what happened to the BPA philosophy?

 

[speedy]

I miss BIG

I miss Denny Green....

 

[Pariah]

I hope they hedge their bets and take another LT on day-1.

 

[Gambit]

This is all the Browns' Fault!

Wait a minute...Cleveland Browns...Levi Brown...it's all a conspiracy

 

[az1965]

Well, we can all hope he is not another L. Davis...

 

[joeshmo]

I still dont like Brown as a prospect but I do feel better that Gandy will not be starting at OT now hopefully.

We so need to go D the next 2 rounds.

what happened to the BPA philosophy?

That only counts if the Cards take a fan favorite.

 

[20yroldcardfan]

dont post often...but i daresay we could be on our way to a very unsexy draft

 

[az1965]

They are talking about Brown being a reach pick based on need, has technique problems but these may be corrected.

 

[NDNACE]

I"m going to BOO this pick and hopefully it has the Dan Majerle effect.

 

[Assface]

That only counts if the Cards take a fan favorite.

 

[SuperSpck]

The game starts at the line!
With a great line a team can make do with a mediocre QB and a mediocre RB.
Arizona does not have a mediocre QB. They do not have a mediocre RB.
If Levi Brown is good or even good enough than the Cardinals will be better for it.

Be happy people! The line is never sexy but it is vital.

 

[The Edge]

I miss Denny Green....

Only on draft day

 

[Espo]

They are talking about Brown being a reach pick based on need, has technique problems but these may be corrected.

Nothing like getting a incomplete player at the number 5 pick in the draft. AP is going to come back to haunt us.

 

[Cbus cardsfan]

why would us Cards fans expect anything but total ineptiude from the front office? Rod Graves ahs no feel for personnel or running a draft. You could have gotten something, anything and moved back.

Strengths: Possesses good height, decent bulk and the frame to get bigger. Shows good fluidity and top-end speed. He consistently gets a quick break on the ball and diagnoses the run very quickly. He shows good toughness and strength in run support, especially for his size. He fills hard and shows adequate power at the point of attack. Sideline-to-sideline playmaker versus the run. He displays better-than-average range in zone coverage and he also can match up one-on-one versus slot receivers in the NFL. He is an instinctive playmaker with adequate-to-good ball skills. He has a good mental capacity and coaches rave about his ability to pick things up quickly. He is a good leader in the secondary and does a great job of getting everyone in position. He has tremendous experience as a four-year starter at the highest collegiate level. He also has been extremely versatile in LSU's secondary throughout his career.

Weaknesses: Lacks ideal bulk. Until he gets bigger he will not be able to match up as easily in-the-box at the NFL level as he has in college. He will misjudge the ball in the air on occasion and he still can improve his recognition skills when playing in deep-middle zone coverage.

Overall: Landry played in all 14 games (10 starts) as a true freshman in 2003 and recorded 80 total tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss, three sacks, two interceptions, four pass breakups, and one blocked kick. He was knocked out of the Arkansas game (11/28) with a concussion. In 2004, Landry started all 12 games finishing the season with 92 total tackles, five tackles for loss, three sacks, four interceptions, six pass breakups, and one forced fumble. He once again started every game (13) in 2005 registering 69 total tackles, four tackles for loss, one sack, three interceptions, and eight pass breakups. In 2006 he started all 13 games, earning first team All-American and first team All-SEC honors (both media and coaches), after collecting 74 tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss, one sack, one forced fumble, one blocked kick, and three interceptions. Over the past four seasons, Landry has seen time at free safety, strong safety, and cornerback. Landry is as close to the complete package as it gets for a safety prospect coming from the collegiate ranks. He possesses the size, speed, athletic ability, instincts and toughness to step in as an immediate starter in the NFL; he can hold up in the box, in deep-middle zone coverage and one-on-one versus some bigger slot receivers. Landry is the premier safety prospect in the 2007 class and he should come off the board in the top-10 picks of the draft

Holy mother of GOD! Graves just does not get it, and apparently neither does Whiz and Grimm. Don't address our biggest weakness in free agency, let our only LT go, then REACH for a LT in the draft! Brilliant! BRILLIANT! As it's been pointed out before, it's Leonard over Tomlinson all over again. Only Leonard was rated as a top 5 pick and Brown isn't even #&%$ing close!

I hate you Graves.
