DT #11 will be solid .. so will FD#86 .. I believed in Zorn hole heartedly .. but this was really put a black cloud over him .. the bashing of Portis .. the never throw down field mentality .. 4 weeks ago I would have said Cowher was a pipe dream .. now i'm not so sure

I saw Campbell set up to throw down field four or five times today. He ended up checking down or throwing intermediate passes.

As for trades, on draft day trades happen quite often. I'm not talking trading player for player, I'm talking players for picks or sweetening a draft pick deal.
