Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
Whaaaaaaaaa?!?????????????????

Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
They have us taking Carlos Rodgers at 9
|
Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
they don't have Mike WIlliams going in the Top 10
|
Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
I wonder why they wouldn't think we would take HIM at 9. Most people think that we would take him if he was available.

Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
they have Williams going to Dallas at 20

Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
Kiper has Washington taking WR Roddy White (UAB) at 25
Mortenson says it will be QB Jason Campbell (Auburn). Says it was kept underwraps until Len blew it up with his story. Gee, Pasta trying to screw over Washington? Like that would never happen |
Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
alot of folks are convinced the skins are gonna take campbell.
|
Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
If we get Rogers and White I consider that a successful draft!!! I really don;t see Joe Gibbs of all people drafting a QB in the first round.
|
Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
If the Campbell story is true (that they let it slip rather than leaked the info) and on Saturday they don't get their guy, then it's time to make some BIG changes in the management of the team. It just seems the front office has made one bad move after another as of late. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this is an elaborate ruse (Gibbs flew down to Auburn just to fake everybody out) but it's starting to look grim (they have initiated an in-house investigation to see how the info got out).

Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
I am still convinced that Gibbs was going to meet with Carlos Rogers

there is absolutely no way Williams falls that far. |
Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
I'm so pissed after watching that special.
I think there is no way we draft Campbell. I am sick of Pastabelly and him looking like a genius. They were bragging him up on that show as if he really broke that story wide open and blew up our plans. Eff that. I think it will be Rogers, and then a WR. Those guys were really hating on Mike Williams, and pretty much said he will never be a #1. They called him a young Keyshawn Johnson. If he falls to 9 i say we trade down and let someone else take him. I would much rather see us take Williamson, or even Matt Jones. Those top two WR just make me nervous. But I'm no Mel Kiper so... |
Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
Few things really bothered me about the draft special.
1. They really backed up their talk about the skins going after Campbell. If they draft Campbell, I'll be pissed about it all summer long. 2. I like Kiper's pick for us at 25. Only problem is, it seems like Kiper was the only guy who didn't buy into the whole Campbell thing. Anyone else on that panel would have had our Mock as Rogers/Campbell. If we do end up with Rogers/White, I'm a happy little redskins fan. 3. Wow, were they hard on Mike Williams. I think the truth lies somewhere in the middle. His similarities to Keyshawn do scare me though. 4. I simply can't imagine Pac Man falling that far either. 5. If the real smokescreen is the skins calling around the league to inquire about trading up, and the truth is they want Campbell, then I can honestly say I'd rather them trade up than take Campbell. I'm just not at all convinced by him. |
Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
I don't care what the clowns said last night, I still would take Williams over anyone in this draft. He is going to dominate. Imagine that big body going up for fades in the endzone. the redskins have had so much trouble in the redzone. i see Williams as a TD maker.

Wouldn't that require the Redskins offense to get close to the endzone? I don't think Williams brings enough speed and quickness to the table. We've had enough tall, slow receivers lately...Gardner, Westbrook.... Would rather have a Gary Clark, Ricky Sanders type of reciever....Mark Clayton for example. |
Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
Think Art Monk, only bigger. He'll be gone way before 20.

Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
Like Mel Kiper said yesterday, Williams is faster than freakin Jerry Rice coming out of college. Sure Rice was quicker and could make better cuts but top flight speed does not a HOF wr make. After the past few years of guys who a lot of the times seemed to have trouble being able to catch anything directly to them, I'd gladly take a wr with a little less of a burst but extremely reliable hands and who is always making the big play in the red zone. Plus we already have 3 speed wrs, we need a reliable short to medium range receiver who still probably hasn't even come close to his full potential. While I'd be happy if we traded down for more picks or selected Carlos Rodgers if Williams is gone, if he is there we NEED to pick him. Plus with him on the team, Ramsey could have 3 possible safety valves on a pass play with him, Cooley, and Portis as options if a designed play isn't open down field.
Bottom line is that in the end some players slip because of doubts and others are taken too early because of false hopes, there r rarely any players selected who are 100% what was expected. I am personally just hoping and praying the FO doesn't kill our current draft as well as next years 1st rounder for a guy who's a faster version of drop it like it's hot Gardner. Plus how in the hell could we even work out a contract to afford a #2 selection player? |
Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
edwards drops passes, i REALLY rather have mike if thats the way we're going...
|
Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
edwards is rod gardner in my opinion. same build, same problem. but gardner is cheap and alreayd signed...no sense just replacing him for a more expensive option

Re: ESPN Draft Special On Now
Williams is Keyshawn 2.0
I know that will piss a lot of people off, but its pretty much the truth. He will catch 75 balls a year and never have more that 10 TD's per year. |

Especially seeing as that cooley would be pulling in about 30-40 catches and 6 tds a year, the wr opposite williams would more than likely pull in around 6-8 tds if not a couple more, and then a few spread out to every else would make for a 25+ TD season for Ramsey and I know I'd personally be hella kewl with that. Ramsey would benefit extremely well from a wr he knows can make the toughest catches look as easy as he does the simple ones. plus early in his career if u take away his attitude, Keyshawn was a pretty good wr. Like I've said before, I just want the team to finally have a big young, talented wr who can be counted on to make the tough catches as well as the easy ones. |
