steven wayne dennis @cbs11swd

Draft week starter=Source tells me one Jones wants pass rusher w 1st pick, other Jones wants secondary help. Coach Garrett break tie?




Does this guy have credibility?


Anyway, one wants Barron and the other wants? Ingram? which other pass-rusher is worth #14?

Steve Dennis?

I would guess he's got some connections.

He works with Babe

So much will depend on who is available at the time...we know there is always a surprise or two in there somewhere

My guess is Jerry is the one that wants secondary help given his statements on the defensive front. I wonder if it's a question of (a) sitting tight thinking Barron will be there and (b) trading up for Fletcher Cox.

Im wondering how much we like Brockers considering every NFL guy is so fascinated with see'ing him in the pro's.

Hope Tom C doesn't find out he doesn't have a vote anymore. Seriously, as if Jerry, Stephen, and Garrett each have 1 equal vote and that's how they pick players? This is just silly.

There's no way they are depending on Ingram being available at 14. So that brings up the question of how interested are we in Mercilus or Perry.

Pretty disappointing neither wants OL help.

Im sure they do but they probably don't see much value in round 1.


You gotta get the DB's and DL early.

or a "surprise" like McLellin or Chandler Jones, even if it involves a trade down

JG cannot stand Dennis' condescending tone. Did any of you catch some the exchanges between them last year?

Jerry doesn't want to pay Jenkins 10 million a year after 2012, so he wants a CB.

Stephen doesn't want to pay Spencer 9 million a year this year, so he wants a OLB.

We will see on Thursday.

I hope the Jones's take their disagreement back home and leave the drafting to the professionals.

I only want Secondary if his the name is Barron.
I only want PR if his name is Cox
I want DeCastro.

That is a great point.

I don't think Jerry is much of a Mike Jenkins fan anyways. He's called him out on his toughness before.



I like Mike Jenkins but he isn't a leader type of guy but he'll play up or down to however the rest of the team is performing.

Yeah, no value if keeping your QB healthy.

Rather then try to make sure he isn't injured, just get a better backup.

An honest question, not running down your thoughts, because as a whole I agree with your thoughts, although I would also want Pass Rush if his name is Ingram.

Would you not want Pass Rush if his name is Ingram?

No, it is just different than what all the successful teams in the league do. The fact that it hasn't worked in 16 years or so doesn't matter apparently.

I've been assured that Jerry is just a figurehead and his role is primarily to just "read reports" and call the draft picks.

So, who exactly do Garrett and Ryan want? Does that even matter?
