It's fine. More conversation = better. Otherwise it gets boring
I think McCarron would be a nice pick for Houston, if y'all can find a way to get him. Pro style offense and will be coming to Houston with an establish RB and an elite WR. Doesn't hurt at all. Reminds me of Chad Pennington a little?
I mean he can stay......just say we da best

I'm not that worried about our running backs. Johnson, Ivory, and Powell isn't a bad committee.

It was more a knock on the McDougle pick. McDougle was projected as a 6-7th round pick. Hes a short, not particularly fast, short armed CB that was hurt more often than not. Yes, there was some buzz about him leading up to the draft but seriously...

Awesome red zone target. Knickstape1214 wrote:Jets should draft Chris Boyd

I think most, if not all teams, are really turned off by him right now. Could be a someone to look at in the undrafted pool.

It's not just that, but along with his incident off the field that took him off Vandy.
DAMN YOU, COLTS!

Syracuse DT Jayson Bromley overcomes dark past for bright future in NFL
Born a crack baby and left on a doorstep in Queens, the 21-year-old Bromley used football to conquer adversity and anger issues.
He avoided the gangs and drugs on the streets of Jamaica, Queens, and the pimps and prostitutes that were frequent visitors to his apartment building. He sidestepped the roaches in his kitchen and the rats in the living room, too.
The only thing he couldn’t avoid was the anger. So a young Jayson Bromley, long before he became a football prospect, became a fighter. He fought anyone, anywhere, anytime, for any reason — mostly for no good reason at all.
“You couldn’t look at him,” says Frances Nimmons, the woman he calls Mom. “If somebody looked at him wrong, he’d fight him. He just was a kid with problems.”
“I had anger problems,” Bromley says. “All I wanted to do was fight people. I’d get mad and I’d black out and you couldn’t control me.”
He never figured out why that happened, despite years of counseling and endless talks with his mother. Maybe it came from the knowledge that his biological mother abandoned him when he was 3 months old, or that six months later his biological father was arrested for murder. Maybe it was all the crime around him, or the rodents that had become like pets.
Wherever the anger began, there was no question of where it ended.

He's what Jimmy Graham is. It would still be nice to have another guy on the outside. Although, I guess Amaro is going to be (hopefully) getting a lot of defensive attention so maybe you're right and WR isn't really a need?
I still have hope for Hill, btw.
