I am hoping that we pick up Adrian McPherson. I may be in the minority, but I see him as a perfect Green project. The only thing is I would like to see him go in the 6th round, but since we do not have one then and I have read he is projected to go in the 5th, but I say take the chance and take him them if he is still there.

We should wait until next year for any new QB projects. I would say yes if we had fewer holes to fill. Our offensive line wasnt exactly the greatest last yr and we have added only 1 new player. We need to address this in round 4.

I think he has become overrated somehow. He has all the physical tools...but, I don't like him. I would rather take a OG or DT.

#1 Elton Brown Great run blocker and would move into the RG spot. I had him top 32 and I even had him top 20 in the draft a few months ago before Bass started rising hard

#2 Anttaj Hawthorne I know he got busted for smoking pot, but he was considered another first round talent. He has insane strength for a DT and is the DT we are looking for to stop the run game. I know we all want a 330+ fatty pluging the middle, but he might do a better job of stoping the run instead of a Bryant or Means. With Wisconsin DT not really doing much in the pros this would not be a bad place to pick him..

#3 Chris Kemoeatu Mean nasty OG that bites other players in piles. He also chop blocks and is VERY nasty player. someone that I could see get along with Ross on the right and Step on the left. Also if we draft either gaurd then Cement will be gone. :wave:

#4 Brandon Browner He would be insurance for the corners, but would be a All star FS in this league. 6'4 with ball hawking skills is what you look for. I would hate to draft a third corner, but he is worth it

#5 Antonio Perkins Another good Cb with great height and fast speed. We would never have to worry about CB again. What I like is his Kick retuner capabilities as he was #1 in the country if I am not mistaken

others to mention

Michael Boley
Stefan LeFors
Adrian McPherson
Darren Sproles

Also I noticed Fason has dropped hard. I would almost pick Fason over Sproles.

adrian mcpherson

Qb mcpherson

rb fason (just in case j.j is not big enough)

te adam bergan

but i really hope we get that qb he can be top notch in 2yrs and that ain't bad for a 4th round pick.

Actually he weighed in at 325 at the combine according to http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/combinebypos.php?genpos=DT&sortorder=wgt&order=DESC only anthony bryant at Alabama was bigger. I'd have no problem with Hawthorne, Sproles, Mathis, or a couple of the OL, Britts, Brown, Kemo, or even Browner. We are sitting pretty in round 4.

I'm hoping we trade LJ to the fins for their #4.

Two high 4th rounders and four players I really like at our need positions.

TE Joel Dressen - Best fit
DT Hawthorne & G Brown - Best Value
QB McPherson - Biggest potential

Best Pick

While my guess is that the team will target an OG (Brown or Kemo) in the 4th and a TE(Bergen) in the 5th, I'm hoping for Sproles. I think we still need a PR/KR and don't think the team will use Rolle in that role. Maybe hope for PR/KR in the 7th round.

I agree. I don't want to see the Cards taking any QBs this year.
