I just saw that on nfl.com and just went with it. haha<br /><br />We'll be lucky to deal with any FA at the rate this whole labor talk stuff is going. I'd take a weak FA now than nothing.

We just need a DT real badly still and we will have to make due with what we can get now. I am glad they didn't get one who they didn't feel good about getting though like Paea or Austin. I like our draft. Re-signing Thomas and McBean may become a priority now. Maybe we can get Okoye from Houston. Trading up for Fairley would've been kinda cool, but it would've definatly cost us Moore, Franklin and Thomas. Not sure I like that idea then. I'll take what we got, with a smile. It's Miller time. We said we wanted a Tebow for the D.

Also the last two DTs that we drafted were Marcus Thomas and Trevor Pryce (though he is more a DE no).

We have only drafted 3 LB's since 2000. DJ Williams-04, Terry Pierce-03, and Ian Gold-00. We have lived off of free agency at linebacker for too long. I didn't count spencer larsen as he has seen more action as a fullback than LB. But that is insane. We drafted as many LB's this year as we have in the last decade!

I figured I didn't need to mention the errors of the piece so I just waited for you to see it and fix it. Thanks!<br /><br />LOL, just razzin' on the frizzle a little bit. I couldn't help it. You were just so ticked we picked up Von, you practically fed me the words to say. haha I totally get what you're saying & where you're coming from on the whole thing. I could not, not write those parts in there, ya know. Too easy! Watch what you say around me, I'll use it later! :D All I am saying is give the guy a chance, I know he's got to prove himself to you but he deserves that chance to prove himself. <br /><br />I think he's got the potential to do great things for this team, just need to find him a consistent spot on the D. Notice that when he was in college they kept moving him around, he never really got a chance to be consistent in what he does best, pass-rush. I think if we can place in the right spot to do that and keep him at it, he'll turn out to be just what we need and get him doing what he loves... harassing the QB. haha<br /><br />I thought it was funny too, that's why I did it. Anyway, Aussie, you might want to put up your piece on Irving, don't know when I'll feel like doing another article soon. I wrote this in one day but these things wipe me out! lol Give me a week and may have my piece on Rahim up. Don't wait on me, go ahead and do your article. No big deal.

And I understand where you are coming from Jazzy. Miller I think we be something special. I hope so, where as I think MD is just solid. You don't pick solid at 2, you go some special. Plus I would give them 3 years before comparing the pick. It ususally takes that long for them to reach full potential.<br /><br />Also heard we wanted Jarvis Jenkins, we wanted him more that Austin and Paea.Gouldinator1https://www.blogger.com/profile/14512639910101830045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8161328106437706233.post-67733189623766706162011-05-04T20:28:48.780-07:002011-05-04T20:28:48.780-07:00Haha, princess is picking on me now.

I am just a bit bummed we didn;t get our DT. I would have been more okay with the selection if we had picked Paea or Marvin Austin. Then we could have picked up an OT in FA or later on in the draft. I am excited about what I see from Von, but he will have to prove to me over the season that he was the better choice over MD. Because a solid DT is not easy to come across.<br /><br />Nice article princess!JaZzYfRiZzLehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12742586497615058611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8161328106437706233.post-1242530707341885632011-05-04T16:31:17.998-07:002011-05-04T16:31:17.998-07:00Great article Princess!
