At a quick glance, I would like to see us take Malcolm Floyd from ND. He looks like a true #1 WR. I still think we'll be able to lock up some good lineman and LBs after the 1st round.

We will not draft a qb. Cassel is signed long term. I would love to draft Julio Jones, but I think we go defense.
He's signed long term but all the guaranteed money is all paid out at the end of this season, so they could get rid of him with no penalty.Quote:

I don't think we'd have a shot at getting Quinn or Heyward, if we're picking that high I'm screaming QB or bust.

I was waiting to see someone mention Christian Ponder. He and Jake Locker are considered the two most NFL ready QB's in college. Living in Florida I see a lot of FSU games and this guy is good. However, I don't see us going for a QB early in the draft. Maybe late in the draft or next year.
I think we may go after o-line, d-line, or linebacker. Our o-line is still weak and getting kind of old. Vrabel might not have much left and if we can get a good middle linebacker and have him learn under Vrabel I think it could work. The d-line thing will happen if Dorsey doesn't work out this year.
Eh, I'm bored... a few on my watch list:
1) Prince Amukamara, CB, Nebraska
2) Travis Lewis, OLB, Oklahoma
3) Von Miller, DE/OLB, Texas A&M
I'm going to wait to see how our team turns out this year before I worry about next years draft
I hope Cassel proves me wrong.I dont think he is the answer.Yes he went to the Pro bowl,and yes he had an o.k season.He choked at times when we needed him.It's not all his fualt at times.I seen him miss to many wide open recievers.He has no touch on his passes.He get alittle rattled under pressure.He would be a good backup.A lot better than Brodie but not the answer.He will have to do for now.We can't get a QB in the first round.We have to many voids to fill.With this ruff schedule we have in 2011 and we go 4-12.Then we go get are QB in Luck.I really hope Cassel makes fools out of us non believers.He has the drive to be a good QB just not sure if he has the talent.He will be are starter next season,so I will be rooting for him.He is a Kansas City Chief.
Yeah. His career QB Rating is only 3.7 points higher than that of John Elway and only two points better than Troy Aikman's.Quote:

Clearly, he should be a backup.:lol:
The man can play NFL QB. And, as we improve the offense around him, I have little doubt that he will continue to prove it.
