Michael Lombardi's mock draft

[CatMan72]

It's interesting that he made the Gabbert/Ryan and Fairley/Dorsey comparison just like an inferior site...

[Swarly]

And that's another thing. I've been told over and over that there is no clear cut #1 pick, yet I'm supposed to believe that we're engineering this brilliant smokescreen in order to get somebody to give us some of their draft picks for one of these players? I just don't buy it.

I don't think any of that will happen. It won't be traded. People thought the Rams would trade their #1 and they didn't. People thought the Lions would trade their #1 pick and they didn't. List goes on...

Unless there is an Andrew Luck/Peyton Manning type player, trades like that just don't happen.

[Millions]

Gabbert is drawing Ryan comparisons?

[Fright]

Puff Puff PASS.

[MattB]

He reminds me of Joe Flacco expect much more athletic. Still seems wide open as to who the number one QB is.

Monstercat and Teeray still don't understand the concept of a smoke screen just like Millions didn't understand my Clausen/Cam joke the other day.

I'm beginning to wonder about you guys.

You all seem to have something in common with the guy you love.

Yep, I agree. I just don't see us being able to trade down, unless somebody out there is just head over heals in love with one of the top players, and I don't think that's the case.

Just keep in mind everyone that this could be a smoke screen and TRD might really know that I do indeed know what a smoke screen is but he just doesn't want people to know that I know so he is saying I don't know just to set up a smoke screen.

It makes perfect sense if you don't think about it.

(note there is no smiley so don't neg rep me. That rep is my life blood)

I just need some way to express how much I hate you and the fact that it wouldn't let me negrep you is bothersome.

This doesn't change the content of my original post though. I can't remember why I threw you in there but I'm sure there is good reason, maybe not.

I don't think you realize that they're joking

If I didn't deserve it this time I will at some point so I'll take it. Just stay off my rep.

Having Lombardi give draft advice is funny- why did he get fired again?

[Dpantherman]

‘’Michael Lombardi has been relieved of his duties with The Oakland Raiders. The Raiders wish Michael and his family well.’’

Lombardi’s job had been in jeopardy since last season when a behind-the-scenes feud with former head coach Art Shell became public. Lombardi, who was reportedly unhappy with the team’s decision to hire Shell in the first place, was not allowed on the practice field and was kept at arm’s length from the football operations side of things.

Late in the 2006, the feud reached a new level when Shell lashed out at Lombardi, though not by name. Shell accused Lombardi of calling reporters around the country and criticizing the Raiders coach staff, particularly then-offensive coordinator Tom Walsh.

Shell was fired at the end of Oakland’s 2-14 season while Lombardi remained on the team’s payroll. But that was only a temporary reprieve as it turns out.

Lombardi had seen the writing on the wall. During the press conference announcing the hiring of head coach Lane Kiffin, Lombardi -- who normally attends such events and usually sits beside owner Al Davis -- was instead jogging around the business park where the Raiders’ facility is located.

Lombardi has also contacted several teams around the NFL seeking out potential jobs but with no luck.
