[quote=SmootSmack;691509]NFP "source" is just a link to Fanhouse, so it's not multiple sources. It's really just one guy.

The real conversation right now with the Rams is about their 1st pick....in the 2nd round

(right now word is Berry is our pick if we stay at #4, so I guess they think they can get their OT at the top of the 2nd? And/or add Jammal Brown?) Still plenty of time to go though[/quote]

I was thinking that Berry would be the surprise if we stayed at 4. I'd love to have the kid, his play is great and it's nice hearing him talk about his visit and how he models his game after 21. If we do that we need to figure out something with the line though definitely. What are we doing to get the pick at the top of the 2nd?

[quote=BigHairedAristocrat;691511][B]Schefter just confirmed that he doesnt see this happening as the Rams are asking too much for the rights to Bradford. [/B]What I dont get is what some Rams beat writer allegedly said on ESPN - He used the analogy of a guy going into buy a suit (Bradford) and can't make his mind up so while he's waiting they get him to buy a tie(Carriker). How can the team's beat writer be dumb enough to not know we've been pursuing Carriker for a while. I don't think any teams beat writers have the slightest clue of whats going on.

I also still don't see what the love affair with Bradford is - he has alot of potential, but no one thinks he could be ready to start right away and i dont think you can spend the #1 overall pick on a guy you dont expect to start (and play at a decent-to-above average level) immediately.[/quote]

But...but...but I thought you said Schefter is the one guy you couldn't trust for Redskins news because of his close relation with Shanahan?

Damn Berry? I want to get some of whatever KS is on. I still dont see how our Oline is good.

I would be upset if we got Berry, but not as much as if we got a QB.

Cowboys front runners for Jared Gaither apparently

I mean it's still early, and I would suspect they're not going after Berry without having a plan to get an OT or two elsewhere. I'm certain that we will have at least one new OT before Saturday morning

Re: Draft News for the Warpath
 

I wouldn't hate the Berry pick at all, just as long as we've got plans to get a quality LT somewhere, somehow, which I'm sure we do.

Can you say Flozell.

[quote=SFREDSKIN;691526]Can you say Flozell.[/quote]

Still a possibility, but I think a remote one.

Re: Draft News for the Warpath
 

I am fine with Berry over the OT. We need to pick the best player on the board that can help us the most for the next 10 years not just the guy we need the most 4 months from now.

Re: Draft News for the Warpath
 

According to the evil news media...Berry is possibly the most complete pick in the draft and I've even read that some consider him the best player in the draft, the only knock on him being that he is a safety and no one wants to pay #1 pick money to a safety. Would he be a quality addition to our team? Sure, do we desperately need a quality addition elsewhere in the lineup? Oh yeah...

But yeah, I essentially agree with Matty...

Re: Draft News for the Warpath
 

a) Skins pick Berry
b) Skins package Landry in a trade for Jammal Brown

Poof. Upgrade at FS and LT.

Master of the Obvious quote of the day: If the Boyz get Gaither and we end up with Flozell or Levi that is not a good thing...

I cringe everytime I think about our current starting o-line. I hope that I can have a celebratory beverage tonight...

KS isn't picking.. he'll have his input though.

I'd be happy with that.

I like this scenario.
