I like the pick. Unexpected, but I like it.

I hate our running game. They just made it exciting...

Not everybody. Plus a lot of the people that are mad are being hypocrites because over the years I have clearly seen them say draft BPA regardless of position. This kid fits that perfectly.

I would've picked Ayers. His measurables were almost as good as Miller's.

Since Hightower sucks it really wasn't such a bad pick.

no he doesn't... he's got fumble problems, was injured all last year and had less than 600 yards. how that's BPA at the top of the second round is beyond me.

I haven't seen it in the write ups -- but watching the hilights, I noted how naturally he catches the ball in the passing game.

depth at RB is important... STARTERS at LB in a 3-4 is MORE important, especially with good ones on the board like Ayers.

I would have traded down picked bowers before TB and picked up a 2nd next year or 3rd today.

I think people are disappointed. Not so much in Ryan Williams, but the fact that we have drafted 4 RB's in the last 5 years. Also for the fact that Whiz completely abandons the run.

We also have a glaring need at LB, OT, and QB. There were a lot of good players available in those positions of need and were probably also BPA.

If he sucks beanie and his 3.2 and no runs over 20 yards must be atrocious ;)

We've been trying to tell you for three years that Timmy was worthless. The pick today just confirmed it. A first round RB and a 2nd round RB and Patrick Peterson and no QB. We'll be the Titans of the NFC. 13-3 BABY!!!


:p

Also watching all the highlight films. I see some DE, and some DT catching Williams from behind. If we wanted a RB then we needed someone with some true breakaway speed.

Yeah that is what I noticed as well. Everyone catches this guy from behind and he doesn't play in an elite conference so he isn't facing NFL talent.

He also goes down to college arm tackles.

To be honest, I see a less strong Beanie Wells.

I still can't fathom that before the draft, the Cardinals promised this kid they would draft him in the 2nd no matter what.

That is why they ignored all that talent. There is already an article about it on the official site. They kept their promised...woo hoo.

He seriously better be the second coming because if not this is moronic.
