2011 NFC draft grades: Bears flunk test - NFL - Yahoo! Sports (http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=jc-cole_2011_nfc_draft_grades_050111)

I think Gomes is a really physical safety like Landry. I wouldnt be suprised if he doesn't step in and take over when O'we goes down, and he will lol.

Thanks for posting, Mrs. Shanahan! Enjoy the rest of your vacation and we'll see you back in D.C. soon.

Oooooooooooh do I detect a bit of sarcasm. I'll give you some more ammo, read my post in the John Beck thread. See Ya!:laughing-

I read somewhere (will try to find it) -- the worst Kerrigan will be is a solid outside linebacker with 8-10 sacks year after year.

Hell I'll take that!!!

I give our overall draft a B.

Trading down for extra picks - A+

Kerrigan - I'm warming to the pick because of the strength of our front 4 pass rush in nickel/dime situations. I would've went with Cam Jordan though. B

Jenkins instead of Paea - D

Hankerson in the 3rd - A

Helu in the 4th instead of Ballard - C-

Gomes instead of an interior OL that fits our scheme like Vandervelde, or a versatile G/T like Demarcus Love. - D

Royster - C
Robinson - B
Thompson - B
Hurt - B
White - C
Neild - B+
Niles Paul - B


Wow! Looks like some of my HS grades from 41 years ago! Except I had more Cs!

I only knew about Kerrigan before the Draft, and I loved the trade backs for picks. I'm just not sure about the 1 trade back up; and the over abundance of WR picks.

I give it a B as well, but TC and PS will prove whether some of these later picks are training camp fodder, or real players who make the team.

That really wouldn't work unless they then moved Landry to FS which isn't a good spot for Landry. Gomes looks to be more of a SS than FS.

From what I heard and read.. He's scouted to be either a nickel back or FS. Depending on his development.

Starting to get kind of excited about Maurice Hurt. Anyone else?

I really like him. I hope he doesn't have to play this year because our interior line is so awesome lol, but I'd love to see him force his way into the starting lineup. He could be a great pick.
