Okay guys,

Its 12:01am March 2,2005......what do you think should be the Skins top priority coming right out the gates?

I think our biggest need is on the O-Line so would immediately snag a top-flight guard. Then I'd give Martz a call and offer up a 4th rounder for Turley.

Balmerskinsfan · 02-08-2005, 03:27 PM

I'd love for the skins draft for the o-line first, but I have an even simpler request of them. Draft people. Please. Draft at least 6 players. No more of this free agent bullshit please, I'm sick of it. Turley would do great on any other team and other teams would/will get him at good value, but we'd trade a second round pick, overpay him, and he'd blow out his ACL two games into the season. Can we please draft deep for once?

I agree with the drafting 100% but Turley is done. He might even have to retire this year because of his back. If we even look at him it would be a disaster.

Yellow31 · 02-08-2005, 04:30 PM

What about the 2 rookie OL they drafted last year any word on how they progessed in practice throughout the season. I can't think of their names but one of the 2 started a game when Randy Thomas was out and then he got hurt too. I remember reading somewhere that Bugel said they were making good progress. Anyone else heard anything??

Duffman003 · 02-08-2005, 04:49 PM

I'm pretty sure Kyle Turely is a right tackle anyway.

celts32 · 02-08-2005, 05:11 PM

Turley is a bad seed. he has caused trouble at every stop. ANd as Duff just pointed out he's a tackle anyway.

jdlea · 02-08-2005, 05:20 PM

I'd like to seem em lay low until the draft. Maybe have a look at a DE or two, but just kick back and draft good players.

MTK · 02-08-2005, 05:27 PM

I wouldn't touch Turley until he gets back on the field and proves he's 100% again.

He had a pretty serious back injury.

jrocx69 · 02-08-2005, 05:59 PM

i would like to draft a few guards. no FA guards, let buges teach techniques to them raw instead of a guy who has been infected with techniques from another nfl coach

skins009 · 02-08-2005, 07:47 PM

Trade for Turley, why? Our o-line is set with the exception of the center position. Thats what we really need. Granted i'm assuming we bring Samuels back. We need to draft a pass rusher. I certainly agree though that we need a solid draft. Were gonna have to make some cuts next year and need some cheap labor.

monk81 · 02-08-2005, 10:26 PM

Has anyone heard of any top lineman in this year's draft. The problem is there might not be anyone better than who we drafted last year. Any offensive lineman we could get in free agency?...................

After OL, I think we need to go DE .............WR to replace Gardner.............

e16bball · 02-09-2005, 01:17 AM

There probably arent any OL worthy of the 9th pick, especially at guard. We can definitely find a pretty decent center in the third round.

The only way we could probably address T or G early in the draft would be by trading down from number 9 and picking up a 2nd rounder in the process. That would probably leave us drafting anywhere from 11 to 17. At that point in the first, we could justify taking Alex Barron from Florida State or Jammal Brown from Oklahoma, who are basically the consensus 2 best tackles in the draft. In the second round, we might have a chance at any of the top guards, who are Elton Brown from UVA, David Baas from Michigan (might convert to C), and Marcus Johnson from Ole Miss. The tackles who might be available and worth a 2nd rounder include Logan Mankins from Fresno St. (might convert to G), Adam Terry from Syracuse, and Khalif Barnes from Washington.

With the current state of our line, though, and assuming that Samuels is still around, I think our best course is to take either Mike Williams or Braylon Edwards if they are still available at 9. Mel Kiper's most recent mock has us selecting Williams. We could then address C in the third and our offense would be upgraded a great deal. Now if neither of those WRs is there, we are probably best off trading down, picking up a second rounder, and selecting the best available DE in the first. We could then take Baas in the 2nd and convert him to C, where I think he would dominate. In the 3rd, we could address WR, as there will be a couple of possible sneaky steals.

That's just my opinion, though, and I wonder what anyone else thinks about those scenarios?

aehs77 · 02-09-2005, 01:11 PM

if smoot goes which is looking like a sure thing. I think we go after rolle. then get a free agent d-end. then draft linemen with our next three picks.
