Out with the old thread, let's start with a clean slate
Just over a month til the Draft, alot of discussion with our 1st overall pick right now.
We're also getting into free agency at midnight, so plenty of rumors to discuss there.
I'm reading in today's Herald that we're trying to move our other 2nd rd pick (via SD from Chambers trade) to get the Lions' Shaun Rogers. Also possibly interested in David Carr, who got cut by Carolina yesterday.
If you guys indeed land Rogers you will be frustrated with his play. Half the time he decides to show up and play like an all-pro, the other games hed decides to put it in cruise control and look lik he doesn't even belong on the field. He is a solid pick-up though.
A 2nd for Rogers would be a very good move. We need help at DT and if we get him then we can turn our focus on a different position with the 1st rd pick. Yeah, he has tendencies to play overweight and take plays off but if motivated then there isnt anyone in that 2nd round better than Rogers.
I'm kind of liking Jake Long a lot since I saw his measurables at the combine. He's got everything you're looking for in a tackle. With him at one tackle, Carey at the other and Satele at center, we'd have a very good trio to build around the O-Line. I read that Faneca might be looking for a playoff contender but if we could get him then that would be great. We'd also be able to use most of our picks on getting younger on D.
Rumor has it the Dolphins have reduced their list to Chris Long, Vernon Gholston, Matt Ryan, and Sedrick Ellis. After the combine Chris Long had, I think he will be our pick if we stay put. Parcells will go with the safest pick of the bunch and Long looks like he could be special.
Ryan, I'm not a big fan of and I'm hoping all the talk about him is just a smokescreen to lure Atlanta into giving us their 2nd or 3rd to move up for him. Since we are definately trying to trade down I wouldn't be surprised to hear rumors about those four guys every day until draft day. I also wouldn't be surprised to see us offer at least a couple of them a contract to try and get other teams to make a desparation move.
As for Free Agency, OG Justin Smiley is an AWESOME signing! Care-Smiley-Carey is a great core for our line. I liked Smiley when he got drafted by the 49ers, so I'm pretty happy with him.
I don't think we'll bring in any other big names though, the rumors are that our main priorities are going to be Ernest Wilford, Calvin Pace, and Jason Ferguson via trade with Dallas.
Yeah, you all are getting Ferguson from us (i'm a dallas fan if you didnt alreayd know). According to my sources its for the first round pick..J/k, but its really for probably a second day draft pick, like 5th-6th rounder or somthing..I know about Fergunson, he's a great run stopper. The only thing w/ him is he got hurt last year for us. I'm surprised we're giving him up for a second day pick(s)! But then agian, he is paid kinda high, and we are pretty deep at DT, with Tank, and ratliff who we just gave a extension during mid-year..Good pick up for ya'll IMO
