30gut 03-06-2009, 12:29 AM Preferably players we're expected to look at for the 13th pick
1- Aaron Curry
2- Brian Orakpo
3- Jason Smith
3b-Eugene Monroe
3c- Michael Oher
Anyone else we should trade down for:
Rey Maualuga
Alex Mack
Clay Matthews
Brian Cushing
Max Unger
Connor Barwin
Knowshon Moreno
tootergray34 03-06-2009, 12:47 AM we should hold off on maulauga and draft offensive line...to be honest...I'd rather have big daddy BRANDON SPIKES in next years draft. I think he will be better anyways.
44ever 03-06-2009, 01:04 AM The first post of the thread says draft at 13, so including the likes of Eugene Monroe, Aaron Curry, and others kinda defeat the purpose of the thread(Because they will be long gone by the time we pick).:confused:
So would including 1.) Andre Smith-OT-#1 OT Pre-combine at 13 as you did. Post combine, "maybe". Lets hope.
The Goat 03-06-2009, 01:39 AM Just wanted to throw out there Maualuga won't fall below the 16th overall i.e. if he's on the board San Diego will be thrilled to take him.
... that said i guess a trade-down scenario w/ the Lions is probably a good idea. Not sure who will be available w/ the 20th and 33th(?) overall picks and more importantly whether guys taken here would be able to start. I guess it's hard for me to believe the "starting" caliber OTs will still be available at 20 (for example i think this proved to be the case in last year's draft as only the tackles taken in the top half of the 1st round went on to start); however we could probably get a decent LB starter like Matthews at 20 and then a center @ 33 who would be an immediate upgrade over Rabach. Mack or Unger will in all likelihood still be available there. The big thing is this all hinges on our acquisition of the best available RT in FA... Willis, statistically, is that guy. I don't understand why he's still on the market, in fact it worries me. Zorn knows him. He's been here and interviewed. He's young, big, strong and should have a better headstart on the scheme than any other FA. What the deuce...

It's just my overall board according to our needs, last year we had Glen Dorsey on our board, as the best player for us to get, but Vinny knew he wouldn't drop to us...its just a what if/for fun thing
Larry Michael is Satan 03-06-2009, 10:15 PM A lot of people have forgotten about how bad our offense was last year, and we've done little about it so far this offseason. This Orakpo talk is ridiculous.
1st rd
Best OT available at #13. Hopefully Oher.
3rd rd.
Best C/G available. Hopefully Wood or Levitre.

Does...that...mean....I win the thread?
Nflnick11 03-11-2009, 08:27 PM I just realized that Percy harvin is capable of playing running back, and since we need a receiver and a speed back and a returner, why not harvin??
That Guy 03-12-2009, 12:40 AM I just realized that Percy harvin is capable of playing running back, and since we need a receiver and a speed back and a returner, why not harvin??
cause he's not a guarantee by a long shot, and that's the 4th or 5th highest need we have, and he's probably not going to be taken when we're on the clock due to other players available and team needs at those spots.

He's basically a lot like Reggie Bush except he actually knows his place. Then again this is coming from the same guy that said Brian Westbrook can't be an effective runner.
