Nothing new

Re: Trading into the lower half of the1st round.

I would much rather get Stanzi w/ a hypothetical 3rd/4th rounder then Dalton or Ponder at the bottom of the first.

:laughing- Very good 30gut. :) Just out of curiosity though, what were your thoughts on Bradford after getting drafted by the Rams? I respect your posts and am curious about your thoughts on his future.

Highly unlikely, but I mean what else is CJ going to say?

Concerns about Phil Taylor.. has bones growing together in his feet, they can't correct it, it's a pain tolerance issue

True

[quote=warriorzpath;793936]My bold prediction with this qb class and their rankings in the NFL.
1. Dalton

5. Newton

Their draft order might be the complete 180 degree opposite. That's how bold this prediction is.[/quote]

Bold or not I'm with you. Everyone is down playing Dalton like he's never going to be a starter. They say he can't run, yet all video shows him running well on designed QB sneaks. They say he has no pocket awareness, yet he knew when to escape the pass rush and make something out of nothing. They say he can't throw on the run, yet he did throw a lot from roll outs. Plus he's smart.

I was there, and I don't mean to use Peyton Manning as an example, but I’m going to use him as an example, I was there on his pro day and I guarantee you, Peyton Manning didn't throw the ball any better than this kid. Maybe this kid threw the ball better.”[/COLOR]

Same with Mark Ingram (RB). I think the latest report was his injury is not healing well and actually might be a liability for the future. Now they are saying he might be projected not to get drafted until late rounds.

Re: 2011 NFL Draft
 

The Sammy Baugh factor alone should have all Skins fans welcoming Dalton with open arms! lol

I still say Pat Devlin is gonna be the biggest QB surprise to come out of this Draft.

I thought he would be groomed by a well trained WCO disciple in Pat Shurmur.

Bradford showed more arm strength then I thought he had and of course will always be very accurate.

I kinda hope he has a rough year simply because I hate McDaniels, but without question McDaniels knows how to coach the passing game.

I think Bradford might start off slow this year, but will finish strong and continue to improve.

It's funny you mention Mark Ingram, but this was a following tweet from a insider. Not sure if Smoot has commented about him (ingram) yet.

[quote] Mark Ingram knee is costing him, not graded n first n a lot of boards n no longer even considered number 1 back n e more 10:34 AM Apr 14th via web [/quote]


So many smoke screens out there it's impossible to see the truth about a lot of things.

Re: 2011 NFL Draft
 

I think Ingram will be a late first rounder and still be the top running back in this draft. Leshoure, Ryan Williams and possibly Kendall Hunter could all be 2nd rounders
