They took a fairly big gamble/risk trading back to get the 2 extra picks, but it worked.
you're saying you think they would've taken mendenhall if they didn't believe brown was attainable? they had a shot at both so i'm not totally sure what you mean...

That's actually what I mean. As long as both were available they would select Brown, but if Brown was already off the board, then they might have taken Mendenhall. I'm still not sure they would have actually done it as Kubes & Gibbs don't seem to like to take 1st round RBs.

Well, after the Pgh game, I sure don't know squat. Colvin was a bust (cut), Brown the "glassman" is on I/R *&^%$!, Ahman as someone predicted is hurt, and Schaub stunk up the house. Of course Kubiak and Richard Smith have to take their share of the gloom & doom too. I am feeling about 2" above whale manure today, and whale manure is on the very bottom of the ocean!!!!

whales poop? weird, i never thought about that...

anyway...i think if anything the pittsburgh game shows we need someone who can cover up the middle of the field. OLB, S, whatever.

my needs now:
1. S
2. DE
3. RB/OLB
4-7. OL/DL/RB

Well KJ, after the Tacks game, do you still stand by your prediction? This team is disorganized like Casserley's was. So what do we do? I say cut the fat, and get down to the players that want to win, pick up players as they become available from other teams, OR just quit and wait till next year (gag!).
