BeeR Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 zzzzzzzzzzz Rams good pick w/WR Gilyard to start. No speed and has to prove he's not a thug (jury is out) but can make the plays and at min contribute on special teams. Vikes great pick in Griffen. Boom/bust but at this point isn't that pretty much the goal anyway? Geez- Campbell still out there right? Hey it's a rainy Sat morning, wtph else am I gonna do - vacuum?

Big John Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 L White has just been traded to Seattle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeR Posted April 24, 2010 Author Share Posted April 24, 2010 (edited) Wow - what a smart move by Carroll. Yeah maybe White won't do much but from what I gather he gave up essentially nothing and Lord knows they need RB help. Maybe splitting him and Jones in a "thunder/lightning" way w/Forsett mixed in some might at least be a decent backfield combo-? OK OAK is up and Campbell just sittin there. Honestly they are nuts not to take him now IMO. Need the help and little to lose, much to gain. Edited April 24, 2010 by BeeR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need the help and little to lose, much to gain. i'd think it would be a 3 way with forsett getting 12-15 carries and the other two guys splitting the rest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medal of Honor Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Forsett will be a 3rd down back almost exclusively. The other two guys will split carries. But I wouldn't be shocked if Julius gets traded before the season. Seriously though, moving back 7 picks for Lendale White? Almost free. Yeah, we are all hard on him from a fantasy perspective, but he has a real opportunity to help this football team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeR Posted April 24, 2010 Author Share Posted April 24, 2010 And OAK drafts Campbell after all. I wouldn't call their draft great but likely their best a LONG time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 If lynch gets traded to seatte. I will be a happy man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medal of Honor Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 If lynch gets traded to seatte. I will be a happy man That was my first guess yesterday. I really thought they'd try to make a deal for him. I think the LenDale thing kind of negates that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medal of Honor Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 (edited) Seahawks picking Walter Thurmond is my first letdown of the draft. 5'10" - have the Seahawks EVER drafted a DB that can hit 6'? His highlight reel doesn't seem that impressive, and I really felt like DE was our biggest need at this point. But he's a Pac-10 player, and I have to believe PC knows something about him that I don't. Edited April 24, 2010 by Medal of Honor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medal of Honor Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 LOL at Shefty. Adam_Schefter: Think this tweeter is on to something RT @jamestheaussie: Campbell and Ford? Oakland lied to Al Davis and told him the draft started today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Na, LenDale is really more of Jerome bettis type. Forsett, everyone knows he's not good enough to the RB1 (but then again Jones was the starter there for a while). I still see them trying to get Lynch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeR Posted April 24, 2010 Author Share Posted April 24, 2010 Trading up for McKnight? don't see the need. You don't see the need for more explosiveness/receiving out of the backfield? ??? Nobody is getting Lynch for a 4th-7th rounder FYI. Maybe a trade for a pick next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a trade for a pick next year. We already have Washington and LT. I just didn't see the need to trade up, but whatever. I am happy with the Jets draft so far.

Nobody is getting Lynch for a 4th-7th rounder FYI. Maybe a trade for a pick next year. I disagree. It is VERY possible Lynch goes for a 4th-7th. That's a team that needs to rebuild EVERYWHERE and now has a surplus at RB with three great ones.

Medal of Honor Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Here's hoping that Ricky Sapp falls to the Seahawks at 29. I would say "that's all we need". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinity Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Washington was never a crucial part of the offense. Some "Seminole" offense and kick returns. Plus McKnight is a player, and LT won't last forever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Medal of Honor Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Couldn't be happier that the Seahawks got Lendale and Washington. It makes the Lynch talks probably all but dead at this point, but also means we can get rid of Julius. Thank God. The Seahawks filled every need for their team by the 5th round. Nice work.

bushwacked Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 Washington was never a crucial part of the offense. ~900 combined yards and 47 receptions in 2008 isn't insignificant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Posted April 24, 2010 Share Posted April 24, 2010 ~900 combined yards and 47 receptions in 2008 isn't insignificant. 50 yards a game basically, could be replaced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
