Our Draft, What we should do

I'm 99% sure were going to get the first over all draft pick and with that we need to pick a monster of a O-linemen (i know this has been mentioned befor but bear with me) such as Derek Sherrod 6-6 305lbs, or Mike Pouncey 6-5 320lbs, since we dont have a second we should see if anyone would give a first or a very high second for J-stew. (we wont get rid of D-will and goodson has proved so far to be a good back) and if a team takes J-stew we should draft a destructive DT like Nick Fairley, or Jarvis Jenkins.
Then we need to draft in this order a
O-Linemen
CB
RB
FB

Re: Our Draft, What we should do

Would you pass on peyton manning, john elway, john unitas, tom brady, joe montana?  Andrew Luck might be the the next great QB.  I will be crushed if we pass on him.  I'm afraid if you pass on Luck you will feel like Portland trail blazers taking sam bowie and passing on mike jordan.

Re: Our Draft, What we should do

if we get the first pick which its pretty much 99% sure we will, you have to take Luck. People are beginning to throw his name in the Peyton Manning, Tom Brady, and John Elways. Take him and don't make this franchise look like a fool

Re: Our Draft, What we should do

Amen jayman.  I would rather take him have him turn out like Ryan Leaf than not take him and have him turn out to be great.  I read somewhere best prospect since Elway or Manning.  I love the way he plays, he is Rothlisberger with wheels he is pretty fast and seems to be a very accurate passer.  Who was more important to there teams Montana or Rice?  Unitas or Berry?  Bradshaw or Swann?  You cannot pass on potential franchise QB's.  If anyone passes on Luck they will be a laughing stock.

Re: Our Draft, What we should do

We need anyone but Hurney to make these picks.

Maybe turn Luck into numerous picks ......... even if new CBA is in place I doubt out stingy owner wants to pay any # 1 pick.

We definitely should give the number 33 pick to the Patriots for Armanti Edwards  ........... I think he has the potential to catch a kick off in a game at some point. 

Hurney has to get canned for whats on the field as much as Fox or anyone deserves to be,  there is no way we can move past this with him in charge,  we have leveraged our future 3 years in a row by trading up on misses while giving away better picks.

Re: Our Draft, What we should do

Yeah cakalaka it is getting harder and harder to defend Hurney.  He orchestrated Peppers contract that overpaid him and completely hamstrung the team for 3 years.  He also gave Delhomme a ridiculous contract.  I don't think you will be able to trade the first pick for multiple picks.  No team has been able to pull that off recently.  Although Luck might be the bait that causes someone to move up.  I of course hope we take Luck.

Re: Our Draft, What we should do

Before we all jump on the Luck bandwagon, we need to keep in mind that he is only a sophomore and may decide to return to school for one more year. It could hurt his draft position in 2012 (it's happened many times in the past that the extra year brings injury or a slump), but considering the possible lockout and no football in 2011, he may wait until the CBA gets worked out/doesn't get worked out to decide. I mean, if you had the option of getting drafted but not playing ball and sitting around trying to stay in shape, or going out for another year of college ball, shooting for a National Championship, what would you do? Something to think about.
