Chad Cota was a steal for a 7th rounder.

Mike Minter single handedly saved the 1997 draft.

I don't think we had another player worth mentioning until Jeno James in the 6th round '00.... and he ain't worth mentioning.

Those were some horrible drafts.

At least we got some light at the end of the tunnel in 2001.

The draft is probably the #1 reason John Fox is still around. Seifert gave us those great 2001 picks, but Fox made them stars.

Was Shaun King's pic a mug shot?

LOL, that's what I thought when I looked at it...

You can call Polian a genius if you like, but there were some pretty empty drafts under his watch.

It's easy to look like a genius when Peyton Manning falls into your lap and word is that Polian almost traded that pick to the Panthers.

The Panthers' moves in the 1995 draft were epic. Trading away the weak #1 and coming out with 3 1st round picks? Holy wazoo.

I always wondered why Polian went to the Colts. I mean, he is responsible for the Titans' success a decade ago. He passed on McNair (RIP) to get Kerry Collins, and Eddie George to get Tim Biakabutuka,

I'm still waiting to see good things from this pick. After we released Lucas, we needed some secondary help. There was talk he might become a WR, but Fox put him in exactly the role I thought he would be a good fit for (CB).

He started off quiet, but played well in Arizona, then kind of went quiet again. I'm hoping he comes alive this year.

You didn't see the 3 INTs he got in the short amount of play time he got last year?

      After Graham, next best Dline players

      By SCO96 · Posted

      Current draft order NYG, NE, JAX, TN, CLE, LV, CAR. We need to ask ourselves "what is the biggest need of those teams heading into the draft"? And, "What positions do we know are not major needs for the teams above?" JAX is terrible, but we know they won't be drafting a QB. The Patriots won't be either. The Raiders and Giants definitely need a QB. The Browns have one under contract, but he's been terrible since they signed him. I could see all 3 of them eyeing QB's. Hunter is a wild card. He could be the first player taken. Or, he could slip because some teams may not want to deal with his insistence on playing both ways. A team with a bad O-line may want to go LT TMAC is going to appeal to a team that needs a playmaker at WR. If CB is major need, I could see Will Thomas (or Hunter) coming off the board prior to our selection at #7. It's possible that Graham could fall into our laps. Then again we haven't factored FA into the equation. A lot of these teams will lure some players just because of the large amount of dollars they afford to play them and fix some needs before the draft. It's going to be an interesting off-season.

      PFF: grading WR by ability to separate, YAC and catching the ball

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Sure, but despite being targeted less, he has more TDs than Odunze and more y/r than Nabers (and same number of TDs).  He's got a very similar y/r as Worthy.  He isn't stacking up that poorly to other WRs, but he has trailed off late - something that imo may indicate injury or needing to improve conditioning. He's not ever gonna be the best WR in this draft class, but he'll be in the top 3-5 with a bit of improvement imo.

      Oh for sure. With Rod it’s never the defenses fault. I think someone posted this in Reddit a while back. Rod with the forwards. Rod with the defense.
