This thread is for all discussion about the draft. In here you talk about players you want, ideas you have, trades we should make, players we should get rid of, ect. We started discussing it in the other thread, but that was supposed to be just a sign-up thread. Let's continue the discussion here.

Ok, to start off I have a few things I want to put out there. I think if Bunkley and/or Ngata are there at 10 we should consider it really hard to move up and get the Cards pick. Also if Rocky Mcntosh is there in rd. 3 I think we must take him, I'm a huge fan of him. Another guy that I really lke is Greg Lee of Pitt, his sophmore year he had a big year and last year under Wanny's run happy O, didn't have as good a year but I think he could be a huge steal in rd 5 possibly. Those are 3 moves I believe we should try hard to do.

Sorry about posting in the other thread. If nobody minds I'll just copy/paste most of my other post here since that's pretty much all I have to say now:

Here's my list of draft priorities (just my opinion, still up for discussion):
1: DT
2: G
3: SLB
4: FS
5: MLB
6: C
7: WR
8: OT
9: CB
10:FB

Some Ideas: Like many of us in this forum, I love both Haloti Ngata and Brodrick Bunkley in the first round, but with St. Louis, Cleveland, and Baltimore all interested in a DT it is unlikely at best that one of them will fall to #14. I also think that after Hawk is off the board, the next 4 or 5 SLBs in this draft are all comparable in talent, meaning picking Greenway and Sims at #14 is not the most efficient use of that pick. As a result, I would be interested in two scenarios:
We trade our first (#14) and third (#76) [1300 points] for Arizona's first (#10) [1300 points].

We trade down to the late first round and try to pick up an extra 2nd rounder. This way we could still get a good SLB, get a G (Joseph/Spencer), and still pick up a good DT like Claude Wroten or John McCargo.

What does everyone else think?

The Detroit Lions would be interested in trading down their ninth pick, dependent on whether certain players are off the board or not. We realize that the Eagles would like to move up if Ngata is there, or perhaps if Bunkley is available, depending on your preference.

Please PM "Harrington is da man" or stop by our war room if you have interest. I expect to do the deal we would want your third and fifth rounders in return, as well as #14 of course. Depending on which value chart you look at, that comes out to about dead even points wise.

Detroit #9-1350

Philly #14-1100, #76-215, #146-35 = 1350

I dont think there is an way that they Lions would take our trash like Simineau or Wynn. The Lions are not retarded, and we have to give something to get something to get soemthing.

[Iggles]

I like the trade. Moving up to 9 is necessary to address our needs. Let's wait and see, though.

While I think that trade can be huge for us in getting Bunkley or Ngata, but we need to make sure that we hold off until the time is right. We can't make the trade immediately, and let Cleveland or somebody leapfrog us and get our guy.

Bills Asst. GM here
Buffalo gets #14, #45 and #116 = 1612 pts.
Philly gets #8 and #73 =1625 pts.

[ok go26]

So basically so far we're looking at either 1st for 1st, 3rd, 5th or 1st, 2nd, 4th for 1st, 3rd...

As of right now I like the Lions one a little better because this draft seems full enough with 1st-round quality talent that there should be good enough players left to make it worth keeping our second over an extra third, though the concern there would be if the Bills ended up with the player we wanted (Ngata would be my personal favorite pick for us to make). Although if you guys thought that the value of second and third round players would be about the same then the Bills offer seems the better one.

Also -- we can make other trades and stuff in this, right? Like not just the draft... so we can talk with the Pack about Javon Walker and all, right?...

EDIT: nvm, apparently Javon Walker's a Pittsburgh Steeler... but yeah that answers my question too.
