Around SBN: Is Norv Turner the Problem? Bar-right-arrows



Open Thread: 2008 NFL Draft, The St. Louis Rams are on the clock...

...UPDATE...

The FIRST ROUND IS COMPLETE!!!!! You gotta love the draft and the anticipation, there's nothing like it

What: 2008 NFL Draft
Where: Radio City Music Hall, New York
When: 3:00PM Est Time (Rounds 1 & 2)

Here we are, its FINALLY Draft Day!! I have no clue what todays events will bring. All I can say is I hope the Bucs inject speed and athleticism into this offense whether it be through the first, second, or third rounds. I've got my fingers crossed for a DJax or Jenkins Drafting, but to be honest, so long as we get a burner, i don't care if it comes in the form of a DJax, Donnie Avery (thanks PR), Devin Thomas, what have you. I'll be thoroughly disappointed if we don't get some electricity for the offense, because this draft allows for that beyond the 1st round... At any rate, hold on tight because we're in store for a loooong day!!! It could be three hours before the Bucs make that first selection!!

Potential Draft-Day Trades to look for:

The Bucs could look to trade for Eagles CB Lito Sheppard should the wrong draft picks fall to them with the 20th overall selection... Eagles fans are expecting WR Michael Clayton in return plus a draft pick

There's been discussions between the Dolphins and Bucs about a possible DE Jason Taylor swap for Draft Picks. The Fins are rumored to want a 2nd Round Draft Pick

The Lions are in need of a MLB, the Bucs could potentially send Barrett Ruud to Detroit for WR Roy Williams

Super Agent Drew Rosenhaus has recently sent out a plea via YouTube to have WR Chad Johnson traded on Draft Day...

The Saints are looking to trade up in the draft to get LSU's Glenn Dorsey and they've been in discussions trying to acquire TE Jeremy Shockey

ohhhhhh
the torture... You mean, you don't want to draft QB Matt Ryan? hah!!! At least you don't have to wait 2+ hours for your first pick... Come on ATL make us envious with your first day picks

I'm hoping
And in the interest of fairness, may the Bucs draft a talented wide receiver!

by Dave the Falconer on Apr 26, 2008 10:51 AM EDT to parent up   0 recs

you sure
you dont want us to draft another Safety or a Offensive Lineman or (sweet heavens) a QB? Gruden can hook that up for you

by JScott on Apr 26, 2008 10:59 AM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Congrats
to the Falcons and finally putting Mike Vick behind them....

All i know is this, before Matt Ryan was at BC, as a FSU fan, BC was nothing on our schedule... when he arrived, BC became a force...

i cant believe the
bounty the Jags gave up for Harvey, two #3'? WOW ....  they might as well give him a cut of the ownership of the franchise, sheesh

and the Pats get a 3rd rounder from the Saints to move back three slots... heh... stand strong Allen, Gruden, and War Room Brothren

by JScott on Apr 26, 2008 4:17 PM EDT   0 recs

I thougth that was bizarre
Way too much for a guy who wasn't a projected Top 10 pick...

by Dave the Falconer on Apr 26, 2008 4:24 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

what a job the
patriots did as well... they move back three slots and pick up a third round pick, unbelieveable

how sad are
you that we're not rocking SBN 2.0?

by JScott on Apr 26, 2008 4:28 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

CAROLINA
and a Runningback... hmm DeShaun Foster, DeAngelo Williams, now Jonathan Stewart.... I guess if you dont succeed, try, try again

Offensive line?
Thought they needed someone there, but what do I know?

by Dave the Falconer on Apr 26, 2008 4:45 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

absolutely
and they had their pick with Williams and Albert available, hmm

OH MY GOODNESS
WE ARE GUARENTEED WR DESEAN JACKSON OR CB MIKE JENKINS!!! THANK YOU FOOTBALL GODS!!!!! AWESOME

WAY TO GO JOE FLACCO!!!

by JScott on Apr 26, 2008 5:04 PM EDT   0 recs

time to see if
we screw it up... not a single Wide Receiver has been taken and we have our pick of Jenkins, Talib, Jackson, Thomas, Sweed, Kelly... wow

i might shoot myself (with a nerf gun) if they trade the pick

by JScott on Apr 26, 2008 5:16 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Carolina's picks look
MUCH better!! Will they have any picks left in the draft however??

by JScott on Apr 26, 2008 5:13 PM EDT   0 recs

Not a bad pick
I dunno about you, but I'd think you guys would want a receiver first?

by Dave the Falconer on Apr 26, 2008 5:22 PM EDT   0 recs

nah
we'd they'd rather take our their chances with 2nd tier WR's

by JScott on Apr 26, 2008 5:24 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Agreed
I'm glad they decided to go corner in the first round, and there are a ton of WRs still on the board, hopefully we end up with someone like Jordy Nelson... or even... well I won't jinx it with my hope...

by ghosthippo on Apr 26, 2008 6:01 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

LOL
thats why i didnt say anything until we were guarenteed Jenkins and Jackson and we passed, wow...

the Cowboys got increasingly better

alot of the wide receivers have dropped though thankfully
