So what are you going to do w/o mcnabb?

Philly fans will be crying in their beer before its over. Kolb is NOT the answer. Donovan may just get his ring yet.....

Pats pick up WR Torry Holt.

Good bit of business on the cheap. Add him to Moss , Welker when he comes back from injury, And the WR core does not look that bad. Also look out for WR Brandon Tate to make some sort of impact this year also. Missed most of last season due to injury.

Donovan had his chances in Philly

He just could not get the job done.

At the end of the day they needed to go in another direction, so did he for that matter.

Texans are weak at RB and CB. I'd be very disappointed with a first pick being used on anything but one of those positions.

RB has been a perennial problem, with a few bright spots. Steve Slaton in 08 was awesome. 09 - not so much. Chris Brown single handedly lost us at least 2 games with his fumbles. Schaub is turning into a fine QB...it only makes sense to have a run threat to set up the pass.

CB has a hole with the departure of Dunta Robinson. "Doonta" was never as good as they made him out to be here. I saw him get burned plenty of times...he was very overrated in Houston. Not worth the money he wanted.

Meh. He couldn't get it done here, so I agree that it was time to go. I do expect him to have plenty of success in Washington, so yes, he may win the big one still.

Philly's going to be in a rebuilding cycle for a few years. Kolb will be an interim QB, along the lines of Bobby Hoying and Ty Detmer. The Eagles had a good run. They're overdue for a few down seasons.

OK - someone just shoot me now.....
Panthers pick a spoled brat of a QB that we dont need - reach for a WR when there were better WR's on the board, then trade next years second for ANOTHER QB that would have stuck around till at least the 5th or 6th round - if not later.....

I wish I drank - I really need one or four right now....

Wow, the Raider defy expectations and actually have a smart, solid draft.

They waited to get Bruce Campbell in the 4th round when a lot of people thought the Raiders would reeeee-ach and take him in the 1st. They selected the best linebacker in the draft with their first pick. And their 2nd, 3rd and extra 4th read pretty well in the pre-draft analysis.

Ok, nice. Now if JaMeat Loaf would show up at camp weighing 250 and knowing the playbook, we might have us some football.

CaptainHaplo · 04-24-10, 12:35 PM

Yea the raiders did really well for themselves this time....

Want to work out something for Clausen - we could trade ya for Jamarcus and tell him not to worry with his weight - he can be our new fullback.

I'm still scratching my head over us getting Clausen. I would have rather we selected McCoy, though we really should have gone with Golden Tate or maybe Decker - we need WR help, not qb. Word is that the Armanti Edwards pick is to roll him to WR and have him also be a bit of a wildcat option - but I don't know that I like that plan. Add in we need help on the D line - and its in the 5th round and we still haven't picked up a D-line guy (though we may use Norwood as a 3rd down DE off the edge) - I am wondering if my fron't office went to the Al Davis Draft school this time around. Figures - Al would be helping the Panthers - and so the Raiders make good picks.

Raiders really have improved some this draft - hope they keep it up.

mr chris · 04-24-10, 01:36 PM

@ Neal
Ja Meatloaf Who?
Raiders Trade for Skins QB Campbell

Raiders definitely got better with that decision. Russell is done, and Jason will get to start fresh.

Edit - latest word is that Jamarcus has hit 300lbs.....

Onkel Neal · 04-28-10, 12:32 AM

Yeah. Biggest bust ever. In every way. What a shame. The salary system in the NFL is really stupid.

Well, the Ray-dahs can always move him over to linebacker.
