I agree we shouldn't use that high of a pick on a project, but I DO think that a lot of WRs can make the transition to CB fairly easily. Typically that's what you hear CBs USED to be. The concept is fairly the same and being a WR, you probably understand a lot of the CB terminology.

That being said, I'd never spend that pick on him, but would consider it on another decent WR later in the draft (a draft we have more picks in).

Well what I am actually suggesting is to find out if he can make a successful switch that is all, if you bring this kid in for a workout and he covers Moss I would say it's a go, the GM has to have an eye on whether it's possible.

I saw tonight on the NFL network an interview with Ginn, they asked him if he had any thought where he was going to be drafted, he said he heard Minnesota, and he also said he heard the Redskins like him a lot, for what it's worth. By the way he's apparently a Christian which is a big up as far as Gibbs is concerned.

They say CB's are nothing more than WR's who can't catch...

Re: I like Ginn!

If Ginn is still available in the 5th or 6th round, I would have no problem drafting him and giving him any sort of project they hand to him.

But I wouldn't do anything of the sort with the #6 pick.

Re: I like Ginn!

I doubt he'll last that long, he's rated as the 12th best prospect by Scouts Inc.

No. No we don't. We have Moss. We have Cooley. We only have one football. We're good.

And that's all we needed when Al Saunders wasn't around. Are you saying Lloyd will be brought back?

Lloyd will be brought back, although he doesn't do much very well at all. Randle El can catch 30 passes a year as the No. 2.

You want the ball in Cooley's hands and you want it in Moss' hands. As long as you have NFL competent players around them (i.e. not Taylor Jacobs and Jimmy Farris), we will be fine.

Re: I like Ginn!

Colston kicks ASS!! Heard he has a bad attitude but as long as he can walk the walk I guess.....ARE is a decent No. 2 but he adds so much more. Kick/punt returns, Option plays, WR endarounds, you name it. I think GTRIPP is right on the money. We have friggin MOSS. SANTANA MOSS. Come on. We have Cooley, who I believe is a Pro-Bowl caliber TE. Get the ball in their hands for christ's sakes. Lloyd can leave for all I care. We also have Thrash on the bench who I know some people dont like but, I think he's great. He really embodies what this team is. He comes out and will make the crucial block or the miracle 3rd down catch. Hard worker and team player. We also have Espy on the bench who I also believe has some skill. Dont we have some dude named Ortega or something too?

Point is, we really dont need too much more depth at WR I think. yes, bringing him in to switch to CB is a thought but, not when you have basically one friggin pick! (thanks again FO!) We could try to use him as a trade down chip but, I think we leave Ginn Jr. be. Besides, if we DID pick him, you know he'd want to be a WR opposite Moss. Jesus, that would be sick. Two yards after catch BEASTS!

HTTR!

Now see this is ****ing funny. Notice how he uses " I have an idea," to set up the pacing. Beautiful.

Re: I like Ginn!

i dont like ginn at all with that pick. how about this laron landry....absolute stud and i think he would sure up the safety spot we need....we can address the dline in free agency...which would be better anyways, i always like a veteran dline. i think our dline is only 1 player away from being damn good and that is at tackle opposite of griff. that being said i would be ok with jamal anderson.

laron landry isnice but we wont pass up all 3 top d lineman in this draft what we should do is sign london flecther-baker move lemar to weak sdie to compete with rocky, draft either adams,branch,anderson, or trade down and get obkoye (didnt spell that right) and sign nate clements and maybe rod hood from the eagles and we should be good
