[RamziD]

I have a feeling it's going to happen again.

 

[BourbonBalz]

If it does, someone should just go ahead and kill the whole damn front office.

Johnson S, Alabama is my guess.

 

[DR.WARE]

[RamziD]

Johnson S, Alabama is my guess.

i hope so, but there's 3-4 players we can take here which usually means we try to trade down.

You guys should hang out in the draft zone more often.

Seriously, he was one of the most-desired ILBs by most people there. He's not some unknown reach.

As a side note......Al Davis is still insane.

Lol, exactly. I think every player has been "evaluated" by us at one point or another in the draft zone.

I'm not complaining....I just think he could've been had with our next pick. We need to get a safety with the next one...and it's all good.
