I was thinking something similar. If Reggie drafts Te'o with anything higher than our third rounder, I am going to quit watching football. |
Guarantee ya wont! |
I already stopped watching Laker games after they hired D'Antoni. |
Bet you cant go without two of your top sports. If you can, well then you aint a real man!  |

What's he suppose to say? "We aren't taking him!" When it comes to the draft every front office is going to be vague about what they say and positive about picks. Doesn't mean we take him at 3 or at all. |

I didn't even like the guy before this happened. Firstly, I dont think you draft a MLB/ILB high in the draft. Secondly, I didnt even think he was that good enough to warrant a top 10 selection. Thirdly his eyes are so far apart that I would worry for teammates to maintain eye contact with him in fear they might adopt a lazy eye. _________________ First jersey purchased: Jamarcus Russell.

True, but some front offices are stupid enough to vocalize their preferred prospect. _________________ The Silver and Black is back. |

Exactly. It says Reggie "considers him first round talent". That doesn't mean anything, it means he's think the same thing that everyone else is thinking. He's first round talent. If he said "top 5 talent".... maybe we could start drawing speculation on something. _________________ Bah-Weep-Granah-Weep-Nini-Bong

Is that why he can't see when they run right at him? |

i know what reggie meant and it doesnt mean we will pick him. but it still kinda weird that he considers him a first round talent. maybe its just head games tryna get someone to trade up for teo lolololol
i honestly dont want anything to do with teo untill mid 2nd round _________________

No worries man, you're a passionate fan and our team has been less than fantastic in the new regime. It's easy to not be optimistic. |

The full transcript.
I especially like the part where questions about McClain begin. It almost seems as if McKenzie implies he could not cut McClain last year due to the cap and being 30 mil over, but it seems by what he says that he may have wanted to. |
thanks for the link
i like what he has to say about tp
now all the quotes from the first page link make sense. you have to see the total quote to understand exactly what reg is sayin. _________________

| So Reggie said Dennis is closing in on a offensive cordinator. And so far we have been connected to mike Martz , Greg Olson ,Marc trestman and norv turner. Trestman and turner are hired. If we hired Olson or Martz it would be a epic fail and would convince me that Dennis is incompotent. |

McKenzie didn't even really confirm Olson, and Martz was a while ago. I wouldn't get those panties in a bunch until a hire is made. McKenzie mentioned Trestman and Norv, never mentioned Martz for what it's worth. |
