Tony G to the Falcons; Pettigrew could drop

[joeshmo]

I hope either Philly drafts him or the Bills draft him. That assures at least one good RB or pass rusher drops to us.

If Moreno is there @21 I think Philly takes him without even thinking about it. Moreno is a great pass catching RB and is exactly what Reid loves in a RB.

Bills probably take Pettigrew @ 28 and thats about as far as I see him falling IMO.

What I dont like is the Atlanta now not having to take a TE just may very well take one of the pass rusher or LB prospects that we wanted.

2 days away and we will know for sure.

And guess who Atlanta now takes at #24? I betchya it's either Matthews (if he's still there) or English. They need a LB with Brooking gone.

This is a deal the Cards could have made...a second rounder next year? Wow. Gonzalez is better than anyone we have on the roster and still would be next year too. I bet he has 900+ yds receiving this year and around 10 TDs.

Sorry to say...but this could also mean that Baltimore keeps its #26 pick, because they reportedly love Pettigrew.

BTW...look for Todd Heap to be released after the draft if the Raverns add a TE they like.

Stupid... This is akin to the Paul Gasol trade to the Lakers making the teams in the league say, "That is it!!!???"

Cards should've made this move!!!! ARRRGGGGG!@

I will vomit if this team takes a tight end in day one.

Cards should not have made this move.

1. We are talking about a 33 year old TE making 5 mill per season the next 3 years. I dont care if your the most chiseled athlete in the world, at that age in a contact sport that is a risky proposition.
2. We are talking about a 33 year old TE that we dont have cap space for and even if we cut Edge we would still only have 1.2 mill in cap space left.

Logistically it just wasnt possible. We need to get out of Madden turn off cap space rule mode.

Yup. 33 year old for a 2ND ROUND TALENT? No freaking way!
