So Where Do We Pick?

[Teague31]

do we know the top 10 yet?

 

[The Quest for Six]

do we know the top 10 yet?

knowing Jerry, probably second round since he'll probably trade the first round pick.

Depends on the Seahawks. If they win, 9. If they lose, 10.

We got lucky then, because we could have been as low as 13th.

I heard we are 10 and 11 with a Seattle loss. Correct me if I'm wrong.

 

[newlander]

Which is it boys, so I'll know who to root for tonight?

 

[Bizwah]

I mean does it matter?

We're losing out on some guy that will single-handedly resurrect our franchise because we're not picking in the top six.

January 2
(4:00 PM: Not much settled in early games ... With Denver, which would have the #2 pick at the 2011 draft if it were held today, still to play today, not much was settled in the early games regarding the final first-round selection order for the upcoming draft. Losses by Cincinnati and Buffalo, though, at least mean that the Bengals will pick no lower than 3rd while the Bills will pick no lower than 4th.

(9:00 AM): Pair of top RBs enter draft … Junior RBs Shane Vereen of California and UConn’s Jordan Todman both announced late last night that they will be skipping their senior seasons and entering the 2011 NFL draft. Vereen is considered to be a late first or early second prospect, while Todman is a later second day possibility.

(12:01 AM): Draft order down to wire … While Carolina has already wrapped up the #1 pick at the 2011 draft, the rest of the early picks for this year’s lottery are still up for grabs as the NFL heads into the final week of the regular schedule. Denver, which currently has the 2nd pick overall were the drfat held today, will be home to San Diego, while Cincinnati, which would pick 3rd, will be in Baltimore and Buffalo, with the 4th selection, will be at the Jets in New York. Meanwhile, the 5th and 6th picks could be decided when Arizona plays at San Francisco. The full, final updated first-round selection order will be posted after tomorrow night’s game in Seattle against St. Louis.
Top senior QB hurt again … After battling an elbow injury all season, Florida State QB Christian Ponder was able to start last night’s Chick-fil-A Bowl against South Carolina, but suffered a concussion in the second quarter and did not play again. And it was hardly the kind of college finale that Ponder wants pro scouts to remember as he completed only one of 5 pass attempts for 6 yards when he was in there. Florida State held on though and defeated South Carolina 26-17 to finish the season with ten wins.

More invites to Mobile announced … The Senior Bowl has announced that TCU QB Andy Dalton, who led the Horned Frogs to an unbeaten season this year, has accepted an invitation to participate in this year’s all-star game. Dalton will be joined in Mobile by TCU WR Jeremy Kerley. Meanwhile, the Senior Bowl has also revealed that Iowa DE Adrian Clayborn, DT Christian Ballard and QB Ricky Stanzi will also be attending this year’s game. There is a good chance that Clayborn could be the highest-rated player for the 2011 draft in Mobile this year.

Hmm, if you could say trade barber or some player you dont plan on coming back next year, would you with say a 3rd or 4th rounder in 2012 to move up to take peterson or dt frailey?

how much do you zoners think would take to move up to about 4th or 5th spot of peterson or frailey are there?

or would you possibly trade down, if your picking 9th or 10 to say new england, take both of their # 1 picks, and get 2 good players in first round?

what would you zoners do?

You obviously have no comprehension of the importance of Draft.

Yes, much like the Texans of yesteryear rallied around "remember the Alamo!" the Cowboys will look back and remember this meaningless Week 17 victory over the Eagles second and third teamers as a franchise altering moment.

No one would give a used toothbrush for Marion Barber.

Personally, between moving up or moving down, I'd probably rather move down between 3-5 spots, pick up an extra 3rd or 4th rounder.

We will need to replace MBIII, Davis, Colombo, Ball at the minimum. And we definitely need some depth on the OL.

 

[rash]

i'm on board for that plan...
but its easier said than done

 

[newlander]

Man, I've HAD it with moving down guys: jerrah and his "scouting dept." don't draft well enough to move down: seriously. Stay at 9ish or move up.
