And with main events like that, it's a mystery why Nitro was constantly beating RAW in 97. There was a teased Flair/Piper match for the main event but just ended up being another n.W.o. beatdown.

Yes J.J. Stokes will be cut unless they can find a sucker to trade him to. Streets will be back for this year since he was a restricted free agent and the tendered him an offer but he won't be beyond this year as he has made it known he doesn't want to play in San Francisco.

Good another wideout. Kinda surprised they haven't tried to drafted a corner and doubt you'll get anyone of use in the 7th but maybe they think Rumph will improve.

I honestly have no idea, I'm still trying to figure that one out myself. I thought they might have either went for another defensive player or possibly a punter. Well I know they've said that Erickson uses a lot of two tight end sets so maybe they will have four on the roster or just competition but jeez I'd just sign one as an undrafted free agent but oh well. At least they did take a wideout today and Lloyd was a pretty good value pick.

http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/sfl-hyd...Dsports%2Dfront HYDE: Agent used some tricks to make McGahee a first-rounder Published April 27, 2003 The big lie began whenever Drew Rosenhaus answered one of his four cell phones these past two months, selling Willis McGahee to reporters as some medical miracle, telling NFL teams which rival worked him out last and guaranteeing everyone his client was a set-in-stone No. 1 draft pick, something the agent didn't believe himself. Even at the road's end Saturday, everyone was played for a stooge. Rosenhaus sat in his waterside home beside McGahee, just seconds from going live on ESPN as they still sweated where the draft would land them. Suddenly, McGahee's cell phone rang. The running back's face twisted upon seeing the incoming number. "Yeah, it's me," Rosenhaus mumbled into his phone, looking straight ahead into the TV camera with a pasted-on smile. "Pretend I'm an NFL team calling you. Look happy." McGahee kept the phone to his ear. "Maybe we can get some team that's watching to think we're talking to other teams," Rosenhaus said as ESPN displayed them on the screen. It was all so staged you didn't know whether to scoff or laugh, hiss or applaud, call Rosenhaus a slimeball or a super agent. And this is how it was since February. It's how he manipulated the McGahee market to the point that when Buffalo made McGahee a first-round millionaire and the story of the draft, there were actually two stories. First, there was the story everyone knew, the one that began with the University of Miami star blowing out his knee in the national championship game against Ohio State. Who didn't feel for him? And pity his lost draft status from top-three pick to projected fourth-rounder? And who wasn't impressed by his hard work after surgery or enjoy his cry for joy after Buffalo took him? "Go ahead, let it out," his mother said, wiping a tear as it rolled down his cheek. "Oh, man, oh, man," he said as the tears fell. Then there was the story no one saw. The story of the big lie. It was the one where he created an image of desire out of thin air. He began by working the media like putty, playing off a writer's or camera's natural willingness to trade access for a feel-good story. "Everybody bought into this idea he was making a miraculous recovery," Rosenhaus said after the draft. "The media made it easy -- made it so easy -- by repeating what I was saying about him being a first-round pick. Remember, I guaranteed in February he'd be the first running back taken [he was]." How much of that was just hopeful hot air? "A lot of it," he said. Oh, there were serious doubts where it mattered. Let's note that. At the Indianapolis combine, for example, a few team doctors huddled together in a rare moment of note-comparing. "Why's all this being written about him walking without a limp and being way ahead of schedule?" one asked. "His knee looks like you'd expect -- a train wreck," another said. Still, the headlines sparked talk. And the talk created a fans' debate. And that environment allowed teams to consider McGahee not as a risk but a reward. And Rosenhaus kept fanning every exaggerated angle. One example: It was true New England coach Bill Belichick came to Miami and personally worked out McGahee, as Rosenhaus phoned in and everyone reported from New England to, well, the Sun-Sentinel ("McGahee Fit Enough For Tryout With Pats" read the April 3 headline). "What I didn't tell everyone was Belichick was down to work out six Miami players and Willis was just one of them," Rosenhaus said. "So the perception was Belichick was here just for McGahee. See how it worked?" He did it again when New England and Washington had their trainer examine McGahee. And he called ESPN, which featured McGahee's recovery before the draft -- "A miraculous recovery," Chris Berman called it Saturday. His physical therapist, Ed Garabedian, watched and said, "The knee's ahead of schedule. But he's got a lot of work ahead of him. It's a long-term deal, not short-term." Meanwhile, Rosenhaus watched the ESPN debate with glee. "This is great, believe me," he said to McGahee's silent mother. "The fact they're talking about him and we're at the 19th pick is terrific. Someone's going to grab him." He then coached McGahee on what to say on ESPN to encourage a team to pick him: "Say everything's going great, that whatever team picks you is going to get their money out of you." Then he pulled the phone trick, calling McGahee just before going on the air. After which, his lieutenant and brother, Jason, said, "That probably got a couple teams nervous." "May have," Drew said. Did any of this sway Buffalo into grabbing McGahee with the 23rd pick, a position not even mentioned weeks ago? Buffalo never checked McGahee's knee beyond the two NFL-scheduled dates. Never had a personal workout. Never called his doctor, his physical therapist or Rosenhaus. Maybe it was playing a silent game of its own. Or maybe in a stage full of stooges, it just became the final one. "Maybe they saw Belichick's interest and grabbed Willis," Rosenhaus said. Dave Hyde can be reached at [email protected].

Its more idiotic with Henson because he isn't going to play football. A total waste of a pick. Yeah, I know. Blowing a late-round pick on someone who isn't even gonna play football is rather stupid. I still wanna know why the Texans drafted Dave Ragone? Was it for QB depth? I don't know maybe trade him in a couple of years like back in the day when the Packers had Mark Brunell.

Speaking of wastes since your here AgentBond any clue why the 49ers took a tight end? They have Johnson and Swift and the signed Weaver.

Its more idiotic with Henson because he isn't going to play football. A total waste of a pick.

Texans draft Drew Henson...um why???

October 1, 1978 US: Kiss You All Over by Exile UK: Summer Nights by John Travolta and Olivia Newton John Damnit I hate Greese!

49ers take Andrew Williams, DE, Miami...works for me and they need someone on the other side opposite Andre Carter. Just hope the finally draft a wideout tommorrow. That's enough for me...ugh 8 hours.

Wow Houston just took Ragone...interesting with them having Carr.

He's a fullback and a pretty good one at that.

Fun fact...I knew a girl who dated Teyo Johnson...and his teammate Kerry Carter...at the sametime.

There goes Kelley...wow great draft by the...Bengals?

Nope...I am interested to see when Seneca Wallace....actually if the 49ers did feel they HAD to draft a qb this year I wouldn't mind taking a chance on Wallace. Damnit Raiders took Teyo Johnson...always liked him at Stanford.

Hey already made two of them so why not go for the trifecta.

FUCK...they picked another tackle....wait make that defensive tackle. That is definently a place they need depth and Bryant Young isn't getting any younger but...oh well.

Don't you dare!!!!!! Take Simms, you need to start grooming a new QB As a 49ers fan, I wouldn't mind seeing them groom a new QB, but it had better NOT be Chris Simms. Garcia is around for at least another three years and no one is gonna groom a quarterback for three years and have him just sit on the bench and eat cap room. They can worry about quarterback in future drafts.

Wow they showed two picks in a row...how about that?

He is 33. It is time to start grooming a new guy for two three years down the road 33? Bah that's nothing...he's around for at least another three years.
