From my understanding, I think the main reason we ended up with Brown (instead of Harris) is because we didn't have a pick that Denver wanted. Now that Denver has made it clear that Harris isn't in their future plans, he's most likely going to end here.

If it does end up that way, it means we spent a 2nd, 3rd, and 4th round picks on 2 one year rentals. /facepalm

Really if not Locker or Ponder, I'd rather just wait until the middle to late rounds and maybe get someone like Stanzi or McElroy (neither of which are franchise guys in my opinion)
Lol, Mallet needs the following line to protect him.

LT - Ryan Clady
LG - Jhari Evans
C - Nick Mangold
RG - Logan Mankins
RT - Jake Long
TE - Anthony Becht
RB - Clinton Portis

Maybe then he'll have time to throw.

But dude seriously that O-Line woud be BOSS!

Mallet?! You've been living in the Southwest too long. Mallet will be squatting in an abandoned building within three years. Ryan Leaf will be his roommate.

Well technically I'm in the Southeast lol , I just think with a solid line he'd be a really good qb

Ryan Mallett is an extremely talented qb. I would love for us to draft him.

Re: 2011 NFL Draft

Yeah we could definitely use more new threads. These jumbo all in one threads get out of control and are hard to keep up with.

Re: 2011 NFL Draft

After watching the program my self, I really came away impressed with the attitude both Tyrod Taylor and Jake Locker have toward the game.

I'm actually on the fence about the way Cam was talking. At points I could almost see the fire in his eyes in that he wanted to prove his doubters wrong. I'm just not sure how long that'll last if he's gonna be a top pick (which he will be).

I second that. Would love to get both of these guys this draft.

Tyrod Taylor will never be a qb in this league and Jake Locker is a certified loser.

Re: 2011 NFL Draft

Jake Locker is most definitely not a certified loser

Re: 2011 NFL Draft

Sorry L44 I agree on Mallett but JL is far from a loser, he took a team that went 0-12 to a bowl game and won, he's not Peyton manning but he's no loser either

Re: 2011 NFL Draft

Maybe loser was to strong of a word to describe Jake Locker. I think unproductive is a better word to describe this guy. Outside of a few highlights he really hasn't done much. He doesn't make the guys around here better. He doesn't pass the ball all that well. Let face this kid hasn't went up against the best competition and he's still lost a lot games at Washington. Honestly don't see anything about Jake Locker (outside of his athleticism) that I find impressive. I'll give him his credit he'll make a couple of incredible plays, but for the most part he's ineffective.
