    Wow, that’s impressive. I do not.

    I started a thread on “who you would have drafted if you were GM” on the Draft forum... which no one has responded to yet ...makes me kinda sad... how about you list your picks there and a few years from now we can compare notes?

        That said. We just have to take all this stuff with a grain of salt. Its opinion. Its subjective. I'm excited about pretty much all the picks the more I read. Were there other players that might be "better"? Maybe but we can't really say how they would do in what Staley and crew is planning. I think Palmer is going to be a nice surprise...his speed isn't bad at all and frankly Allen isn't all world fast and he gets the job done and has been a top 10 receiver in this league when he's healthy and he's not fast. I look forward to hearing about Palmer. I have a "feeling" McKitty wasn't used as a pass catching TE much but that based on tape I saw (brief mind you) he looked fluid catching balls and is a big dude and can play two TE roles....may not be Henry but he will be a different contributor and may just surprise with the new offense Staley will be building. I think we have 2-3 starters out of our litter and depth to develop that will get play time. We filled big apparent gaps, but we all don't really know what Staley has planned so maybe he feels we had an A+.... FA isn't done yet though.....our roster is still fluid and I expect dept to be brought in as team shed vets.

        I think if we just look at the work done to date for our O, D and ST I can give my subjective opinion. O could have finally achieve a major change in this OL that with Slater's addition gives strength to our traditional bandaid OL....they might have the fix that could bring us back to the TOP offense when we went 12-4. D has had a lot of adjustment but the new scheme is completely unknown now with Staley taking over; we definitely have talent and I have hope Staley can do half what he did with the Rams last year to get us midpack. Our ST has had some injections of talent thru FA and Draft but so much relies on coaching at this point....lord I hope Badgely has been eating his wheaties or the new kid ...competition here. Overall we have things that seem pretty well addressed by our Draft picks and the FA changes. Our D can't really be much worse in how they lost games in the 4th quarter consistently. The O I have to believe will be improved with the OL and run game. 7-9 could see a swing upward if the stars align.

        I never said Panama's post was stupid, nor the younger generation was stupid. All generations have their own merits...and all are unique. But most certainly there is a lot of grade inflation in today's educational system and it effects how younger people think. There are other reasons I can think of for someone giving an A+.... maybe they are a bit of a homer, perhaps they are ultra generous, or they are in a really, really good mood.
        :More Q Please:

        ...or...they are speaking within some unique frame-work or context...that a reader might miss. Sorry for any offense, all.

          All good. FYI I am 50, very well educated, born and raised in Ontario Canada. Have been living in Panama for 15 years. I have been a bolts fan since 1979 and I was the only bolts fan I know of in my hometown. Just some background... This is not an add for a singles sight !!!! Hahahhahaha.

          As far as the draft goes, we'll see how this one worked out in a few years. I do believe that Staley had a focus on all three phases of the team as well as unique skill sets he was looking to improve vis-a-vis matchups. It is merely the first of what I hope is many drafts of which he's a part of for our team.

                That's kinda what Webb is gonna do drafted in the 7th. If he pans out he could be the steal of the draft.

                  And after that trade up for asante samuel giving up our 4th
                  1 slater
                  2 JOK
                  3rd samuel
                  3rd palmer
                  5th rumph
                  6th jaimes

                    We didn't trade up for asante. and asante would not have been there for out third round pick.

                      It’s impossible not to let your positional need influence your draft. And nothing wrong with it, you have to build a team and shore up the weak links. They certainly weren’t going to take a QB or a SS in the first round, for example. Also drafting for position can also mean which positions are more impactful, such as CB > ILB, if you believe that to be the case (I do).

                        I mean after drafting JOK then make a trade up for asante samuel it would have been nice

                          Did someone say Asante was #2 CB in the draft?
