The official 2008 draft discussion thread

Another thing, how many times in the past four years have we taken a defender with the first pick?

Off the top of my head, it was like Carlos Rogers, Rocky McIntosh, Sean Taylor (R.I.P)..who else?

Bam! Thanks. How could I forget that guy. But my only point is, it's not like we pull the offense overhaul thing every year. We're usually going for defenders. Crap, save Jason Campbell, when was the last time we put such an emphisis on offense so early in the draft

We'll be fine, fellas. Just fine.

Even then though, Carlos Rogers was our first pick that year.
