Present.

Everson Griffen, Ricky Sapp, Eric Norwood. Please land one of them somehow.

Two of the four guys I wanted already gone. (Griffen, Gilyard)

Another good pick in Williams.

still plenty of quality guys on the board.

Is there any way any OLB worth a damn other than maybe Schofield makes it to our pick without moving up? If we stand pat, I think Schofield is definitely worth a waiver. I think he's built for OLB in the NFL.

The Vikings got Griffen? ****.

I don't think he'll make it undrafted. I'd love to snatch him up anywhere today though.

I don't think the Packers believe there's a need for an OLB or they would have reached for one by now.

TT doesn't really reach though, at least in terms of who he thinks is BPA. I just think it hasn't worked out for them in terms of landing an OLB. I read a good amount of reports before the draft that we wanted another pass rusher. And even if they believe Jones is the truth, there is no depth there in terms of pass rushing ability.

I'm in the minority here, but I'm ok with our LB's. I'm happy where Ted went with DL and S.

Would another stud rush LB help? Of course he would. But this defense will improve more with a DL that can provide more consistent pressure and a safety who can cover the seam in the middle of the field. If these guys Ted picked are good players, this D will improve next year.

Once Graham and JPP went off the board, I think all the OLB's in this class that would have made an impact next season were gone. The rest were developmental guys and we already have Jones and Obiozor.

Al Davis got his man after all.

Hilarious. Bruce Campbell, the guy 2 months ago who was projected to Raiders at 8, goes to Raiders at 106.

If Ted thinks Pat Lee, Underwood and Tramon can shoulder the load behind the starters I guess we'll just have to give him the benefit of a doubt. Lee especially has all of the tools a CB needs if he could just stay healthy.

Perfect time for Oakland to take a waiver on Bruce Campbell. If Tom Cable can teach this kid how to show real effort, then he might be the steal of the draft.

aaprigs311 · Post #19 » by **aaprigs311** » Sat Apr 24, 2010 2:41 pm

What do you guys think about taking a guy like Greg Hardy? I'm sure he's not even on TT's board, but he'd be a low risk/high reward type that might be good value next round.

I remember hearing good things about Obiozor. Doesn't Green think he's going to be really good?
