Re: 2011 NFL Draft
Some good comments on Dalton and as you will see he does run well:

Re: 2011 NFL Draft
I just can't believe that many draft boards only have ONE running back (Ingram) going in the first round. I think many have taken to the multi rb systems and their value has plumetted. Alot of people trying to be a shanahan, and turn those rough late rounders into polished gems.

Re: 2011 NFL Draft
^ this RB class appears to be weak but I'm sticking with DMurray as the sleeper back similar to a Felix jones but even more injured in college. Leshore to me is more of a short yardage guy like ATV. Ingram was damn good in college but he's slow and small, unless your * cough* ESmith I don't think that works well in the NFL.

Re: 2011 NFL Draft
SS, as we wind down to a couple weeks left until the draft, are there any names your hearing we might target with our late picks? Any sleepers who are good fits from any sources? Thanks

Re: 2011 NFL Draft
Trading up for a QB?
John McClain of the Houston Chronicle reports he hears the Redskins are trying like crazy to trade up to get one of the quarterbacks, presumably Blaine Gabbert out of Missouri. Some mocks have them taking quarterback Jake Locker if they stay at 10. What a reach that would be, but Mike Shanahan loves mobile quarterbacks who can throw on the run Redskins might trade up to draft a quarterback

Re: 2011 NFL Draft
Man this draft is such a mystery. I can't remember the last time where there were so many options.

Re: 2011 NFL Draft
I think the lack of free agency has made it even more unpredictable.

Re: 2011 NFL Draft
Happy to hear Ponder could be back in the mix.
Redskins eyeing a move back - CBSSports.com My bold prediction is they keep their #10 and take Quinn and also move up into lower 3rd of the 1st for a QB

Re: 2011 NFL Draft
My bold prediction with this qb class and their rankings in the NFL.
1. Dalton 2. Ponder 3. Locker 4. Gabbert 5. Newton Their draft order might be the complete 180 degree opposite. That's how bold this prediction is. |
