| Would you rather take Travis Johnson, DT, Florida State or Fabian Washington, CB, Nebraska at pick number 29? |

| Washington would be a huge stretch that high IMO so Johnson but I dont see him going to Indy with his off field probs. If he drops this far, it tells you that he is seen as a risk for character issues and Polian is not one to risk his locker room on a marginal character. That is my opinion |

| Fabian Washington without out because you cant teach speed you can teach a player how to play defense so with a 4.2 40yd dash I would pick him up in a heartbeat. Tony Dungy can mold him into a shutdown corner. |

Yeah like he was molding the rest of our half-*ss D into greatness
Washington is a bigger need area and agree that they would and should avoid head cases. Take the CB. |

I hear this all the time. I guess the term track coach is an oxymoron. I guess all the time players spend at these new schools training for the combine and work out season are a waste. All I know is that Washington apparently cant tackle a sock puppet. Reynaldo Nehemiah was not a good WR despite his speed, Herb Washington as a designated base stealer never made an impact. speed is only of use on the football field for a football player, not a track man. I dont think "Fabio" Washington is in the top ten CBs this year, no matter how fast he can run. Time will tell |

| I'd take Johnson in a second. THe colts need a good DT more than a super-fast CB. Washington is all speed, no skills. |
