Supplemental Draft to begin on Thursday July 12, do you think we will make a move?

[CHIEF CHUCKING MY SPEAR]

i would take gaithers with a third round pick we need some young olinemen. Our tackles are going old.

According to PFT.com, the rumor is that Gaithers will go in Round 5. We'll see how accruate he is on this one.

With our current talent evaluators (and Im speaking about guys taken after Rd 3) I would go for using a 5th on Gaithers now that Ive read some about him. I just don't think the current structure can evaluate talent after the 3rd round anyway, why not?

Golston & MOntgomery made the team last year as 5th & 6th rnd. picks, and while they've yet to prove anything, many praised the skins (which is unusual) nabbing Sartz & Blades in the 5th & 6th this year.

If what you mean is that the mgmt. structure is such that the right people aren't making the calls on draft day, I don't know but you may have a point, given what's been said about the danny's meddling. But I"m not ready to say that if we commit to the draft we won't start seeing some results. I think we will, even beyond the 3rd rnd.

I have no faith in the Scouting Dep't of the Skins, or in the draft picks utilized by the FO, to select quailty talent past round 3. Yes, Golston & Montgomery made the team, but IMO that speaks to our incredible lack of talent on the D-line more than their respective abilities. I think on most teams, those guys don't even make the squad.

Golston would definitely make most teams in this league, maybe not as a starter but as a #3 DT in a rotation he's a quality backup.

what time is the draft by the way? How does it exactly work. Do they call off, who wants so and so in this round and if someone picks him then he goes off the board? What if two teams want someone in the 4th round, what happens? Can you pick someone up in a round if you don't have the draft spot next year. Like if you traded your 5th but you want somone there, do you have to wait for the 6th?

Slightly different. Teams submit "bids" and the highest bidding team wins. Sooo, if the Skins would use a 5th rounder on a player, they would submit that players name with a 5th round pick bid. If they are the highest bidder than they get the player and lose a corresponding draft pick in next years draft. If 2 teams submit the same bid, then it goes by draft order.

oh, I do agree though that he may be worth a 5th, but I think the staff will want to keep the vets they have for depth this year, see how things work out & draft some o linemen to develop next year.

Baltimore snagged Gaither in the 5th round. PFT was right on this one.

If you throw enough turds at the wall one of them is bound to stick.

They probably ripped off another source anyway, that's all they seem to do.

That's about the size of it, even a blind squireel get's a nut every now and then...?

That describes PFT pretty well....TURD!

Gaither went to Baltimore in the fifth round.
I think that's a great pick up for them because I could definitely see him taking over for Ogden in a year or so.

[BigSKINBauer]

That sucks.
