Our 1st round pick should be Bruce Campbell out of Maryland. He is a stud who can anchor our line for eight to ten years

Wait a minute. You guys mean to tell me that we'll win more games by drafting an O-lineman in the first round instead of a QB? We can address our O-line in free-agency. Lineman are a dime a dozen, franchise QB's aren't. How many more franchise QB's do we have to pass before someone realizes that we can't win a Superbowl without a Superbowl QB. Here's list of available O-lineman in free-agency.

first of all....i love the information you had in the bottom of your post but your openning statement wreaks of media hype and little football knowledge

linemen are not a dime a dozen....it is far more important to build a solid offensive line than it is to find a QB....remember that linemen operate 2 phases of the game where the QB only operates 1....linemen are the sole reason for good running games and often the reason that QBs like tom brady get as much attention and credit as they do.....offensive linemen are far more important to the overall game than any QB ever could be.....however, when you look at the game winning drives in history, sometimes its better to have a great QB that can manuever around the pocket and avoid the pressure......there is always an exception to the rule, but the rule almost always trumps the exception

Jahri Evans, New Orleans Saints (26)
Jahri Evans is continuing to grade out as the team’s best run-blocking linemen week after week. The Saints have done a nice job of efficiently running the ball through the middle and on the right side of the line. His continual high level of play and positive, team-first attitude should translate to a high-end offensive guard contract at year’s end. Expect the Saints, who have nothing but positive things to say towards Evans, to richly reward him for his hard work and production.

great pickup in the 4th round a few years back.....considered by many scouts around the league to be the best up and coming guard in the entire NFL.....some already consider him the best.....he is arguably our best offensive lineman and is mentoring the young carl nicks on the other side to be equally as aggressive and talented

you guys have no shot at getting him.....id be surprised if he wasnt our first offseason re-signing

^^ it's a good thing that Alex Smith, Brady Quinn, Jamarcus Russell, Matt Leinart and all the bevy of first round quarterbacks worked out huh?

Trade the pick, get multiple 2nd + 3rd rounders for it and use it to stock up the O-Line. It's simple math, if you put Tom Brady behind that line, you would win maybe one more game. If you keep Jason Campbell behind a greatly improved offensive line, you win 3-4 more games. What's more 3-4 or 1?

brady quinn has 6 NFL starts....dont group him with other busts when he hasnt been given a fair chance

11 starts in 4 years....also playing behind a future hall of famer and former super bowl MVP....not to mention the starting QB for the NFC in the pro bowl

leinart isnt a bust either..maybe you think vince young is a bust too

in order to be a bust you have to give them the opportunity to play up to or below their potential......if they get outplayed it doesnt make them a bust, it just means the other guy is better......now if leinart or quinn never make a name for themselves and bounce around the league before retiring with only 6 and 11 games started respectfully......then label them busts

i guess i just consider it a bust because of the high draft spot, i mean if you spend that much money and that high of a draft pick on somebody they need to have an impact within the first three years of them being there, otherwise i think the talent evaluator kinda s the bed by wasting a high draft pick on a position that was obviously not that important, imo

lol i normally agree......i would hate to have a first round draft pick ride the pine for 4 years before makes an impact......however, you look at guys like aaron rodgers who sat behind a future hall of famer for 3 seasons before getting his shot and look how he turned out

guys like steve young who come into the league as a nobody from the USFL and sits behind a guy you probably have heard of named joe montana.....then goes on to be a hall of famer in his own right

its proven that if you give a player time to learn the system and the players under a proven starter, they are more likely to succeed when you hand the reigns over to them

like i said tho....id hate to waste a pick in the first round and not see that player play for the next 3 or 4 seasons

OK so after watching the Falcons game I can say that from the looks of how bad our OL is and the looks of their OL, we need to get OL in both the Draft and Free agency. Maybe a Russell Okung in the Draft and a logan mankins in FA.

Theres no way we're getting Jahri Evans from the N.O. Saints, they'll throw all the money they got for him or Franchise him. I'd Say the same almost for Marcus McNeil, cause the Chargers have already locked up Rivers, and they don't seem to care about losing Merriman, since he hasn't played that well and they drafted larry english as his back up.

The pick will most likely be a QB, and the O-line will be addressed in the 2nd round and free agency. That will be the big splash of the off season we see every year.

what pick do you all think we will have next year? I figure about 7th. And that is not early enough for Okung, who is surely going to go top 5.
