Guest Kingpk Report post Posted March 16, 2003 Plus we don't know what other trades will go down before draft day. I say we wait until a week before the draft to do this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted March 16, 2003 I agree. Som many teams have so many holes that the draft isn't really as much a factor until you've gone through more Free Agency. Especially guys with picks in the second half of the round. If you have a top ten pick...it's easier to see who you'd take and why. With the 23rd pick at this point in time I'd either go after one of the DT or DE that are left...but those might not be holes come mid April. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Conspiracy_Victim 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2003 For whomever has the Texans (sorry I've forgotten) a couple quick notes from someone who's been reading up on them as he can. A) Kinda out there, but Orlando Pace looks like he wants out of St. Louis in the worst way And the Rams may be looking into getting Turley as a replacement. Texans are one of the few teams with cap space and plenty of picks. I doubt anything will happen (despite Carr getting beaten like the proverbial red headed stepchild), but it might get interesting as the draft gets closer and assuming this isn't a big smokescreen by the Rams or Pace. B) Should they keep their pick and looking at their off season losses, IMHO opinion the Texans may be looking more and more at Terrell Suggs. His pro day is the 26th I believe and that will tell us more, but Capers is a defense first kinda coach. Andre Johnson might fill the offensive playmaker need they have, but his less than glowing scouting reports (average hands, routes are questionable) might be a bit scary for a #3 pick. Still, those would be my 2 choices since Rogers is all but being fitted for a Lions jersey. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted March 16, 2003 No one will pay Pace what he's asking. He's asking to make more than star QBs make. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Conspiracy_Victim 0 Report post Posted March 16, 2003 Yeah that's why the Texans (or anyone else) won't make a move most likely. He's one of the best in the game and all, but $24 million just for the SIGNING BONUS? And his contract demands are about 7/$49 million. Give me a break. The day an OL gets that is the day the salary cap hit $150 million. Can you imagine if he gets that and something happens (like he blows out a knee) and has to retire? The team then has to either keep him on the roster the REST of the contract, or cut him and have the entire bonus taking up cap room the next year. That kind of thing would get a GM fired.

Guest Vern Gagne Report post Posted March 16, 2003 Let's take a poll When should we have the mock draft. -The First Saturday all teams are picked. -A week before the draft. I'd say a 1 to 2 weeks before the draft. We've waited this long what's another 4 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bps "The Truth" 21 Report post Posted March 16, 2003 A week or two before the draft would be my pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gert T 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2003 CV, thanks for the input, yeah I think the Texans could probably go about four different positions at the #3 pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest bravesfan Report post Posted April 7, 2003 April 19th will be the date. Look for an official thread either tonight, or early tomorrow morning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest CanadianChris Report post Posted April 7, 2003 April 19th will be the date. Look for an official thread either tonight, or early tomorrow morning. Easter weekend? Bad, bad timing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest bravesfan Report post Posted April 7, 2003 My apologies; I completely forgot about the date of Easter. I really did not want to do it on the weekend upcoming (the 12th-13th), so maybe it can be a compromise. Does the 14th through 18th sound okay? Everyone may just leave their picks during the week, and the rest can discuss it on Easter weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest the pinjockey Report post Posted April 10, 2003 OK if we are going to do it the whole week style I kind of want to get a read on something now If i were to package my three picks 1st round 30th pick 2nd round 29th pick (61 overall) 2nd round 30th pick (62 overall) Would anyone be willing to deal a top 5 or 10 pick for that deal?
