The crowd is yelling "She said No" during the Steelers pick. OUCH.

I listened to the presser on the Washington pick. He was rated 12th on the Cards board (I assume the 120 board). NFC team called Whis and said they were going to take Washington 2 picks later.

We might have been able to stay at 58 and gotten Lee. We'll see.

Not now Dallas traded up and took him

Why would a team call another team to tell them who they were going to take? Smells like the Cardinals got offered a load of BS and bought it, basically panicked and gave up too much.

These FO's do share some info. When the Colts took Edge instead of Ricky Williams they said they received a couple of calls saying good pick.

I'm thinking another team called them to congratulate the shrewd move. And if what Whis said is true (which we all know it probably is) then we just jumped over the Niners for the same guy.

Sounds like a good move to me!!!!!!

Lee would have been gone.

ANOTHER sign that our guys did the right thing. Niners take Washington, Cowboys take Lee.

The way I read his post it sounded like he was saying a team called and said who they were going to pick before the choice was made not calling AFTER the choice was made. If thats the case...ok.

Here is the quote Zeno....

UPDATE: Coach Ken Whisenhunt said Washington was the 12th-rated player on the Cards’ board (one behind Williams) and was considered with the first round pick. GM Rod Graves said there wasn’t much debate on trading the third-round pick because it was “the right decision.” Whisenhunt said after the pick, one NFC team called to say it was going to take Washington “a couple of picks later.” Whiz didn’t specifically name the team.
San Fran - Minny - or Dallas. Those are the only options in this scenario. No matter which one it was..... I am happy he is on our team and not theirs.

Well no reason to get angry about it I guess, I just really thought that extra 3rd round pick was valuable. I hope Washington makes a difference on our defense, really soon, because our defense needs all the help they can get and I worry about seeing Paris Lennon starting.

I was on record not wanting to trade up so I understand frustration. I knew I wouldn't be alone on this and wanted to help people get happy as soon as possible. :)

In Whis I trust.

I think Dallas was the team that would have taken Washington..... If that is correct, then Lee would be there.
