Last year, they drafted Claussen way too high with a second round pick, then took a flyer on Armanti Edwards in the 3rd round and again took a QB in the 6th round and QB is STILL their number one need!!! I realize they didn't draft Edwards to be a QB, but they drafted him in the 3RD ROUND to play a position he has never before played!! Furthermore, he couldn't even get on the field at arguably the weakest position on the team! Hurney is terrible, the scouting is terrible. The bad part is, according to Frank Garcia, the personnel department operates at about one-third the manpower and budget of typical NFL personnel departments. So, not only is Hurney terrible, but he also operates with one hand tied behind his back by Richardson. Not a pretty picture for fans, especially PSL holders.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-23099735488829235962011-01-25T22:54:43.410-05:002011-01-25T22:54:43.410-05:00Some said "Brokeback Mountain" starring ...Some said "Brokeback Mountain" starring --- Jimmy Clausen and Marty Hurney was good<br /><br />... something about Hurney telling Jimmy - " I cain't quit you"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-21503079125399992202011-01-25T17:22:31.776-05:002011-01-25T17:22:31.776-05:00I think the odds of success picking a DT at #1 is ...I think the odds of success picking a DT at #1 is better than a QB or RB. Mario Williams over Young and Bush comes to mind recently as the most effective use of that money long term. <br /><br />At the same time; we can recall Jason Peters coming out of Nebraska seemed like a smart 1st pick. Until steroid testing lead to injuries that took him out of the game and into the life of a hardcore addict.<br /><br />I personaly would prefer to use it on an offensive lineman as they are much easier to evaluate and pick. They cost a lot less even when picked higher. The good (not even great) offensive lineman last a long time in the NFL. All the "skill" positions would be improved across the board with better blocking next year. <br /><br />I have not looked to see if any are worth a #1 this year. I played o-line and am biased that way, regardless of standard logic.<br /><br />As far as trading the pick being difficult. Maybe the expected new rookie salary scale makes that easier than ever. Plus why trade down if you see a guy further down you want. Cut a deal with him pre-draft that's still better for him and he gets to say he's #1 even at #10 money.Sportsdonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-84701197901990295462011-01-25T17:11:57.098-05:002011-01-25T17:11:57.098-05:00Winter's Bone is slow in the beginning but the...Winter's Bone is slow in the beginning but the third act is something you'll never, ever forget. You can get it now on DVD. The Fighter is worth seeing simply due to Christian Bale's amazing performance. True Grit is good and is truer to the book with the Coen's directing. Social Network is written by Aaron Sorkin, who created West Wing. Its exceptional but 30 minutes to long. I have not seen the King's Speech but will probably do so.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06784991119549813138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-73537224653597472832011-01-25T16:11:36.415-05:002011-01-25T16:11:36.415-05:00The King's Speech was an awsome film.The King's Speech was an awsome film.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-52110930939024270732011-01-25T14:51:27.638-05:002011-01-25T14:51:27.638-05:00The film slate in general this year was weak, but ...The film slate in general this year was weak, but this is the most well-balanced group of Best Picture nominees in a very long time. All 10 of these films are worth seeing, and none qualify as overrated (though Black Swan is the most polarizing of the group). Definitely check out The King's Speech; unlike most royal period pieces, it is an utterly engaging film (my favorite of the year). Really, you can't go wrong catching up on any of the ones you missed.Bryan K.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-32753815616987819652011-01-25T14:16:49.949-05:002011-01-25T14:16:49.949-05:00Check out True Grit...it was much better than I ex...Check out True Grit...it was much better than I expected, great performance by the actress playing mattie...also The Social Network is the best movie i have seen this award season apart from The Black Swan bar none...The Social network is the way to go...Melissanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-3348562972813713692011-01-25T14:16:09.768-05:002011-01-25T14:16:09.768-05:00You act like it is easy to trade a no. 1 pick with...You act like it is easy to trade a no. 1 pick without anyone really worthy of the no. 1 pick. Name one team that would trade with us. Then I would like to hear the player worthy of trading up for. It isn't as easy as "trading the pick". First you have to find a team that wants it. Unfortunately we are stuck with the No. 1 pick and no clear no. 1 player in the draft. DT looks like the best value for the no. 1 pick at this point.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1757788746378060243.post-49431949033694254142011-01-25T14:00:16.383-05:002011-01-25T14:00:16.383-05:00Defensive tackle is a waste of a first-round pick....Defensive tackle is a waste of a first-round pick.
