If Cowher is the coach the pick will be Luck.

If Gruden is the coach then its a toss up between Luck and Locker (he likes the west coast and Locker is a perfect fit for that offense).

If someone else random is the coach then its Luck.

That is IF they don't like Jimmy Clausen but I don't see how you pass on either Luck or Locker when the only QBs we have are unproven and on a low salary.

I find the infatuation with Luck highly amusing. I see absolutely no way we are going to pick Luck in the top ten next year. We might take him with the top 5 pick in 2012 if Luck decides to stay in school one more year. He is playing well on a good team currently and has been able to overcome some issues with his footwork and release. He is also pretty young and has not performed at that level for long enough to be rated so highly for the draft next year.

Jake Locker is an interesting prospect for the NFL because of he is a threat to pick up some yards on the ground. He should go in the top 20 but might get taken earlier by a team desperate for a franchise QB.

Whatever pick we end up with we will go BPA and it won't be a QB. We will probably draft a defensive end or cornerback seeing as we are likely to pick tenth or thereabouts. We will add a veteran QB through Free Agency.

we will trade down and select an olineman. just watch

I don't think there is a lot of value in picking an O-lineman in the first round although I would not be surprised if we trade down in the unlikely event that we end up with a top 5 pick. Maybe they want to go after Derek Sherrod who I have heard has the potential to be a good LT.

I saw a mock draft with John Moffitt of Wisconsin going to us on another thread and I think he would be a good pick in mid-rounds. Now, I'm a Badger fan so I may be a little biased, but I think he has potential to be a pretty good guard. I would rather we go after him than someone like Gabe Carimi in the first round.

      Greg hardy arrested for assault.

      I met him at an OTA when he was rookie.  I liked him, and so did my small children.  I got a photo of him with my kids, and his nylon stretch shirt was ripped off his shoulder and down his side.  I remember thinking, "This was an OTA.  He must have been battling so hard (going full speed) that the OT grabbed him and ripped off his shirt."   Normally, there is a "rule" that you stop when you are not in full pads when the other player shows that he controlled you or is in position to--like pulling up and not hitting the RBs.  I got the feeling that he was going full throttle.  Just speculation, but it was consistent with what we would learn about him.

      Morgan, Mills, Keuchley, Beason--all within the first 25 years of the team's existence--we have been spoiled by great MLB play.

      Some people just want to get the attention of a celebrity and feel zero empathy for that player's feelings or personal space.  My dad was lifelong friends with some big names in football (Roman Gabriel, Dan Reeves) and baseball (Pete Rose and Tommy Helms of the Reds) and I learned very young that they are people doing a job and really want to be treated like everyone else.  So when I see a celebrity in public who is flying under the radar, I try not to bring attention to myself or them--I might wave if we make eye contact but that is about it.  Flashback In Washington DC (Georgetown) I was eating at a restaurant with my then fiance (she dumped me later--still hurts) and at the end of the dinner, I whispered to her, "Do not look back until we are getting up to leave, but do you know who has been sitting behind you for about 15 minutes?"  She said, "No.  Who?"  I stood to leave, so she turned around while picking up her purse, saw him, and turned back around to look at me with a shocked facial expression.  It was Billy Crystal.  I put my finger over my lips to keep her quiet, but she turned toward him and said, "You look Marvelous!! (one of his famous lines) and proceeded to tell him that her favorite movie is The Princess Bride, a film Crystal had a small part in as Miracle Max.  Grabbing her upper arms from behind, I looked at Crystal sympathetically and he cracked a faint grin--and I gently pulled her toward the exit.  She was mad at me for not telling her sooner and said that I embarrassed her by pulling her away.  I told her "You had already embarrassed yourself.  I was just doing some damage control."  I knew that she had exposed him, and how much he was valuing his anonymity until she sounded the trumpets.
