I'm really hoping for Groves at 48.

Not yet.

I'm going to be disappointed - maybe appalled - if we don't bolster the o-line w/ at least one of our next two picks.

I've heard a lot of good things about Groves from people who actually break down tape, as opposed to those internet guys who just echo what the last guy said.

I think CB at 48 is more likely

as for OL, Goat, we can quality linemen in the late 3rd/early 4th in my opinion.

If we took Groves I think we would project to OLB

if campbell is available, and we dotn pick him...ive gotta think our dlinecoach knows somethign we dont. since he coached campbell during his great year in college two years ago. but hopefully he knows somethign we dotn and they take him!

BleedBurgundy · 04-26-2008, 08:11 PM

I'm thinking Eagles go with WR at 43. Maybe Sweed or Jackson?

The Goat · 04-26-2008, 08:12 PM

Chilo Rachal gone. It's a huge drop off in o-line talent from this point forward according to the boards. Damn!!!

I've heard he's got some off-field issues. You know anything about that?

Collins form Kansas, Nicks, Nebraska, Scheuning OR. St., Pollack, they would all be good for us.

Could any of those guys be ready to start?

I'd think that if he's there, we have to take him.

Saints took Tracy Porter. That's another CB off the board
