i heard a rumor GB trade jevon walker, 5th overall and another pick to trade up to # 2... thats going around on some sports boards right now... who knows

# 2 Saints Pick up Reggie Bush...

The saints are going to be a fun team to play with in Madden even more now... Drew Brees, Reggie Bush... mmm

My Lions just screwed me over. For over a year I said they would get Leinart, then they have their chance and they pick up Ernie Sims.. f*ck that. Mike Martz + Lienart = Pro Bowl Career. With the received corps we have he would of be fine, but instead we screwed the draft over.

The Lions have 5 QBs on their roster, they don't need another one. They need to drop one or two of the QBs. I think Harrington will be the first to go.

They only have 2 Qbs now. 2 or 3 Failed Qbs... McCown and Kitna and that kid they took in the 3rd round 2 years ago

Ernie Simms is pretty nasty though...

Cowboys pick some chump from OSU. Ugh.

And why is everyone so high on Cutler? He won 11 games in 4 years. :huh:

For the exact opposite they are down on Leinart. Cutler has a great arm and other measurables. For some reason, alot of people think that just because he propelled Vandy to a 5-6 record, he is a great leader.

Yeah, I know how they think and it confuses me. :laugh:

You can have the best arm in the world, but if you can't win ball games, you still suck. Did you see the highlights they were playing on Cutler? It was the same out pattern against Florida over and over...I think they showed it like 12 times or so.

I remember when Jeff George was taken #1 overall. being from Illinois, I saw that and I just couldn't believe it. Great arm, but couldn't lead Illinois to anything but a rose bowl humiliation.

He and Leinart and Young all played in very good conferences....the difference is...the prior two knew what it takes to win.

Well BOOG, just because his team went 5-6 in arguably the toughest conference in the nation, doesn't mean he doesn't have what it takes to be good. A good example of this is the #1 pick this season, Mario Williams, who "led" NC State to a 6-5 record in the ACC, which is "easier" than the SEC.

Vanderbilt had a horrendous tmea and from what I saw last season (saw 2-3 of their games) Cutler was the reason Vandy was in the games they won/lost. The school has used him as leverage to recruit some good players.

He won 11 games in 4 years...since he won 5 last year, that leaves 6 over 3. 2-9 the year before. 2-10 the year before that....to another 2 win season before that. To be a top eschelon QB, you gotta win some games. Yes, he played in a tough conference, but you play Kentucky, Navy, Chattanooga, et al that aren't high powered teams, you need to find a way to win those games.

Sorry, but to me Cutler is a huge reach.

I was suprised that Lendale White wasnt picked up earlier. I like the Titans situation, hopefully Young and White can develop and play good. Youngs gotta work on his release/stance - He will get chewed up if he throws the way he did in college. This years draft was crazy, and arguably the best wideout goes to the Steelers...

The draft has just ended as I type this. 255 picks have come and gone and one name is not called. Yes, Marcus Vick's name was not called. I wonder who will pick him up as a free agent.

:laugh:

No one wants a criminal to be their QB. Can you imagine what kind of "leader" he would be.

I just heard about it on the local news and I'm very happy that he didn't get drafted.

btw, Mr. Irrelevant is Kevin McMahan WR from Maine.

    • Browser vendors pen open letter to Microsoft saying "enough is enough" by Usama Jawad We have seen Microsoft resort to questionable tactics in the past to get more customers to use Edge, such as "bribing" people to use Edge, testing new behavior so that Edge loads automatically on startup every time, and pressuring OEMs to exclusively bundle Edge in Windows PCs. However, the company often receives pushback not only from customers but also from the Browser Choice Alliance (BCA). Now, the collective has penned an open letter to the Redmond tech firm to highlight its dissatisfaction with its practices. For those unaware, BCA is a coalition that touts several browser vendors as its members, including Google Chrome, Midori, Opera, Vivaldi, BrowserWorks, and Wavebox. Its latest open letter to Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella emphasizes that "enough is enough" and that user choice on Windows should be respected. It claimed that the company is abusing its dominant position in the PC space to push customers to its first-party browser, even if they don't want to use it. To do this, it resorts to shady tactics, some of which we highlighted at the start of this piece. It says that Microsoft is making it very difficult for users to set their preferred browser across all touchpoints. This is problematic as PCs are becoming even more prevalent in the AI era, so user choice is being restricted across even more devices, further frustrating users (and competing browser vendors). As such, BCA has urged Microsoft to take the following actions to level the playing field: Allow browser suppliers to compete for preinstallation and default deals with Windows PC manufacturers End dark patterns targeted at users seeking to download and effectively use other browsers (including as system-level default) Bring back the ability for users to make switching default browsers simple and transparent with a “single click” change for all relevant file types and apps (including PDFs) Open all web links in the users’ selected system-level browser of choice Eliminate manipulative Microsoft-exclusive banners pushing Edge in Windows, including when users are searching for other browsers Stop using operating system updates to push users back to Edge Remove the restrictive configurations of existing S mode devices that block the usage of third-party browsers. It believes that all browsers should compete on merit, as this will drive innovation and healthy competition. Despite its strong wording and publication of the letter openly, it's unclear if Microsoft will pay any heed to the BCA and if this will result in any tangible downstream benefits. We'll likely find out in due time.
