Because Jerry Jones really missed the boat with Julius Jones....

Now - Gibbs can't weed like he once can. We have huge contracts and penelties for breaking them. You make your bed and you have to lie in it. THat's how today's NFL works. So he may be stuck with players he doesn't want, just like I'm sure every coach in the league is.

Granted they got that one right, but his draft track record is far from stellar..

[QUOTE=offiss]Great! I think that Giant win last night helped a lot, I can live with the #8 pick we now have some bargaining power, I still say we have to trade down, and get a big time center whether it be by draft, or free agency is imperative to the success of our team next year, we have to AND I mean HAVE TO get someone in there who can man the middle, I would replace Samuel's as well unless he really restructures his contract, I was up in the air about Dockery and tries to keep a close eye on him to evaluate, and I think he's really coming along infact if we get a quality center next to him we could be talking greatness for this kid.[/QUOTE]
I really soured on Dockery when I saw him with his massive hands on hips basically motionless after the fumble during the Vikings game. In contrast Ray Brown aka the Ageless One was hustling diving for the loose ball, which was closer to Dockery, who did not even block anyone on the play. Sorry but the whole play was reminisceint of Jeff George, when he made no effort whatsover to recover a fumble.

I didn't see that, I saw him a few times getting out a leveling people, it's tough to focus on a lineman during a play because you want to watch the ball I do think he's far better off than George. George was a malcontent, this kid seem's to have a pretty good head on his shoulders I am hoping he's a keeper.

I've seen Dockery make quite a few nice blocks this year, and I've even seen him pulling out and getting around the corner.

To me he's shown enough to bring him back as the starter next year. That being said he needs to make significant strides next year to keep his job beyond that.

Dockery didn't see the ball - once he did he started to run, but it was too late. He was upset about the sack.

well that damn auburn qb looked very good last night,he would look good in the B&G.

On the subject of the draft does anyone know who has Mel Kipper projected for the first round of the '05 draft? Not trying to imply the Kipper is the best at this sort of thing, he just the only person that I am aware of who would have such a list this earlier before even the combines.

Here's a link to Mel's big board but it will be changing quite a bit until all the under classmen declare.

Yeah, but Joe Gibbs isn't going to let a rookie quarterback get anywhere near the playing field during the '05 regular season. Hell, for 10 games last year, he didn't let a 3-year veteran play either. Mark this one down, we won't draft a QB until maybe after the 4th round, if that.

Why dont we lose all of our game next year so we can get the #1 pick, well win 2 games at least by beating Dallas. We should of won more games this year and it should not even be at the 9th pick. I am sick and tired of getting high draft picks year after year.

Bottom line is we dont deserve the 9th pick.

i hope we go after a big play reciever,like the guy who got suspended from usc.that dude could really make an impact in gibbs offense.

That's Mike Williams. He's the highest rated wide receiver, and he'll be gone by the 3rd or 4th pick. Michigan's Braylon Edwards is generally mentioned as the second highest prospect, and he [I]may[/I] still be there at #9, but I doubt it.

Don't have ESPN insider so could not see the 'big board'. I think it is a load of BS that ESPN makes folks pay, for something that they used to let you see for free, what a crock.

I'm not a big Big Ten fan (live in ACC country) so I only say Braylon Edwards play once vs. MSU. He looked good, but I've also read in the WP and ESPN that he has a habit of being inconsistent. Anyone know anything about him at all? Good pick or are we going to get another Desmond Howard from UM?
