41" vertical, though.

I think the cowboys easily had the worst draft this year no matter what they do in their later rounds just for the simple fact that they could have had a stud of a rb in either jackson or jones and passed on both of them and had to settle on jones of notre dame.

the best draft so far, and probably the entire draft for their first two picks alone,goes to the lions. Adding Roy Williams and Kevin Jones to Joey Harrington, Charles Rodgers, and Hazim, is a freakingly scary young offense.

and i agree with whomever it was who posted how much of a monster line the raiders have rebuilt with their picks of gallery and grove. it kinda makes sense for grove to go there too with his do anything to get the job done mentality.

cooley was given a grade if 78 by espn's team of scouts and taylor was a 99 but under taylor's grade it has an alert about his character on and off the field. anyone know what they might be talking about?

SKINSnCANES · 04-24-2004, 04:38 PM

They went back and showed teh highlight real for Taylor. Did anyone else think that Taylor didnt look to excited when he found out?

Bengals take Chris Perry, RB, Michigan

Dave Butz Baby! · 04-24-2004, 04:39 PM

Man.. Chris Perry over Kevin Jones to the Bengles.

SKINSnCANES · 04-24-2004, 04:41 PM

very surprising pick. I dont think they made their team better with that pick. They could have picked up a player at a position of need. If anything now they have a running back controversy.

hi-jinx · 04-24-2004, 04:44 PM

They have a ton of picks to address other issues but I agree. I dont see where RB was a need for them. Unless they see the upside of Perry really high and figured they could take a chance or they think one of them is a good 3rd down back?

cpayne5 · 04-24-2004, 04:43 PM

IMO, KJones is a better complement to Rudi Johnson than Perry.

SKINSnCANES · 04-24-2004, 04:45 PM

They must have been targeting him and just moved down to pick up some picks because they knew he would still be there. Hell Jackson was available when their pick came up, why didnt they just take them.

It's been an odd draft day thus far.

Titans trade the pick to Houston

Houston takes Jason Babin, DE, Western Michigan

SKINSnCANES · 04-24-2004, 04:53 PM

Hm, another weird pick... I thought the Titans were going to pick Troupe or Jones.
