The premise of him falling out of the top ten, and the idea that there are 3rbs better than him makes me giggle like a school girl.

hehehehhehehehe

So, this must be where the unrealistic dreamers' room is.....cool. I think we can get DMAC w/the #22 pick, and Dorsey w/the #28 pick. Then, we can grab Aqib Alib w/the #61 spot. We shouldn't have any trouble getting Limas Sweed at #92, even though he ran something like a 4.45 40 at the Combine.....haha.
Wow, this IS fun.

Seriously, though, here's hoping that sanity will reign on April 26, (my b/day, by the way---what a way to celebrate your birthday, 'eh?) As some of the tests showed at the Combine this week, there are plenty of excellent RBs to go around in this draft. I was leaning toward Jamaal Charles after watching his highlights from his career in the Texas site. The kid is not only fast, but quick twitched & shifty. He ran for a lot of yards & TDs while a Longhorn.

But, you just can't ignore what Chris Johnson has done. He led the nation in all-purpose yards last year, and that's just what we need from a complementary back. Then, when he blew everyone away at the Combine w/a legitimate 4.24 40, that sealed it for me. Of course, I think it helped catapult him from a late 2nd-early 3rd, to a late 1st. I would have no problem taking either Limas Sweed or Aqib Talib w/the #22nd & Johnson w/the #28. If we don't get a WR in the 1st, then there's always going to be an Andre Caldwell type we can grab in the 2nd. He ran a 4.37 at the Combine, & is the all-time receiving leader in Florida history. He also looked very good during Senior Bowl week. Can you imagine having a RB who runs a 4.24 & a WR running a 4.37? Speed kills.

If JJ trades up for anything, he should trade up for a NT. Fergy isn't getting any younger, and there is really no legitimate NT behind him. Remember, the NT is the foundation of the 3-4, and Sedrick Ellis would work perfectly in a Phillips attack mode defense.

JMHO......in the dream room, that is.

It would be a good move on their part.
Are you serious?

After the 2006 season the Texans looked kinda dumb for passing on Bush and V. Young to select Mario Williams. A year later and they now look like they knew what the **** they were doin'. Wow. What a difference a year makes.

The Texans don't owe nothin' to nobody. They made a solid pick with the Williams selection.

McFadden falling to #22 is the most retarded thing I have ever heard. That 4.27 made him a Top 10 lock.
