Official 2008 NFL Draft Thread

[Assface]

Wow, Titans take Chris Johnson in the first. I'm really surprised by that.

 

[Shogun]

I called it!

 

[Redsz]

Ugh, there goes another RB. We could be in trouble here folks.

 

[WildBB]

Rice, Charles, or Johnson in round 2. I would've liked to take a chance and traded fro Mendy. BUt not at too prohibitive a price.

I think they would take Charles or Johnson. They want some speed. Johnson is risky there. If Mendenhall fell that much so should he, easily. There might be even better value in the 3rd.

 

[Shane]

Bummer. C. Johnson gone.

I don't really like Rice.

Do you like Charles?

 

[ItsInTheCards]

Chris Henry, LenDale, now Johnson?

what are the titans doing? they need receivers

 

[FrustratedFan04]

I'm hoping that either Jaamal Charles, Kevin Smith or Steve Slaton are there at #2. Charles is the most difficult to figure. If there's a hole, he's gone. Can he take a pounding though? Smith might make the better pro.

Guys, it's not "Trouble" if we can't find the heir apparent to Edge in this draft. Edge is still a better RB than we've had since... Otis Anderson? For a long damn time.

 

[WildBB]

I called it!

Wow, here comes the RB run!

 

[Cbus cardsfan]

Cards are going to have to trade up if the want Charles. No way he gets by Chi and Det in round 2.

 

[WildBB]

Wow, Titans take Chris Johnson in the first. I'm really surprised by that.

To say the least!

 

[bg7brd]

We don't necessarily need a RB in the 2nd. We are in a position to pick up a great talent thats falling through the cracks...just like the steelers.

 

[Pariah]

Do you like Charles?

Eh. I like him okay. I think there will be better players waiting for us at 50.

...and I actually think Rice will probably be gone. I don't think he gets past Detroit, if he even makes it that far.

 

[WildBB]

Ugh, there goes another RB. We could be in trouble here folks.

Nah, it's too deep. It means that other players rise now.

 

[Cbus cardsfan]

We didn't just have a Steve Slaton mention did we

 

[Brewster10]

Most drafted RBs can be instant impact.. therefore we have no need to take one this yr.. in 09 we could get one and plug him in..

Edge is fine for another season.. im not thrilled with taking a smaller back like Charles or Rice..

Kevin Smith is slow and underwhelming..

And if we use a 2nd rounder on a RB this yr.. we'll end up shying away from one next yr, when we really need to draft a top RB

just like Harry.....Kevin Smith

I think i saw Henry is with the Texans now.

 

[Shogun]

Honestly, if Chris Johnson is risky then I have no idea what you could Charles then. He gets by on speed alone which is an appealing attribute, but I don't want a track star playing RB.

I can see the fascination for Charles, but I'm not sold on it.

 

[WildBB]

Eh. I like him okay. I think there will be better players waiting for us at 50.

...and I actually think Rice will probably be gone. I don't think he gets past Detroit, if he even makes it that far.

Knowing them thay'll take the same exact knd of runner James is, in Smith. Too early at 50. I know they'll have a higher rated player there. But they'll pannick and take him.

 

[Redsz]

That's why we need to take Matt Forte.

 

[Cbus cardsfan]

I think i saw Henry is with the Texans now.

either that or Lendale White ate him

 

[Pariah]

That's why we need to take Matt Forte.

...in the third.

 

[WildBB]

That's why we need to take Matt Forte.

He has some upside.

 

[ItsInTheCards]

I think i saw Henry is with the Texans now.

he was tennessee's 2nd rounder last year
