True that....

We have no track record of taking a OT this early and don't see that changing......

WTF?
??? How many times have we had this high of a pick and needed a OT!!!!??????
OK how many top 5 WR have done anything in the last 10 yrs. Yet everyone wants a guy that is bigger than anything we have but is not fast and has a history of dropping balls in close games.

Let's see...Since 1998 (10 years) there have been 5 WRs drafted in the Top-5...Here is the list..Yeah, there are so many busts on that list...You've got 2 Future HOFers in Fitz and AJ and one who's career should take off now that he's in Dallas...

Meanwhile the two busts are from the Leos and the Bungholes...Yeah, like they draft well anyways...

Calvin Johnson, who is good in spite of playing for the Leos...
Uh....Larry Fitzgerald who I'm sure you can't dispute..
Andre Johnson...

Peter Warrick...Bust
Charles Rogers....Bust...

Crabtree is the highest rated WR to come out since Fitz and he's probably the best player in the draft..And yet some of you FOOLS want a LT?

The window is fucking closing and some of you want to slam the door early? Unfuckingreal.....

Andre Johnson is in my opinion the best receiver in football and the way Fitz has been playing I'd have to put him at a very close 2nd so I think the risk vs. reward is well worth it.

we also had two first round picks that draft ..makes a difference in the areas you can address...plus I'm really only looking at the current management not over all history

If you luck out and get TJ..what would be the next need ? Everyone is going to say something different , but a back up to walter is a waste of money...that pick has to be an impact player and a guy who plays right away.......My hope is Runningback..these rookie backs are tearing it up and we need a break a way back that will suck the LB's up...JJ doesn't scare anybody and never will....and maybe a kid taking his job may spark a fire under his sorry ass..but i doubt it

Read my mind exactly. Andre and Fitz I believe are clearly the best receivers in the league right now, but Randy Moss (don't forgot about him just because Cassell doesn't throw deep much) and Calvin Johnson are quite close.

Andre Johnson, man, das my boi.

I know we had two picks, but you said we never take OL in the top 10 and was just saying he was a 7th overall selection. I think we could get a decent tackle in the 3rd round and have Walt mentor him. I do think that an underrated pick might be the DT from BC. I'm hearing more and more of his name coming out. However as Knapp has said we will run the ball more so Ida's point of a running back is possible also.

This is makes-me-want-to pull my hair out moronic. Tackles like that are very rare. Great football teams are built from the inside out. That back you want will need a hole to run through. Do you remember watching DeMarcus Ware abuse our line on thanksgiving? Walt is getting old, and though he MAY have a year or two left, he isn't what he was.

So you want to take a player who won't help NOW while we still have a window to win?

You know what's pull your hair out moronic? The fact I gave you a list of Top-5 WRs and you don't respond because you were wrong..

Oh, btw...Robert Gallery was taken in the Top-5 and he was a "can't miss"...Great pick eh?

bobflipaburger · #28 01-28-2009, 11:19 PM

Plus look at the quarter backs that those bust top 5 wide outs had.. I believe they both had Jon Kitna...

Seattlehawk94 · #29 01-29-2009, 12:00 AM

LOLOLOLOL

Yeah, kinda explains why they turned into busts...

I personally feel that Walter is likely not going to make it through the season. He's been playing since 97 and starting to see a drop off. I think it's dumb that people think he can keep going forever while some of these same people think that Hass, who probably does have some good years left, should go. I don't remember your list of Top-5 WR's, I'll check it out when I get home from work.
I dont believe in a "window." I want a consistant winner.
