Jordan Palmer

"We should have traded all of our remaining picks(rounds 5-7) for more 2-3 rounders next year, then get a young backup that might actually have a chance to do a decent job for us or even start if the JC experiment fails. Dumbass draft all around now."

Since when can you trade 5-7 round picks for 2-3 rounders??

Palmer should be a decent 3 stringer. But what pissed me off is no DT or DE. I MEAN WTF!!?, we had 19 sacks last year! 19! Why didnt we trade Springs for a 3rd or 4th rounder? Hes probably going to get cut June 1 anyway.

i think what the defensive coaches are thinking is if they upgrade the secondary then that will allow them to blitz more.

I like it too. Hopefully he gets a shot to earn Collins' job.

Al is probably fuming right now lol.

You cant say anything bad about any picks untill they play

Typical solid draft by the skins no dline help. reminds me of the year acouple years ago when we drafted 2 or 3 FB instead of dlinemen.

Gibbs pretty much said he is a practice team kinda guy.

Nice pick up. Guess Bramlet's days are numbered now. Palmer should be the back up by '08, '09 at the latest.

The more I look at it, I REALLY like this pick. He's 6-6, 231 lbs, and he played some WR in high school, so he's gotta be really athletic. This past season he was 7th in the country in yds/gm, and completed 66% of his passes for 3600 yds and 26 TDs. Could be a solid backup for us. Look at his profile (he looks exactly like Carson):

NFL.com - Prospect Profiles (http://www.nfl.com/draft/profiles/2007/palmer_jordan)41 starts, 59% completion. Not bad.

It's so tough to project 6th round picks to the NFL. Obviously theres something glaringly lacking in their games that caused them to drop this far. Maybe he just didn't dominate lesser competition?

Tom Brady wants a word with you. That's right I'm saying it right now Jordan Palmer=Tom Brady ;)

I guess seeing that there were no DE left that could START and make an impact now that we go with other positions that we will need in then next couple yrs and go after dlinemen in FA
