Right, and that's the problem with your evaluation.

You're not using a first round pick to fill a "need" "at this time". You're picking a player who's going to be an asset for you for 10 years.

Note also that the investments in the secondary include a safety and essentially a 1 year deal on an average corner... and we still have our best corner who rarely plays a full season.

Its almost like you guys forget what happens when Jimmy Smith goes down, which he does frequently.

I am with you on that brother!

I'm kind of shocked that Bolles is the only lineman off the board this late. 

Yeah wait til the second round or maybe end of 1st. You'll see a run on them.

I know this boy can play!  I won't be surprised if the Bills take him though, his WR coach is now with the Bills, but I will still be heartbroken!

[Ravensfolyfe]

Message for the rest of NFL - hands off Tim Williams, Takk and Ryan Anderson until we make a choice.

Careful now, NFL

Cool. Every avenue of scouting and prying still doesn't mean the guy has to come to your facility. You can accomplish both of those things easily without that ever happening.

 

true

I get that part but what I'm saying is is the passion may get the best of him on the field, and get into it with other players. Forget a 25 point lead blown in the Super Bowl, Takk will keep the offense on the field with stupid penalties.

Doesnt mean he should act ignorantly on live television. I bet hes getting talked to right this second

[JO_75]

Oh wow....... so Bills and Cowboys have picked. Packers have traded out of the first round and the Browns are back into the first round.

[Moderator 3]

Browns now back with the 29th pick.

He just fulfilled a promise he made to the person that meant most to him.  Obviously an emotional moment for him.  Can't compare that.

[allblackraven]

Falcons pass rush will be even more fun to watch. Dan Quinn knows what he's doing.

Because he's not making it to our 2nd round pick anyway.

[Grapple Raven]

Man the Browns are racking up the picks.

[Ravensfolyfe]

[rossihunter2]

[Grapple Raven]

Bills select CB TreDavious White, whewwwwwwwwwww~

[ravefan52]

[JO_75]

White to the Bills to help replace Gilmore.
