2006 NFL Draft

Anyone want to discuss? What are your team's needs and what do you want them to do in the draft?

Bengals D

Unless we switch to a 3-4 (which isn't likely, since we just signed Sam Adams) we need to draft a CB. Tory James is great, but he's getting older and is in the last year of his contract. With safety Madieu Williams coming off the DL, bringing in Tye Hill from Clemson would be great; having him and Deltha O'Neal in at CB should produce more of the picks that were the hallmark of the Bengals D last season. After that, should be a TE, O-line and D-line.

It's kinda refreshing, for the first time I can remember (I was in the first grade when they last went to the Super Bowl) the Bengals don't have a top-ten draft pick.

Very curious to see what my Packers will do. Will they snag a new QB? My guess is no, even though Brett hasn't made a decision yet.

Better get some defense though.

Packers

Best bet for the packers in the first round is AJ Hawk. Doubt they're gonna get a new QB, they're probably gonna give Rodgers a shot.

Dallas needs a QB

Sure I could, but why.

You can't say his speed.. Look at the Draft weight that he'll list about 255-260 or so. He run's his 40-40 in 4:35's. But to me its in his wieght, hes lite. Don't really see anything more different from or of him.

I pick Pope becuz, hell look I'm at bragg - Pope. First Clue, and then I'm in the NC (SE) so I'll take someone I've seen a the Tube.

I would love the Pats to go with a LB in the first round, then WR or RB in the second...but with the Pats who knows...

Unless they move up in the first round, I would expect them to pick a linebacker or lineman in round 1. Tuna doesn't seem to value QBs much, although he did take Pennington when he was with the Jets.

No, they need a QB now. They need to trade for one. A good one. Now. I don't get college football here, so I don't know who is good at that level.

Parcells doesn't really impress me all that much, I could have coached the NYG team he had to the SB.

Same with that guy that coaches the Lakers now. You have Jordan and Pippin and then O'Neal and Bryant - you'd better win.

I'll say no... and I'm a hardcore Hokie. His character issues are the big reason, but I really don't think he's good enough at QB.

To me, his skills don't matter much. I've tracked him through college - suspension - college - expulsion, and I wouldn't want to hand over a team to him.

But some GM will pick him up on sheer athletic ability.
