saw that we need to draft a QB next year.

Bledsoe may be gone after this year, and who do we have behind Romo? Baker? i do not like having an undrafted FA as the backup to another undrafted FA. Im sure they will bring in another vet if Bledsoe goes, however we need to draft one desperately.

and in my opinion, i can sum it in two words:

Jamarcus Russell

I'd like to see us trade our next 2 first round draft picks for a chance at getting Brady Quinn.

Parcells doesn't like rook QBs (minus Bledsoe), so drafting the QB of the future won't matter yet since he'll still want a vet to lead the team. What QBs are in FA next year?

Anyone have that link that was circulating on here a few weeks back about 2007 FA at each spot? I lost it. Top 5 of each it had.

Have you heard of Chad Pennington?

Quinn may not be the first overall pick, so this could become possible. If the Raiders are sold on Walters by the end of this season they would be out of the running (maybe they would take Adrian Peterson). The Titans have their QB of the future, so do the 49ers, Packers, Cardinals, and Jets (maybe). Calvin Johnson could be ahead of Quinn. I have not put a lot of thought or prediction into this, but guessing Quinn could slide to 3-4 and a trade up to here may not be as far of a jump as we all hoped before the season started. Give me Quinn.

Regarding the O-line, I agree with you.

Regarding the QB, I don't see it. I don't understand how the failure of the caretaker QB who likely will be out of the mix next season condemns our backup who has been groomed for 3 years. Obviously once the reigns are handed over we will need a quality backup, but that doesn't have to be handled in the draft - at least not with a high pick. A veteran who can continue to mentor Romo might be the better choice.

Brian Brohm!

Iunno but it looks like we may be picking in the same spot as last year or somewhere close to it. If Brohm decides to declare he may drop to the late teens in the first round round and thats who we should draft. This guy is GOOD...

Jamarcus RussellI like Jamarcus, but it's a bad week to bring his name up. He fumbled a snap at a crucial moment and LSU lost the ball and the game. How is that dis-similar to Bledsoe's INT at a crucial moment yesterday?

i think the difference is that he did not play a bad game all game, and i do not believe he was responsible for their other loss against Auburn.

no QB is perfect, and i just think Russell is a good prospect

As a Florida Gator, I love Jamarcus Russell. His fumble along with his 3 PICKS sealed the deal in the Swamp. Not too sure hed be the best pick as our future starter.

I like Russell, but he does make some errors that leave you scratching your head.

I agree with a previous poster on Brohm unless we can get Quinn. Brohm's injury might be our blessing in disguise. He might land right in our laps.

:laugh2:

I bet you do. You Gators look good. With Auburn going down you might crack top 3.

Russell is a good prospect but he probably wont declare this year. The guy has a rocket for an arm and size is not an issue for him. He has decent mobility. The only negative about him is that he makes plenty of bad reads while forcing things to much.

Can you say Jason Campbell? No thanks.
Brohm is good, but that offense does not look like it has lost much without either he or Bush in the line-up, so it may be the system under Petrino.

Nothing wrong with a system QB if the team runs a Pro set and Louisville does. IMO.

They havent played anybody worth two cents since Brohm has gone down so thats probably why the offense hasnt lost a step. Not to mention Cantwell is a good QB and they are loaded with talent. If Brohms not back for the WVU game than they will obviously be in trouble, and you can write that down.

How about a complete 2007 FA list?

I am still very upset we did not go for Marcus McNeil...I don't think Anthony Fasano will ever live up to his draft status...he is not an impressive athlete...he is a glorified tackle...so why didn't we just draft a Tackle?

We got a couple of young guys with potential in McQ and Proctor. So really there is no need for a high draft choice on the O line. Columbo is getting better, Kosier seems to be good, and Gurode has been an animal. With McQ as the successor to Flot (maybe sooner then we think) and Proctor for Rivera we are in pretty good shape there. This line will get better - its just a matter of more playing time together this year and probably inserting the young guys next year. QB; now there is the question. We hve to get ROmo some real playing time this year to see what we have.

What's wrong with you people?

Have you lost your collective MINDS?

We need more LBs and TEs.

More LBs and TEs are what's needed around here, I say!

LBs & TEs.

Oh yeah, and get me another one of those scrawny return guys.

Yeah we need another Tight End to run the twin TE and double/triple tight end sets BETTERERERER. Lets draftededed Greg Olsen of Miami in the first round.

Then we need another Outside linebacker to have more players to rotaterererer in and out more betterrerer. Lets draft Earl Everrett or Anthony Waterseseses in the second round.
