Default La Confora: Snyder, Cerrato, Zorn Meet the Press

Snyder: "There are players every year that are the consensus 'hot guy' with the media and throughout the league, but really what interests me more is the work of the scouts and coaches and Vinny's group that they put in throughout the year than just the hot guy."
HA!

The press conference is also in ESPN 980's audio vault for those that don't wish to read.

I'll save you 20 minutes...they don't tell you who they are drafting

Baghdad Bob ended up captured and he had a fairly easy captivity. We knew he didn't know anything...

They don't tell you anything of substance if I remember. But I bet nobody past the top-5 have a clear clue who they are drafting...

Yeah, I've read the transcript a couple times and they say basically nothing in it. They either have no clue or are working on contingencies with no backup plan if Sanchez is taken too high.

That's what I'm afraid of. They think they're getting Sanchez and have no idea what to do when he's off the board. They could possibly be thinking about what else they can give up in order to move up and get him. I have a feeling if we do trade up, it'll be for more then what the Broncos were asking for Cutler.

Get this...this Friday at 5 pm Doc Walker will interview Snyder, Vinny, and Zorn on the radio. So...23 hours before the start of the draft, the people making the selections have NOTHING BETTER TO DO than go onto a radio show owned by Snyder and basically say a bunch of nothing for probably 30 minutes. Complete and utter incompetence.

I am going to imagine they won't be taking callers, but if they do, I fully intend on asking that question.

The back up plan, if Sanchez is gone and the phone isn't ringing when the Skins are on the clock, is to refer to Vinny's BPA chart. Gawd help us, Vinny will probably say, "look, the top rated TE is still there! That's value!"

Sadly, I agree with this. I think if they don't get Sanchez, they'll panic and deal down for 40 cents on the dollar.

They'll take callers, but they'll be Larry Michael(and his staff) reading questions that Snyder wrote himself.

I don't think so. They said they've identified two major spots of need, so I think they take BPA with a slant to those two. They never actually said what those need areas are but it's hard to imagine they aren't OT and OLB.

Vinny: Is it too soon to take a fullback?
Snyder: Never too soon for that Vinny...never too soon....

Well Doc said he's going to really touch on the JC vs. Sanchez and Cutler thing, so I look forward to their answers to that.

Regardless, I'm very much with your sentiments here. It's like, don't you have more pressing concerns at that point? If nothing else, I would expect them to be in Nashville, at a hotel, getting rest.

As a matter of fact, franchise fullbacks are usually traded up for
