2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

This is bound to be a busy weekend so I'm going to ask that we limit new threads and keep the majority of the draft discussion here in this thread.

If chatting is more your style, feel free check out the new [URL="http://www.thewarpath.net/misc.php?do=cchatbox"]Warpath Chat Room[/URL].

This thread will open for business sometime tomorrow before the draft begins.

Thanks

How about moving this to the main forum for better exposure? Sure it's draft chat, but that's definitely locker room talk here shortly.

Here's to football wisdom and prudence everybody, today is a moment of truth for our franchise.

Mike Mayock just confirmed what I've been saying for a while now. This is by far the weakest draft class in years. God I hope we trade down instead of doing something drastic.

Yeah I think i heard our board is shorter this year than last...I guess that speaks to the quality of players.

...although I tend to think if we're close to getting an impact player and after that it's very weak, trading into a spot to get a legit impact starter could be a smart move. Not Sanches, but a top OT would actually leave me satisfied.

...btw yahoo sports final draft has Crabtree falling to us, and yes we take him. I'll go outside and destroy something if we take a WR w/ our first pick.

Yep, we're not in a very good spot unless someone really falls. Middle of the round is a pretty wack place to be.

I wouldn't mind seeing Sanchez picked or sniped by another team, then us trading down 1-4 spots to get a big OT; there's not much of a reason to go QB this year it doesn't seem, with what's coming out next year. Sure it'd get the guy a year in the system and there might be some trade value for Campbell this year, but I doubt we do much better with a rookie this year, so if we can solidify this year and just put off our Super Bowl dreams (lol) for a year, I think that we'll be much better off.

Who would you guys rather have if you had to make the choice...

Matt Stafford with 41M guaranteed - or - Albert Haynesworth with 40M guaranteed.

I would rather have Lotus on my team! :)

Aw shucks, thanks! I'll happily take the $41 mil! However, I'm pretty sure that Big Al is a better pass rusher than I.

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

It was just announced Cassel signed 6yr 36Mill. That again is just a slap that Det paid 41Mill

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

A Proven Hayesworth, Lets build a Dominating D. Go D this Draft.

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

Just heard that the Jets are trying to move up to 2nd overall to pick Sanchez.....no way were matching that shit. Sanchez isn't happening.

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

Sanchez isn't happening anyway. It's all smoke.

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

hell i could see us picking crabtree with him and moss and devin as the third i can see our offense tearing it up this year the guy catches everything thrown his way reminds me of fitzgerald

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

I would like to see us move up to get the big OT from Ol'Miss, I can't remember his name right now, he's a class act.

[quote=mitch e;550126]I would like to see us move up to get the big OT from Ol'Miss, I can't remember his name right now, he's a class act.[/quote]

Oher. Yes, I like him too. It is possible that we do not have to move up because he drops to us anyway. If teams like Buffalo, Green Bay, and Denver go defense he might just be left over for us.

that will never happen

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

i just believe we should draft the best player on the board not bye postion and i dont think anybody would say crabtree wont make a immediate impact

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

WEll at least this is all going to be over in a few hours and we can enjoy the summer lol

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

hell ya

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

i believe there going to be a run on tackles again and he might slip down and with the linebackers and defensive linemen he could slip its possible

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion

Just about time to see if we were right about this. Here's hoping!

Yeah, it's time! Let's build our future!

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

Oh boy, here we go.

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

Please Please Please Dont Take Sanchez....

Big ups to the Lions for not screwing around and just getting their pick in.

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

I'm terrified. If I hear anything about a trade, I might have a nervous breakdown.

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

Is anyone doing the NFL draft streak on ESPN?

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

so far the only trade rumor is jets/jags at 8

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

NFLN is reporting that the Rams are about to trade down.

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

Well thank God we didn't move all the way up to #2.

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

[quote=WestCoastSkinsFan;550148]Well thank God we didn't move all the way up to #2.[/quote]

Yea but what about #3?

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

[quote=WaldSkins;550149]Yea but what about #3?[/quote]
that will be the question until sanchez is gone...

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

And with every pick, the price (theoretically) gets smaller to make that move. Going from #13 to #2 would have been painful.

Re: 2009 NFL Draft Chat/Discussion
 

On NFLN they have those "Hard Knocks: Training Camp with the Dallas Cowboys" commercials.

I root against the Cowboys even on those commercials. I keep irrationally hoping that people will fall down, etc.

Pioli wants to trade down. Theres no way he wants to pay the type of money that the number 3 player receives.
