[QUOTE=dmek25]i think the reason we took rogers over rolle was personality to fit into gibbs core system[/QUOTE]

Also, Rolle wasn't available when we picked Rogers.

[QUOTE=dmek25]what exactly would the skins do with h miller?another te isnt helping on defense and cooley could be all pro[/QUOTE]CHRIS COOLEY=H-BACK
ROBERT ROYAL=shitty TE

Re: Who Should We Have Drafted?
 

Our defense would be fine if we would have kept Ron Warner and Antonio Pierce. Blache favors big, strong, immobile DEs though to stop the run. Teams figured that out and now pass all over us.

Re: Who Should We Have Drafted?
 

with hindsight, merriman @9, h miller @25 (or even betterm trade down and grab darrent williams in the 2nd (16-20) and another pick in the third), chris canty @120, mccune @154 (potential), nemo @222 (potential)...

its much easier to pick them now though.

[QUOTE=htownskinfan]Im sitting here watching the lions game and it got me thinking about Mike Williams,which got me thinking about the draft.A lot of people on the board wanted us to draft Williams,hes had virtually no impact in Detroit,but are wr corp is very thin and he would be very helpful right now.Matt Jones leads the rookie wr class in receptions,which just blows my mind since he was a qb,strike 1,plus he's white!! strike 2,lol
Antrell Rolle has a few more tackle then Carlos Rogers,but their about even.
10 games into the season i think our biggest weakness is def line,if we had the draft to do over again and we still had the same picks in the draft,I would take Demarcus Ware and then maybe a cb or wr with the 25th pick instead of Campbell,so the question is are you happy with our draft picks? or who do you think we should have picked?[/QUOTE]

Hes QB is garbage........why you think he hasnt had an impact

[QUOTE=Ramseyfan]We didn't have a late first day pick. Remember, we only had two firsts, one fourth, one fifth, one sixth, and one seventh.

We could have picked him with our 4th pick, but we used that on Manuel White. As some of you may recall, White got injured and placed on IR. What is even more upsetting about that pick is he saw little to no playing time in the preseason. While that isn't a good sign, it's a little early to say it was a bad pick.[/QUOTE]


We would have had our 2nd & 3rd and next year's 1st, if we hadn't wasted all on a QB! DE has been a need for 10 years. :dallas: :dallas:

Actually, we traded last year's 3rd and 4th rounders plus next year's 1st rounder. Our 2nd round pick went to New Orleans for the 3rd rounder we got in 2003 to draft Chris Cooley (we didn't have the 3rd rounder in 2003 because we traded it for Mark Brunell).

I doubt we would have been able to draft a starting DE with a 3rd or 4th rounder. At best, we would have gotten a good situational pass-rusher.

Plus, who knows, maybe Campbell will turn out to be a stud. It's very early to be judging the wisdom of trading all those picks for Campbell. We haven't even seen him play a single down in the regular season.
