Number one pic here we come

Kyle Orton or Cedric Benson

And would you "U" fans PLEASE stop mentioning Gore! First and foremost he has 2 surgically repaired knees and secondly he's not even a top 5 back coming out this year. The average career in the NFL for a feature RB is only like 7-8 seasons, how long do you think its gonna be for a guy who has already blown out both knees?

We could get both so I say both!

I would trade down accumulate another 2nd rounder, and draft Aaron Rodgers.

If you guys want to give Feeley another year or get another QB through free agency, than I would think about taking one of the OT's from Miami or FSU. They're both pretty good and should be Top 10ish picks.

QB Matt Leinart

Kyle Orton for me

traaaaaade dooooooown.


We cant afford the #1 pick, go after a FA Olineman, and sign a FA RB. Its called the salary cap ladies. We have too many holes to fill, we need to trade the #1 pick down for a latter 1st round pick and additional picks. Saves us some cash and allows us to acquire more players.

Orton would be my QB of choice if we went the QB way.

Have or don't have we need more picks anyway.Our needs can be filled later in the draft anyway!

Whoever mentioned Gore.....he's too injury prone to ever be considered this high.

I mentioned Gore but it was after I said we should trade down, and I mentioned him in the 2nd round. If we go TB I really hope its Benson, but I also hope that its after we trade down.
I like Feeley, and if the OL gets better he has a shot. But if the OL gets better and his decisions don't, then we may need to look at QB and Orton would be my choice.
As far as OL goes as an FSU fan I obviously love Barron. If we could get the afore mentioned Guard from Virginia in the later portions of round one, that would be great. We would get OL help and trade down more than once accumulating several picks. If we went from a top five pick to say the 25th pick we could add a lot of picks.
How do you figure Rickys rights are worth no more than a 5th round pick? I can understand the "not worth a first" argument, but a Pro Bowl RB who hasnt taken a beating for a year should at least be worth a 3rd. If Oakland wants him then you hold them over a barrel or let him sit!! Boomer I do have a question for you is there a possibility of getting compensatory draft picks due to Ricky?
