Simeon Rice to the Cowboy's?

This move strikes me as confirmation that Parcells is on is last leg...not sure how I feel about bringing in a 31 year old pass rusher...we better be ready to win now.

sike · 04-23-2005, 11:02 AM

not so hot about it...bring in Howard...younger and better run support.

chumdawg · 04-23-2005, 11:17 AM

I'd a damn sight lot rather have a proven stud like Simeon Rice than I would a bust like Carver or Ekuban.

Dirno, I think we ARE ready to win now. You can turn things around awfully quickly in this league, and our offseason moves thus far have been brilliant. We're about one defensive stud and one receiver threat away from 11-5.

Smith at #1....no surprises so far [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

dirno2000 · 04-23-2005, 11:29 AM

Mickey and Norm are arguing about it now...I'm with Mickey, I don't think I'd do it. A speed rusher over 30 that can't play the run.

Chum, I agree that you can turn it around quickly, but when we do I'd like to have a little staying power. I don't want to load up for a big run and suddenly be in cap hell if we don't win the big one.

Graduated in two years and scored a 40 on the Wunderlich (2nd in the draft)...doesn't hurt to have a smart player at that position.

second hightest score behind the QB from Harvard

sike · 04-23-2005, 11:34 AM

So, who do the Fish take???? Brown or Edwards???

sike · 04-23-2005, 11:41 AM

Ronnie Brown...what do yall think of this kid???

The Ticket boys are thinking that Mike Williams may go at #5....to the Bucs

dirno2000 · 04-23-2005, 11:45 AM

Brown is a specimen...he's been impressive every time I'vs seen him. I guess the only question is can he carry the load because he's never had to do that at Auburn.

Did this actually happen? I just woke up, and haven't seen anything. What are the details?

chumdawg · 04-23-2005, 11:55 AM

Just a rumor, Chaff. Just a rumor. Probably unfounded, at that.

okay, I was a little confused by whether it had actually happened or not. Being hungover doesn't really help much.

ocelot_ark · 04-23-2005, 12:00 PM

Did anyone see the commercial for Madden NFL Next-Gen? Man...that looks sssssssswwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeettttttttttttttt. I usually wait a year or so for prices to come down on new consoles. I might just have to buy the XBOX 360 as soon as it comes out.

sike · 04-23-2005, 12:02 PM

No cards last night?

endtroducing · 04-23-2005, 12:10 PM

Brown carried the load in 2002. started after the 5th game, and then picked up over 1,000 yards in the remaining 7 games...had every carry from the time he entered as a starter

endtroducing · 04-23-2005, 12:11 PM

Benson is crying. I laugh.

sike · 04-23-2005, 12:12 PM

stuff starts happening now.....

Played cards all day yesterday before i started drinking. Had a horrible run. KK cracked by J6 and the like. That combined with finals coming up means i might have to take some time off.

Great pick by the Bears!!!

Perfect back for the black and blue division...

totally agree....he'll look good with the C on his helmet!

endtroducing · 04-23-2005, 12:17 PM

sike · 04-23-2005, 12:19 PM

It's called emotion...what's up your ass...mad because Cadalliac is still on the board?

chumdawg · 04-23-2005, 12:23 PM

Does Cadillac now have to waste away in the desert?

ocelot_ark · 04-23-2005, 12:24 PM

Benson just seemed bitter...like a guy who had always had everything his way wasn't getting his way.

sike · 04-23-2005, 12:24 PM

no, I think the Caddy goes to the Bucs

dirno2000 · 04-23-2005, 12:25 PM

Cadalliac goes to Tampa...Goose smirks...

sike · 04-23-2005, 12:25 PM

now does Merriman go the Arizona at #8?

chumdawg · 04-23-2005, 12:27 PM

How far does Rodgers freefall?

sike · 04-23-2005, 12:27 PM

does Rolle at #6?

Goose said repeatedly that Rogers is a top 10 talent....lets hope the Cards agree.

sike · 04-23-2005, 12:39 PM

finally Mrs. Pac Man has some spending money....I did not have Jones ahead of Rolle.

dirno2000 · 04-23-2005, 12:39 PM

Pac Man over Rolle...interesting

endtroducing · 04-23-2005, 12:41 PM

I think Rodgers is going to Arizona...so far I'm 6 for 6 on predictions...Pac-Man is going to be such a good player, imo

as far as Benson and Carnell, I was glad Chicago picked Benson. Benson is the perfect guy for Bears football, and that's why I had him in Chicago in my mock...Carnell doesn't go with that style of play at all
