Re: The official 2008 draft discussion thread

Are we going to go the whole first round without a WR chosen? Has that ever happened before?

Merling should get to us. GB, NYG don't need DE. Merling doesn't fit MIA 3-4 and Rams already took Chris Long.

DeSean Jackson, Phillip Merling, Brandon Flowers, Kenny Phillips, Limas Sweed... we're getting one of them. ;]

If Miami doesn't take Merling, he's ours at 34.

Merling at 34 would be excellent value.

I think you're right on. NYG might take Kenny Philips (they need secondary help), Miami probably takes Chad Henne, and unless St. Louis is really trying to improve their pass rush, we'll get Merling.

Unless of course Vinny doesn't want him. Either way, Merling has been Kiper's best available for quite awhile for what it's worth.
