5th round pick
 

what are your thoughts here for rodrique Wright from texas here in the fifth round? Seems to me this would be serious value to get him here. The kid was very productive in college and seems to have slipped quite a bit.

Probably Marcus Vick :dance2:

I love Rodrigue Wright.... get this guy!!! He has a great first name, just so happens to be my last name.

RE: 5th round pick
 

Well there went Kyle Williams..... :microwave:

RE: 5th round pick
 

DE... LMAO

RE: 5th round pick
 

Rob Ninkovich? Well at least it was defense....adds some depth to defensive end.

RE: 5th round pick
 

D_it_up,

Detillier compares him to Vrable, so at 255lbs, maybe he's going to play LB for us??

Other than that, this draft is killing me.

RE: 5th round pick
 

I think he'll make a smooth transition over to saftey... or RB

RE: 5th round pick
 

if they wanted a DE why didn't they pick James Wyche. Like Trump say "you fired" Loomis

RE: 5th round pick
 

Detillier claims that Loomis always let Haslett make the picks. This is probably ALL Payton.

RE: 5th round pick
 

says he could play in a 3-4 maybe eventually we will be switching. says he is about a year or two away from starting. soundedd like he was ok

RE: 5th round pick
 

I guess after drafting Bush, they had to draft some chumps they could afford.

RE: 5th round pick
 

they also say he could maybe move to LB and perhaps special teams player, from day one, so maybe get some use out of him.

RE: 5th round pick
 

That's been the excuse for settling for unknowns yesterday and today. As long as we got Bush, everything is okay... which definately is not the case at all.

RE: 5th round pick
 

well papaz the guy is a hard worker and someone who has some pretty good stats. pakowitz brought up a good point about us trying to get guys cheap, they would be cheap anyway they are second day guys. i am sorry this guy sounds like a good pick. just because you ahven't heard of him doesn't mean he sucks

RE: 5th round pick
 

its not weather he will suck its the matter that there was someone else available that was better... and could be a better need/fit.

RE: 5th round pick
 

I agree Spkb. This coaching staff seems to know what direction they are going. Maybe we don't agree with it, but I'm going to hold my judgement on the draft for a while. I trust Coach P to handle things here. Lets see if he can put things together in NO.

RE: 5th round pick
 

Never said he sucked... I said he was an unknown. Picks just don't make any sense.

RE: 5th round pick
 

yeah papz I agree you have to get value for your picks not throwing darts at a board.

RE: 5th round pick
 

right and they probably have some more knowledge then you do euph because um that is what they do for a living. that harper sounds like another good pick too.

RE: 5th round pick
 

Just because you get paid to do something doesn't make you good at it...

they aren't bad picks, just out of the blue. yeah, the prolly have teh info we don't, but we can't help but wonder who/why.

THey do add depth, but hell, i just came in off the ledge after the Harper pick. I was irate last night about that!
