I can not believe that Morris may fall to us but it appears to be a reasonable chance as the draft gets closer.

[Razeyfingers]

It was reasonable months ago :lol:. This happens every year in the NFL, yet people still get surprised.

I guess some of the superstitious think that if they want it too badly, it wont come true. Whatever you need to do to make it happen, Capt.

[Lumps]

Yep surprises happen.

Including passing him up even if he does fall to us.

Or maybe another Hurney trade, you know the ones at the last fuging minute.

All I hope is for Hurney to get solid players from more than just the first round.

Seems like it could happen, but I highly doubt it. browns, rams, and jags could very likely take him.

Right now I'd be happy if we took Kirkpatrick. Long, lengthy corner who can tackle. That's what we need, defenders who can tackle. And some people think he may become a safety in the nfl, heck we need help at safety also. If he doesn't pan out at cb, move him to fs. We still need to see what hogan could do for us.

Looking forward to some more stiffarms and blowbys this season, thanks Bucs

this happened a couple weeks ago, actually.

Really the only team that stands in our way between Claiborn and us are the Vikes or someone trading up.

If Bucs really signed Ronde Barber because they're getting Trent Richardson, then Claiborne is as good as ours.

You really think the Vikings would pass up Matt Kalil to get Claiborne? I don't.

They have a worse secondary than the Panthers. Vikes higher then the Browns then Bucs.

[rayzor]

bucs won't pass on claiborne because they have ronde signed for another year.

picking up eric wright makes it less likely that they draft claiborne, but still it doesn't rule it out.

Hmm....I didn't know that. based on that, I still wouldn't understand it.

Kalil is THE choice at number 3.

[jramsey4]

I might be in the minority here but I'm hoping if he is there we trade back like we did in 07 and got Beason and Kalil.

This has Robert Blanton written all over it as a potential later-round draft selection.
