Then, we'll be ready to play Let's Make a Deal.

My thoughts exactly!

I am now throwing full support behind the draft lineman only plan in 2011.

Are you planning on slipping ruffies to the Front Office with the first overall pick in 2012? Because unless you're prepared to break the law we won't get the first overall pick. The team that gets that first overall pick is going to hold onto that pick like it's air.

Re: NFL Draft Day 2: Predictions

Does anyone realize that for all the talk of Shanahan being in charge and everything else that our draft is shaping up to be more of a Bruce Allen draft? I mean we pass on Gabbert, get Kerrigan in the first. Now with our second round picks we're being linked to Guards, Centers, and Nose Tackles.

Salary cap expert my ass. BA is a trench drafting machine. And no I'm not complaining. If anything it's a nice direction even though in a sense I'm being dragged kicking and screaming away from wanting to draft a QB.

Just hope that we don't stay in QB limbo for to long like Tampa did going with guys like Griese, McCown, and Gradowski.

However at the very least we're finally drafting in the trenches and personally I love it.

Increasingly looking like we won't draft a QB in round 2 (which probably mean we'll draft 2, ha!)

Heard even more people today, that I hadn't talked to before, mention Vince Young (and Hasselbeck though he's less likely)

Paea may not be as likely in round 2 either today.

My gut says we trade out of 41 and take Hudson/Wis at 49

I'm thinking we take OL/RB in the 2nd ADD VY and just start pounding the football!

Also SS any word on McNabb? Steve Mariucci was saying he thinks we will keep him for 1 more season?

Re: NFL Draft Day 2: Predictions

Thanks for the intel.

Any word on when the rules for transactions will be released? (trying to trade McNabb)

Re: NFL Draft Day 2: Predictions

I have a question for those that would like to see us draft Dalton:

What puts him ahead of Mallett for you? Off-field or on-field issues?

Just curious

Dalton over Mallet
4 year starter vs 2 year starter Junior (Juniors historically are bust)
Accuracy is better, though Mallet is much improved in this area
Great intangibles. Won't have to worry about him working hard or partying all night
Dalton isn't a statue
Higher Floor

Mallet over Dalton
Huge arm
Not a ginger
Numbers against better competition
Higher Ceiling
Experience in Pro System

yeah that's basically where I am with this comparison, especially the ginger part :P

I think if I had to make a choice though, I would take Mallett. He has a franchise qb's skill set imo.

Re: NFL Draft Day 2: Predictions

My ideal Situation (not including if we can possibly trade)
41st - Dalton/Kaepernick
49th - Best Availabe Player on board at either NT, DE, C, RT, RG, RB.

If Qb isnt there
41st - Best Availabe Player on board at either NT, DE, C, RT, RG, RB.
49th - Best Availabe Player on board at either NT, DE, C, RT, RG, RB.

Re: NFL Draft Day 2: Predictions

No more word than I heard yesterday, which is sure they're interested but probably won't go out of their way to get him

Re: NFL Draft Day 2: Predictions

Yeah, I don't think so. I really believe McNabb is gone. The two sides (redskins/mcnabb) may have had a difficult 2010 but they truly do respect each other too much to make McNabb just sit around

Any word of trade rumors on other teams? Like Carson Palmer or K Kolb?
