this is why we're going to trade back to somebody wanting Mariota
Stafford with no pro bowl selections? He threw for 5,038 yards and 41 td's in 2011 and didn't make it? That's criminal.
the jets and bucs will be in the market for a franchise qb, hopefully we get the #1 pick
Wow...like maybe Andrew Luck will be a HoF of the most recent picks...
Mein Avatar and signature
looks good
Pretty much hit or miss here. A lot of pressure to make the right decision, and what typically sucks is that there's someone good picked in the later rounds.
i dont think having the top pick is necessarily a "perennial pro bowl player or BUST" like it is perceived. if you can get a guy who is going to start on your team for a decade, you did well. Stafford is no all-timer but Detroit did well with the pick
No doubt. If you get your franchise LT like Jake Long or Eric Fisher it may not be memorable but you can get HoF qualities out of those two.
Alex Smith is having a nice career after all
Ohhh the suffering
looks like 0-8
the worst thing about Russell being such a bust was the caliber of player available that year... Joe Thomas, Calvin, AP
Who they gonna pick?
we need a defensive anchor, leonard williams would be it.
all ours. would be good to get a socal kid as we move to LA
He's going to USC, but went to high school in florida. And if both of your teams want him, you need to finish first and pick him or finish second and hope the other team trades the first.
