Tamba Hali? Awful pick. Leaves the Pats with their choice of good players.

My updated board of possibilities:

Richard Marshall
Manny Lawson
Trade Down
Winston Justice
Nick Mangold - Upset special!
Chad Jackson
DeAngelo Williams
Santonio Holmes
Leonard Pope - Whoo, another TE!
Jonathan Joseph
Joseph Addai
Thomas Howard

Marshall and Lawson are 1a and 1b, in my mind. I like the trade down option though, to pick up a few more choices, and still get one of Lawson, Marshall, Justice or Jackson.

This is the closest we will get to a medical report on Light's knee.

We'll know in 9 minutes or less... woo hoo!

Justice and Jimmy Williams are probably the top pure talents on the board but both have character issues.

I think it will be Lawson which means it will be someone else.

Then please think it won't be Lawson.

Man..Hali's story is kind of sad. Best of luck to him to bring his mother to him in the USA after not seeing her for 12 years. Gotta be tough to go through all hes been

Gosselin had Hali to KC.

OK, we're on the clock with at least some great choices
1) Justice
2) Lawson
3) Jackson
4) Mangold
5) Joseph
6) Marshall
7) Holmes
8) trade down

I would pick Justice or try to trade down a few picks. This looks like an equal board unless bb has one of the players much higher than the rest.

Bottom line, I would be about just as happy with any of the seven; that means trade down. Obviously, I'm fine with any of the seven.

I agree.

It's Justice, Lawson or trade down. All are fine choices. The danger is that KC picks Justice, and that the patriots AND others see a flaw in Lawson that we don't see.

JEST fans booing Herman during his interview with Berman. Irvin laughing in the background. Classic.

 

[DB15]

the suspence is killing me

 

[mikegibbons]

I'll say Jackson.


Urban told Belichick good things and Belichick got intrigued after his own research...is my reasoning.

 

[DrewWho?]

trade down!

 

[Ahriman]

I think it's Jackson too.

 

[CrazyDave]

While i want a LB, we do need a receiver real bad.

 

[drew4008]

Clock off.

ESPN radio--"They are booing Herman Edwards more loudly than when he ran the ball on 3rd and 11"

 

[TB12]

[Seymour93]

[dhamz]

Moroney???????

 

[skri65]
