With all the new bodies on the club, I am curious who everybody thinks will have a breakout year that was already on the team. My choice will be Cris Williams-We are in dire need of a new return man and I think he carries that torch. He has speed to burn, he will also contribute at WR as our 5th wideout. With all the new players, he will find a place to succeed.

I am not defending Tucker, but I guess I am. He was given a defense that was Lovies and said to accept it. It had aging stars and not much depth. The worse happens Tillman, Briggs,Melton, Collins,DJ Williams, K Haden all get hurt. They sign Sedric Ellis and he retires. Urlacher loses his effectiveness and doesnt get signed. Julius Peppers hits the skids and shows up for only a few games. New rookies play like crap. He didnt have a lot going for him last year but after further review Emery decides to fix it. Brings in coaches , and new players. I dont know if we will be a top 10 defense but we will be tons better than last year.

To waste a draft spot on him, he should be .

Thats is spot on what scouts think of him, to play WLB or situational pass rusher.

I heard two football scouts interviewed on the radio, and his problem is with ball recognition. Appears hard to learn nuisances of defenses. Stud physically but lacks in football sense.

If I was gay I would hit on him. He's ripped.

I wonder what the deal is with Sutton? I would suspect the first round is the place where it could take some time, 3rd round should be rollings in.

I think Cris Williams get his spot on the roster, the more I read about Jones the more I understand why he didnt get drafted. I think the possibility exists he doesnt make the squad.

Your right but doesnt it seem were always the first with all of our players signed.

Wow , you must never read any of my posts.

I think there rating us so low because we didnt draft a S in the first round.

I think we definitely get better with our offense. This will be a stud O for the next few years. The second year always shows the most growth in a new system. Our Oline will be better and so goes the offense. We now have in place some depth at positions other than TE and being they didnt draft one that must mean Onobun is ready to take a step.

Charles will get more points that Forte, so just take Charles and go from there.

The point was we knew the S prospects up close and personal and choose Fuller instead. If Emery thought he is a better player than the two Ss that is what he has to go with.

You guys to try to get along like me and SCS. Its not all that hard, I just ignore him. (just kidding)

How lucky can we be to have Cliff, he knows his shit. We never have holdouts.

Your wrong about the Bears , the punter will start next year also. I also think Fuller will be the #2 CB and they will play Jennings as the slot corner. That will work out quite well.

I was listening to the radio today and they were talking about taking Fuller over the two safeties. The interesting part was we have two coaches that was on Louisville and Ala coaching staffs last year. I would say that gave us a front seat on those prospects. We took Fuller because he was a better player and all of that will play itself out.

If Carey has talent, I would like to see him get 30% of the carries. It takes less wear off of Forte and lets his career last longer. Historically when RBs hit that wall they get bad quick. The less work Forte does preserves his life for an extra year or two.

Im not a McDick fan either. Its nice when we get cudos from (so called) experts but all of it will show up in training camp and I think Emery will look smart by this time next year.

We addressed our line here and in FA , I think we will be much better for it. Trestman must have liked Fales a lot or I dont think drafing a QB was on Emerys radar. I think we almost did as good with UDFA as what we did in the draft. Jones and Lynch willl make the final roster and Groy will make the practice squad. I think we got two really good DTs in the second and third round. They replace Ratliff and Paea in the future years. Rotational guys as of now. Fuller is going to be a star. Leno makes the roster . Carey is damn good and will be a tandem with someone else once Forte is done. Vereen ends up being the starter game 5 and keeps the job. We have a new punter that is bitchin Fales rests on the practice squad. All the draftees make the team this year and a few UDFAs.

Drafts, I believe take 3 years to play themselfs out. This year we will be grading his first draft. If SCM plays well at SLB then we will look at his first differently. Grabbing Jeffery and trading for Marshall almost negates the bad players he drafted.

We think a like, I posted some of this information on its own thread. I think Donald is the only guy he would have took over Fuller, I bet you he had him rated higher than Gilbert. I think the reason he drafted Fuller over both Ss is he thought they will be better players, he wasnt concerned of needs as which good GMs get the BPA guys and build a team around them .

All that stuffs gone now, I doubt if there is anything still standing from the days you were around.

Our Lads is run by former scouts and I look often at there opinions. 1. They had Fuller rated as the 5th best prospect 2. They had Ego as the 4th best DT 3. They had Sutton rated as the 5th best DT 4a They had Carey as there top rated RB 4b I could not find his name in the ratings. 6 Fales as the 13th rated QB 6 Donnerly as the top rated punter 7 Leno as the 12th best T UDA Jones as 4th best ILB UDA Lattimer as the 7th best ILB UDA Groy as 13th best G Im not saying they are smarter than anybody else but they have at least been in the War Room before.
