Your thoughts of the possibility of Kerrigan "surpassing" Orakpo

Dez Bryant doesnt deserve for his name to be in the same sentence as A. Johnson and Megatron. Guy has done zero

Well you would have a point if we were talking about who is the best wide receiver this seasons or in the past couple of seasons, etc., etc. However, my point was to give examples of WRs that have the ability to go up and grab a pass at a point that it is difficult for a small CB to defend.

Kerrigan = big motor, Rak = big ability. Both are beasts, but my gut is Kerrigan outplays his physical talent by being smart / being relentless. Some of his plays are on second efforts and recognizing throwing situations, etc. Both in ProBowl for years to come.


More important than this argument is -- the success draft/FA. I'm VERY pleased at all the hits on our new players, as well as getting more out of the existing players. A far cry from seeing Portis sip cocktails with Snyder. The big misses on McNabb and struggles with Haynesworth are long forgotten.

If Shanny keeps this up, we're definitely competing for the SB in 2 years. Currently we're 3-1, but can't see us competing with teams like Green Bay yet - but with a better offense anything is possible.

Draft 2012 Priorities:
1) QB - MLB
2) Oline - secondary

yeah, I agree with that, but not the order. I think QB and CB are more important than MLB and OLine. MLB is a need, but not a big one, with Rocky showing that he's worth keeping and the ageless london fletcher still there. I think we can milk out one more year with London. The only MLB I'd take is Burfict. Where as next year you have Barkley, Cousins, Foles, Robert Griffin, and Landry Jones coming out as your QB's. CB is a need, and there are some great CB's in this class as well. Cliff Harris of oregon, Gilmore South Carolina, Hosely of VT, Claiborne for LSU, Dennard for Nebraska, Jenkins who was on Florida but is now with North Alabama, and Dre Kirkpatrick.

Did you purposely leave Luck off of that list since it does not look like there is any chance we get him?

yep. Face it the lowest he goes is #2 if a team like St. Louis picks first. He can probably tear his ACL or throw picks for the rest of the year and still be a first rounder. He's just that much of a lock. We'd have to lose out all our games to get him...and that still may not be enough. So yes I left him off for an obvious reason.

Since we are talking about that side of the ball.....

did any of you hear the Sports Junkies talking about statistics either yesterday or the day before? The Redskins right now have a #3 ranked defense. Obviously it will change some when we start with our hardest part of our schedule, but they said teams that have a top 8 defense get to the pale-offs 90% of the time. Teams with a top 5 defense get to the pale-offs 100% of the time.

They also pointed out that the Skins have 5 difficult games to play yet and 4 games which should be somewhat easy or atleast they should win. I'm not saying they are SB bound for those who will choose to twist my words, I'm simply saying they have a good chance to make the play-offs and hopefully next year.... year 3 for the coaching staff, they can make the big run at the SB. If the team does better then expected this year then awesome.

pale-offs?

Is that like a beer competition?

Purposefull mispelling. I thought it was on this board maybe elsewhere, there was a thread "The pale offs are now". or something to that effect. Supposed to be funny.

Ah.

It's an ES thing.
