Tell me this is true. Did we bring him in for a workout?

yeah like i said it was said or printed somewhere but don't see him listed here...SOM u shouldn't get you're hopes up too much for Rey cuz it seems the FO is going in a different direction. I'm w/ you thinking Rey will have one of the best careers from this year's draft, but i doubt he's high on our list.

Ok I'll be honest...during the highlights reel there I started to hyperventilate over Rey. Seriously, after Curry i honestly believe he's is the best talent at LB this draft and won't be surprised if he has a more successful career in the end. Note to the naysayers...don't try and tell me Rey isn't an immediate upgrade at OLB for us (for the next two years until he becomes our monster in the middle). Let me get this straight, a lot of us r "ok" w/ Blades starting at OLB but somehow Rey is a no-go. Really?

...fellas, this isn't the crown & coke talking...Rey is the real deal. At 13 the only players I'd take over him are A. Smith or BJ Raji (who could possibly fall to us).

It's just we have a fourth ranked defense that just added Albert Haynesworth. The O needs to get upgraded and for that to happen we need to make sure that Campbell has time to throw. Now maybe this turns out like 2004 (with a happier ending) in that we get the better player in the first and then find an absolute diamond in the rough during the third round and if thats so then fine but getting a RT that can start is crucial and they're rarely available in the 3rd . In fact getting a guy that can play LT and RT might be even more important should god forbid Samuals go down again.

I know Vinny is high on Rey but from the interviews I've seen with him and what I've heard it seems like he's higher on Andre Smith.

Yep...A. Smith has to be taken over Rey no doubt DB. But I highly doubt Smith falls beyond 10 now. All the talk of him free-falling was hype, now teams are just going on that talent. If Detroit goes OT @ 1 then Monroe will go top 5 and Cinci will grab Smith @ 6, but regardless I just highly doubt Smith falls below 10. Oher is a much tougher call from where we sit. If the FO takes him over Rey, taking into consideration all the scouting, I have to trust their work. BUT HE DAMN WELL BETTER START ON THE LINE THIS YEAR.

...btw I totally, completely agree w/ u on the need to add OT talent this off-season. If we don't do so in the draft than FA is a must. Bet anything Levi Jones comes available after Cinci drafts a starter at OT. Samuels is a superior LT so we could try to lure Jones into RT...Jansen and Heyer as backups then. Or I guess we could draft OT later or grab a mediocre FA, but that's irresponsible IMHO. We need to draft one @ 13 or get a legit starter from FA who's probably been cut for financial reasons after his franchise drafted a starter on the first day of the draft

Hail!

Thanks for the update Goat. I hope they're just playing it close to vest, like last year when no one was aware that they were going to draft J Mayo. We didn't get him but I would love to get Rey.
