4.67 slow??????
Emmitt ran about the same time and Cedric Benson ran about a 4.65 and is considered the #2 or if nothing else a top 8 pick. Clarett performed on the field and told a lie, I wish him luck and would not be surprised to see him go in the 4th or 5th round......
Will we draft him? not sure we might or wont and I would be happy to have him as JJ backup if nothing else, shoot maybe he can play a little FB he has the size and will do anything possible to make a team.......just a opinion folks!!!!
I think he will be a servicable back, he will be better than Cason, Lee, Anthony Thomas and a handfull of RBs in the NFL, that I do know.....

I wouldn't mind having him I think he has a load of talent and if anyone can get it out of him BP could. I would wait till the sixth round and then take him there heck he woudl come cheap and we may wind up with a great back... and good trade bait in a few years.....

If Clarett does fall to the sixth like Kiper thinks, I would have no problem throwing one of our compensatory picks on him. Beats picking up yet another kick returning prospect.

U funny huh, I mean funny right Cobra, because I know a couple funny man name cobra, I then can understand why ur name is Cobra, right Cobra :o .
QC did lead us to the playoffs, was better than VT, Only QB we had to lead us to the playoffs in 7 or so years.....
Clarett ain't the brightest bulb in tha house but he did perform at the highest level of college Football- the National Championship- and he performed great, period.....
He made a mistake and God knows he has learned and like I said Once I wish him the best of luck and if we do draft Clarett I will back him up 110%, regardless of his past......
Irvin, Newton, Eric Williams, and a host of other players had off field problems, I'm not talking about lying to the police which they probably did, but used Dope and still pass drug test meaning they lied.....
I wish him the best of luck, period Cobra, the funny man

Let's not even mention that loser Clarrett and his all-time greatness... (inhale) Emmitt Smith in the same breath, please.

Good point. It's nice to see fairness and objectiveness.
Did you know there are only 5000 Snow Leopards in the wild now and they are confined to Central Asia? However, the effective global population (those likely to reproduce) is less than half that number.

some folks have made some valid points about Clarret on several posts, yeah he did some stupid stuff, yeah he had too much talent and stardom too early, yeah he was taking advantage of the alum system bene's just like everyone else, but he very easily could've shut the heck up about it all. His big mouth got him in a little trouble, then when the spotlight turned on him, he tried to blame everyone else and those bridges burned pretty quickly. Kid has an infection called "victimitis."
Parcells is probably someone that could help cure it, but why would he want to babysit? I think Minnesota learned their lesson about problem children and I think a lot of other teams took notes. This draft is really deep with RBs that have been playing football the past two years. Bad workout, burnt bridges, bad attitude, deep draft position.....Clarret better thank the good Lord if he's even playing in the NFL next year. Maybe he'll be a Raider...
Still left to accomplish:
sign OT Winston or G Moore

I would agree some peoples mouth does tend to get them in hot water more times than not. Sort of like knowing when to fold them and when to hold them....

Clarett will go no later than the 5th round. Too talented, too much upside. I mean, Cecil Collins went in the 5th round...

What the hell does that prove????
This is a team who is battling several major injuries to
key players including Pro Bowl talents like Lee, Austin, Jenkins, Murray,
Carter and Ratliff. Other key starters missing include Costa, Smith, Church and
Coleman. That is 11 key players - that's half the starting lineup. Yet we still went 8-8.

Clarett is the biggest boom/bust pick in the draft. My bet is goes in the 4th as we start day 2.

Its not like Clarett robbed a store... Stole a laptop(Ned)... Beat his Wife(S.Rolle)...Attacked little kids(M.Harrison)...Ran over a civilian(Whichever Dallas CB did that a few years ago) or anything, he just had problems with the ncaa... I can say there have been worse players in the pro's. 4.6 range isnt that slow, if you recall you guys want M.Williams who runs a 4.59. Take him with a comp. pick. What do we have to lose?
