I wouldn't believe this site simply because Blackmun looked embarrassingly bad.

On the radio coming in to work this morning 610 in Houston had a guy at yesterdays practice and he said Mcneil looked terrible also. I find it hilarious how people can read a couple of positives about some of these prospects and start gushing about wanting them on the team.

Have fun watching football while the rest of us work for a living.

Another hater. Don't hate, you chose your profession, don't be mad you can't watch football for a living.

from reading some JJT articles i dont think he watches much football either

I don't think the selection of possible "first round" offensive line talent is going to be as great as everyone thinks. I don't see any tackle available at #18 who's going to knock my socks off.

Question is what pass rush LB at 18 does knock your socks off

Honestly I'm not looking for a pass rush LB at 18.

I'd much rather have either:

A. A somewhat agile/speedy OLB- that can go from sideline to sideline.
B. A somewhat agile/speedy ILB.
C. A coverage safety.

It's Terrence Whitehead.

He's a bakcup..ive seen him play here the last 2 years. Good receiver, decent runner, good power, good blocker, just dont think he has the nessecary speed to suceed in the NFL though.

Saftey was what I was looking for there but then Landry didnt come out the bastid

as for ILB I havent given up hope on burnett

At OLB yes speedy sideline to sideline is needed but he has to have pass rush skills to compliment Ware otherwise teams will continue to double Wares side

Burnett was a rookie with some injuries. people were ready to write of Brady James too, Parcells knows LB's, and I think that Burnett will turn out just fine.

Totally agree with the OLB assesment. That's what held our D back. We dont have hte ability to hide our 4th rusher because all know it's Ware. Get us another one, give ZImmer another year with the 3-4 and we shall see a huge difference.

Thats how I feel as well

he never said that, didn't even imply it, just said that an OT could be taken in the 2nd round

Two separate NFL scouts said they would draft Cutler ahead of USC's Matt Leinart and Texas' Vince Young.

Forget about Cutler being around at 18

actually Summer Jones pretty much said what I been saying all along that we wouldnt take Oline in rd 1


Jones said the Cowboys would likely look at a lineman after the first round.

"Obviously these offensive linemen need to be looked at," Jones said. "Especially any time we can look at one, not the first [pick] but maybe later."
