I wonder if we were targeting the player that Aintlanta jumped ahead of us for? If not then we made them waste a pick.:bng:

Let's just give these picks back and start over. Loomis had to be sleep and the replacement gm came in and made these picks. Two IR picks and one player that won't make it pass day 1 of cuts

Eagles would have taken him. He wouldn't have made it there.

It would have to have snowed in hell for cooks to have dropped to 27.

Nobody that picked after us took a WR, so why do you think that?besides, it did snow in Atlanta this year.

Alfred Blue gets picked! He got caught up in a numbers game at LSU after his injury. Good back and has some Joseph Addai in him.

I really like Powell. He was an elite recruit coming out of high school. I think Ryan may be able to polish that diamond. I like the Sunseri pick as well. Can't say I know much if anything about our 4th round pick. That said, I like how our draft has played out.

Khairi Fortt was originally a Penn St linebacker (LB U anyone?) who transferred to Cal after the Paterno/Sandusky thing. Mayock said he's got good range and is good in coverage, but he has durability issues.

I like the pick, he'll be a good one if he can stay healthy.

That's because Cooks was the last of the 1st round talents. I'm absolutely certain that Philly as Papz mentioned would have taken him. Or SF traded up to get him. The saints knew something.

Ronald Powell is a pro bowl caliber player if he stays healthy.

say what you want but going getting him was not a bad call at all... If he is your guy you go get him.
