Damn I think about 90% of us are in ABS mode. Anybody think Danny/Vinny are catching this?

The Passing Game has elevated to another level therfore in order to defend against it you need a solid defensive line and in order to have it you need a solid offensive line. It's all about the trenches we took care of the defense time to address the offense.

Anyone but Sanchez is a solid pick.

We've spent all of this time on the draft. Now Synder is going to make all of this time, plus the time of the coaches, staff, and scouts worthless.

I have decided that I will not even turn on the TV tomorrow. I will find out what happens when I get home tomorrow afternoon. If I watch I may get an ulcer.

You are correct! While all of the folks who didn't vote for Orakpo can still gripe, the many who voted for him should tone down their criticisms of the FO for now. The FO got them their boy.

Well it wasn't a smoke screen it was the Jets giving up much more than we were willing to part with. I guess the Jason Taylor 2nd rd pick may have saved us. VC said they tried to move up. We got saved by the Jets and also thank you AL Davis for your pick, which allowed the 49ers to pick a offensive player. This allowed Orakpo to fall to us.

The FO is on the record as saying that they inquired about moving up for Sanchez. Just about every other team did this as well as part of due diligence so it wasn't a big deal. The FO also said that they really had their hearts set on Orakpo all along.

So, yes, the Sanchez stuff was a smokescreen.
