I'm really torn about how I want this draft to go down. I don't know what to hope for.

I'm thinking LaRon Landry/Justin Blaylock/Charles Johnson

ESPN says Oak is taking Russell #1

Please please please let this be true. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/draft0...ory?id=2851912

Getting Darrell Jackson for the Niner's 3rd 4th round pick would be a steal and allow them to pass on a WR like Sidney Rice in the 2nd and draft somebody like C Ryan Kalil or CB Chris Houston

I don't understand why Seattle would make that trade. A fourth round pick sounds like a ripoff.

anyone else see kiper's final mock? he has david harris going #12 overall to the bills after sf takes willis. i haven't seen harris projected anywhere near #12.

I saw that flash by quickly as I was doing my working. I thought it might have been a second round mock showing.

So yeah, what the hell? He was a mid second round pick and out of nowhere, Kiper launches him into #12 overall.

Maybe I should have used Todd McShay for my avatar.

They don't want to pay him and they want something in return. I'm a 9er fan. I love the trade but he does have a history of injury problems.

This is what ESPN says:

However, Jackson and Seahawks management reportedly have been at odds following negotiation of the six-year, $25 million contract extension Jackson signed in March 2004, his decision to skip voluntary workouts in 2005, and the manner in which the team handled his knee injury last season.

Also they have Branch, Burleson (retarded contract), and Hackett, he is definitely more expendable.

Hadn't seen that news, god I hope that goes through. I think Seattle will look pretty stupid giving up a second (or was it a first?) for Branch and then giving away Jackson for a 4th, but as a 49ers fan I'll support it [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

LOL to all the Eagles fans who said their team wouldn't be wasting a pick on a QB this year, much less a 2nd rounder.

Huh? · #**589** 04-30-2007, 08:21 PM

I'm shocked no one even signed that Walter Thomas dude as a simple undrafted free agent rookie

Well, to be fair, I said that they shouldn't, not necessarily that they wouldn't. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

I think it was a huge mistake, and unless Kolb leads the Eagles to multiple Super Bowls, I'll likely be bitter about it for the rest of my life.
