Word then was the Cowboys were eyeing Joey Thomas.

I was liking Randy Starks and Keary Colbert.

With hindsight, Madieu Williams would be nice but so would Keary Colbert even though Crayton has a chance to be as good imo.

Experts were saying Darnell Dockett was an underachiever which scared me off, looks like they missed the boat on him.

 

[zagnut]

Randy Starks or Madieu Williams, but I'm a Terps fan. That said, Starks is more of a 4-3 tackle and wouldn't especially fit in here anymore. Drafting him might have prevented drafting Spears or Canty the next year also. Williams would be starting at FS though.

Slim pickings. Not too many guys have contributed much more than our surgery addict.

 

[Tristan]

Madieu Williams, and then Shane Olivea (S.D. 7th) in the sixth.

 

[jumanji]

love randy starks and madieu williams...also loved michael boulware

 

[Billy Bullocks]

besides Boulware, isthat list that impressive?

 

[SuperSafety_31]

give me Madieu Williams...FS solved...

Wouldn't the NY Jets love a redo as well and take Emmitt instead of Blair Thomas...

 

[JBell]

besides Boulware, isthat list that impressive?

hell yea it is... madieu williams was a beast last season for cincy.. He would be a nice FS for us... Sean Jones is lookin nice for CLE too @ safety though he was on IR last year. and yea Boulware is lookin good for SEA..

3 nice young safeties we coulda had to pair up with Roy..

 

[dbair1967]

does it matter? it cant be undone

[AbeBeta]

and instead of Dwayne Goodrich id take:

We aren't the only team crying about bust DBs from the 2000 draft. How's Rashard Anderson looking to Carolina (23rd overall). They picked him instead of Ahmad Plummer (one of the only decent CBs in that draft). 2000 was an awful year for CBs and we took 3 of them. We got lucky on Edwards.

 

[Eskimo]

My preference would have been to take Justin Smiley with the pick we used to get Julius and then draft Julius with the #52 slot. I was really sure he was going to be available at the slot. A better option might have been to pick Smiley and then use a lower round pick to move up and secure Julius.

In terms of the players drafted below Rogers, I wouldn't have minded Starks at all at that slot.

 

[Hiero]

Keary Colbert!!!!!!!! man this guy is even better than I thought he would be when I was hoping we would take him.

I was pretty excited as well when we took Rogers, he was exactly what we needed at the time, its a huge shame that it doesnt seem to be working out. :bang2:

 

[Sitting Bull]

I actually wanted Peterman in the second (he was a fast-riser and had been mentioned as a possible 2nd rounder by some) or Joey Thomas from Montana State. Dockett was a talent but had a rep for being dumb, as I recall. I was surprised we took Rogers over Florida's Max Starks, who really dropped on draft day.

83 Dallas Stephen Peterman OG LSU

Yeah, yeah, yeah...I would have taken Marino...I would have taken Montana...

But to answer your question...
63 New England Marquise Hill DE LSU - He was a monster at LSU. What has he done so far?...I have no idea.

Then...

71 Tennessee (from Houston) Randy Starks DT Maryland...So now what?

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Madieu Williams, we would have our starting FS, hindsight is 20/20!
