All depends on how Zorn plans to use TEs in his offense. He obviously thinks Davis can play a significant role.

Quentin Groves - not what I had as ideal but he is very productive at the college level.

EARTHQUAKE2689 · 04-26-2008, 09:00 PM

we could go Justin King maybe if we go corner

Exactly. Do you all remember how many times we had to settle for 3 instead of being unable to either punch it in or get it to a reliable target inside the 10?

BFD will represent!

I know the rule of thumb is take the best player available but it should be take the best player available unless the best player available plays the same position as the best player on your team.

I loved the Thomas pick but this one seems sort of stupid to me.

I can see it already: "Campbell drops back to pass - Cooley, Davis, Randle El, Moss, and Thomas are all wide open! Oops - Campbell is sacked."

Or how about "Campbell throws another touchdown pass - his fourth of the game! Now the Redskins are only down by 21 points!"

Yeah he was like the Antonio Gates of college...I was a little hesitate at first with the approach of the off season and free agency but i'm loving both picks so far
