Getting smart or getting older?

[Hr fan]

I know this is early, but what position will the fo think is needed at the 1st round level? Virtually all early 2008 drafts have a D player, almost all a DE. Will the fo finally realize the need, or what position do you see them going for?

wr or de...na well draft another corner probably

if Rogers isn't progressing well, it wouldn't surprise me to see this...especially if Springs gets his walking papers.

I'll post my answer at the end of March '08, after cuts and free agency.

The nice thing is we have all three first day picks, so we don't have to focus purely on one pick. What a concept!

[smoak]

See to me you take the best available and I don't know the middle of the draft well enough to predict. The good (bad) news is that you can almost name any position and we could use a first rounder there.

My guess is o-line if a great OT drops, but most likely DE.

[GolfFreak]

Certainly depends on FA and the rest of THIS season, but if you had to pick now I'd say DE, OLine or corner.

I would like to see us go after Chris Long and Xavier Adibi, maybe we could luck out and grab Lawrence Jackson in the second round.

Unless we're players for someone like Samuel or DeAngelo Hall, I think we're going CB with Rogers' injury and Springs inevitable exit. Personally, I would rather give up a 3rd(and maybe a player) for Hall and go DL in round 1.

A 3rd for Hall, you really think that will do it? I just cant fathom another DB in the first round, its like running in circles, I argued for a reciever last year in Calvin Johnson, but if we go anything other than a DE in the first round Im going to pull my hair out

I think they want to dump Hall just to send a message that Petrino is in charge. A 3rd might get it done, I might offer them our 2nd also and see if they would throw in Crumpler also(who's also on his way out apparently). Run a 2 TE set with Cooley as more of an Hback and Crumpler.

If we could pull a deal like that I would be hesitant to do it. Would we give Hall an extension if we acquired him?

im sorry, i might be missing something here. But what have you heard that says hall is on the outs in Atlanta. He had that bad game with the penalties but he paid for it, and he is a big time player, and you can't just get rid of that, can you?

A 3rd would be fine with me, but i think ATL may have better suiters for his services. I guess it depends on the player we throw them. Washington and draft someone? who do you think we would send?

id be good with a 2nd and 3rd for hall, but they got throw us like a 4th and a 5th. I never like Crumpler (i don't know why, he is pretty productive, but he never did anythin for me), and i doubt they would depart with a 3rd.

Hes actually had quite a few incidents this year and is definately on the outs with Petrino, not to mention he said he would like to be traded, he doesnt want to be in Atlanta anymore.

Thanks for saving me the time L703, and Crumpler is also on the way out in Atlanta. I would make sure his knees aren't going to be a long term prob. I believe I mentioned earlier this year that the offense looked better in the two TE set. Crumpler and Cooley would cause a ton of match up probs while improving the blocking. And for those 2 TE, 1 FB, 1 RB, 1 WR sets: put Cooley, Portis, Crumpler, Moss and Sellers on the field together.
