NFL draft

I know not many people will be interested but the draft is on Thursday and well it's a big thing in the US.

I rekon the Rams need someone like Bradford. Steven Jackson is too good to be left alone on a team that won one game last year. Rams could be good in a few years if Bradford comes through.

Waiting to see where Tebow will be drafted, I assume he won't get a start anywhere so will be interesting to see where he ends up.

He'll go second round i think. Some teams might try and make him switch positions.

I wonder if the Steelers will try and take a QB with Big Ben being suspended for 6 games. With their backups I can't see them winning anything during that time.

I thought they were shipping Big Ben off to Oakland? They need a WR from somewhere to replace Holmes

Thanks for the reminder

Been looking forward to the Draft since the end of season, Eagles fan, think we have about 4 positions to fill.

Pretty sure they are keeping him unless they have someone else lined up.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have stepped up their efforts to trade two-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, but the Oakland Raiders might be the only real option.

The Steelers were rebuffed by the St. Louis Rams over the weekend, but a league source said Wednesday that they also have contacted the Raiders, who need a veteran quarterback and tried to land Donovan McNabb before the Philadelphia Eagles traded him to the Washington Redskins earlier this month.

Yep but unless someone will take him then they are stuck with him.

Would love to get Tebow at the Vikings but i cant see us pulling it off.

Bradford will be #1 for sure. Su will be needed by the Lions i think also.

As an Oakland fan & given their track record of picking Heisman winners in the 1st round over the years I can't help but think they will pick Tebow & trade the useless QB they picked as the top pick 3 or 4 years ago now.

You will not trade Russell. Who would want him? It takes 2 to trade. Al Davis will have to bite the bullet and just cut him.

Yeah i cant see anyone taking JaMarcus. The guy is an idiot; and if a QB can let his weight go up to 20st then it says something about his mentality.

Well you got everything right

Tebow has gone to the Broncos

Peg · 23 Apr 2010 at 09:46

Surprised to see Tebow drafted before Clausen and McCoy. The guy has got to learn to throw the ball and change his throwing action to be viable in the NFL. His workouts did not set the world alight.

I'm guessing he's more marketable though so I'm sure the Broncos will be getting something out of it.

They spent a first, second, third, and fourth round pick on him and he is a project and nowhere near a starter in the NFL. Josh McDaniel is doing a good job of ruining the Broncos. He is getting rid of the Broncos best players and replacing them with rookies and projects. The Broncos will be looking for a new head coach before the 2011 season.

SMN · 23 Apr 2010 at 12:17

McDaniels is an idiot; started well but he has too big an ego to coach.

Tebow is a gamble especially over Clausen who at one point was tipped to be the best QB in the draft.
