This team, IMO, is built to last, from top to bottom. We have the right leaders, in the right positions. I might be jumping a major gun here, but I think this team will be in the upper end of the league for many years to come.

Re: 2010 NFL Draft

mount cody. some others im interested in include brandon graham from michigan. the main reason i like him is because of what he was able to do at the senior bowl. those are players who are going to play at the next level and graham completely dominated them. he would make a great addition at LDE.

theres also a few players from penn state i would like to see including LB Sean Lee and DT jared odrick who is 6'5" and 300 lbs

Only 6'5", 300 pounds? Kind of small huh?

Re: 2010 NFL Draft

Cody would die on the field in a Greg Williams defense. I can already see the CNN exclusive, with so called experts asking if Williams pushed him too hard.

a lot of hate for a guy who would be playing at 6'5" 350 lbs

the dude is giant, even when he gets blocked, he still wins the battle. if he stalemates the offensive linemen then he wins the battle.

there isnt a guy in the league right now who could block him consistantly and he would greatly increase our ability to stop the run. that would be a huge advantage in a division that runs the ball more than any other division in football

everyone in our division runs the ball to set up the pass. we stop the run and we make them 1 dimensional. everybody knows how deadly we are on defense when we know they are passing

Thats why he would be awesome in a 3-4 defense. He's like a hole plugger. In a 4-3 defense its a bit different, its more about penetration and quickness along with plugging. Not sure he works out well in that scheme. Wasn't really hating on him, just saying you can't force someone to do things they aren't built to do. I don't think he has the build or is in good enough shape to do that. I could be wrong though.

Great point! A player like Cody is a must for us. Smith-Cody-Ellis-Hargrove, can't really run on that defensive front. We would be tough to beat. My first two picks would be Cody and Spikes.

Sir, are you aware of the number of free agents we have going into an upcapped year?

Be interesting to see if Benson pulls the purse strings back now that he's got the Lombardi (well two if you count the QB coach)...

Hope Ms Rita is ready to take the reigns and figure out a way to keep this market competitive like Pittsburgh has managed to do so...
