Supplemental Draft to begin on Thursday July 12, do you think we will make a move?

skinsfan_nn · 07-11-2007, 05:12 PM

We have never used a pick in 30 years, I think it would be unlikely....?

Thoughts on available talent.

Maryland's Gaither Available

i think you lose a pick in the regular draft if you choose. if thats the case, no pick

BigSKINBauer · 07-11-2007, 05:16 PM

Last week i said I would like gaither as depth. He has been listed at 350 but that isn't what he really is. I would actually be quite happy to get him in the 5th round or so. However, he seems to be drawing more interest from other teams like jax

yeah, but its sorta like actually picking a player with next years pick but just one year early. If we pick him in the 5th round in the supp draft then we give away our fifth next year.

Anyone know much about the CB from Georgia Oliver? i heard he held Calvin Johnson to like 2 catches, and has all the tools needed to be real at the pro level bu I never saw him play. worth a 3rd/4th rounder?

ArtMonkDrillz · 07-11-2007, 05:48 PM

I loved Gaither during his freshman year at UMD and I'm sad to see him go, but I don't think I would spend anything more than a 6th rounder (if that) on him. Plus, there's always the slim chance that no one takes him and we can get him as an undrafted FA, which I think is better for the salary cap.

Are there any DTs or DEs worth looking at?

That would be a nice area to pickup for sure (DE or DT), if there's a decent catch to be had.

Gaither was suppose to be a 1'st round pick next year and some folks are talking about taking him with a 3'rd or 2'nd round pick in the supplemental draft. He's going to be a project but at 6'9" and 350 lbs he can just engulf people.

i would take gaithers with a third round pick we need some young olinemen. Our tackles are going old.

But if we use a 6th/7th round pick, then we give up all chances of landing a gem like Jordan Palmer...

haha, but that is why i feel that we should be getting players today. I mean, what is the big deal if we give up a 5th today for someone who is a first day talent? These players have unique situations, its not that they are bad players. I am up fro picking up gaithers today and i'll give a 5th for that. I think he'll go higher but i won't be upset with giving a 4th either. A third would be pushing it too far. Paul, nice report by PFT. I was hoping to pick him up there. We'll see but adding depth to the line was a big knock on our draft. If we can pick someone up that is decent for depth, i don't see why not.

I feel that the 350 number was just overblown. I don't think he ever was that big. However, i've seen this guy around campus, he is a monster.

BSB, you are at Maryland aren't you?

Any truth to those 'character issues' with Gaither?

BTW Gaither at round three is a steal.

i wish Dallas didn't draft two Tackles this year, I would definitely want him at round three.

Mind you every NFL team knows that there are hella OT's coming out next year. There will be quality at OT well into the third/fourth round.

Yeah, i go to Maryland. But i've never heard anything about his character at all. I also don't know anyone that knows him so i can't ask around. The basketball team gets around here. I don't see the football team anywhere. I know a couple girls that get around with the basketball team too.

BigSKINBauer · 07-12-2007, 12:59 PM

what time is the draft by the way? How does it exactly work. Do they call off, who wants so and so in this round and if someone picks him then he goes off the board? What if two teams want someone in the 4th round, what happens? Can you pick someone up in a round if you don't have the draft spot next year. Like if you traded your 5th but you want somone there, do you have to wait for the 6th?
