For better or for worse

Definitely. That's why I keep advocating taking Williams in the first. I think the guy is a natural playmaker and, unlike popular opinion, I think he will make an immediate impact.

r we better than last year in my opinion..... yes. but it does seem that others in the division had better offseasons and addressed their needs, namely dallas. I know that bledso is a major upgrade. I mean TESTICLES couldn't throw anything last yr. they got picks early in the draft, and will improve more. We did well but even the giants got better wr w/ plexco and took pierce, we can't compare w/ the eagles so lets not they got draft picks off the wazoo.
I think this adds to the fact that we are in the best division in the league we are rivalled by the broncos, raiders, chiefs, and chargers division but wait we play them too this year so we best be at the top of our game.

I think other teams had adequate offseasons. I do however, think that Bledsoe is going to flop for Dallas. He loves to throw picks and he can't take a hit. I'm excited to play him.

Daseal...you mean if Springs stays healthy for the whole season.....the league is getting bigger not smaller, and weather pac man is a impact db, he can't be put in situation were he's match against a big WR....I agree with MC...we will be better of getting Williams

TheMalcolmConnection · 04-05-2005, 03:33 PM

Don't get me wrong though, if Williams isn't available, I would be completely happy with Rolle (especially) or Pac-Man. I think that Williams is one of the few guaranteed playmakers in the draft.

corners come and go in the NFL and who knows maybe we'll sign law or something... (not likely) but we do need an impact wideout who can take control in the redzone.

williams will be gone, tampa or minnesota is going to get him, and the rest of the upper wr class is gonna be a stretch at 9. im hoping for merriman or rogers in the first... and bartell (cb howard) or canty (de virginia) or possibly henry (wr west virginia) in the third rd.

IMO it is the other way around. WR are a dime a dozen. Good, young CB's are not alwasy available in such great numbers.
Look how many great (probowl) WR's were available to the highest bidder and switched teams in just last two offseasons:

1) Terrel Owens, SF
2) Randy Moss, MIN
3) Mushin Muhamad. CAR
5) Plaxico Burress, Pitt
6) Jerry Porter, OAK
7) Keenan McCardel, TB
8) Lav. Coles, Wash
9) Santana Moss, Jets
10) Jerry Rice, Oak
11) David Boston, San Diego
12) Justin McCareins, TEN
13) Joey Galloway, TB
14) Curtis Conway, CHI
15) Kevin Dyson

This is just to name a few, there are more. This list is a virtual who's who of NFL WR's. The top 8 on this list are perenial probowlers players. Moss and T.O. are probably the best WR's in the NFL.
Some of these WR's switched teams for little or no compensation (T.O. for example).

I still think MN wants DJ if he's there.
