With the 54th Pick in the 2008 NFL Draft....

big schools.

Bargin nBasement

Your Eastern Tennessee Titans!!!!!!!

What the fuck?

This is awful.

All would have been forgiven had Limas lasted one more pick.  

Disgusting.  

Goddam im pissed... really bad draft so far..

2 big reaches with the picks...

Dont get it...

If they dont like WR then at least take LB Dan Connor..

are the anti-Matt Millen.

Never pick a reciever in the first round or second for that matter.

im going to bed praying for that someone of our WR finally shows some skill, cause I dont think we will draft any in this years draft.(Go Brandon Jones, Gage and Roydell.).

Dont think Reinfelt has done a good job since coming here.

doesn't even have a profile on hih.

Strengths: Quick enough to beat blockers to the point of contact and can hold ground against the run when lined up at end and plays with sound technique. Uses hands well, has long arms and flashes the ability to shed blocks quickly. Keeps head up and does a nice job of locating the ball carrier when scraping down the line of scrimmage. Works from the snap to the whistle, takes sound pursuit angles and shows better range than 40-time suggests. Active pass rusher that moves well laterally and can set offensive tackles up to the outside before redirecting inside. Drives legs once in position, shows adequate lower body strength and flashes the ability to collapse the pocket. Has experience lining up at defensive tackle and can slide inside in certain situations. Blocked a kick last year and can contribute on special teams. Has good bulk now and is tall enough to add weight without sacrificing agility.

Weaknesses: Lacks prototypical top-end speed for an end, frequently a step slow getting to the quarterback and should struggle to turn the corner at the next level. Doesn't have elite explosiveness either and isn't going to make as many plays in the backfield as did at the collegiate level. Fails to consistently get hands up when isn't going to get to the quarterback. Plays too high, lacks elite lower body strength and can get driven back at times. Played at a small school, relies on natural ability a little too much at this point and could struggle making the adjustment to the NFL. Missed one game with a leg injury in 2006, missed one game with a leg injury in 2007 and durability is a concern.

Overall: Jones arrived at Eastern Michigan in 2004 and moved from tight end to the defensive line midway through his freshman season. He appeared in all 11 games, finishing the year with four receptions for 12 yards. Over the next two seasons (2005-'06), he made 22 starts and recorded 104 tackles (30.5 for losses), 10.5 sacks and two forced fumbles. As a senior, he appeared in all 12 games (11 starts) and had 70 tackles (19.5 for losses), 3.5 sacks, a forced fumble and a blocked kick. Jones primarily played defensive end for the Eagles, but also took reps at defensive tackle. He missed one game in '06 and one start in 2007 because of separate leg injuries. Jones doesn't have the initial burst or closing speed of an elite edge rusher and he's obviously going to face a much higher level of competition in the NFL so he has to sharpen his technique. That said he has the frame, toughness and motor to develop into an effective power end in a two-gap scheme so he projects as a late third or early fourth round pick.

I would have taken Agnie over this player

does Belmont or Lipscomb have any intermural players that they might take with all of those 4th round picks.

since CINCY took a WR we can get Ocho Cinco for a 1st next year and a 4th this year? Highly unlikely...YES, but it's all I have to hold on too after today... ARRRGH!

 guess this means cris henery sucks and was a wasted 2nd round draft pick last year.
 i think they went for henery last year due to his physical shape and speed.  yeah but hello you cant take sterioids in the nfl if that indeed is the case.  once they take his roids away he withers on the vine.  atleast if that is the case maybe his head will clear and he can find out to step to the side on kickoffs and not make the highlight films for all the wrong reasons.
  i like the new guy pretty well.  he can return kicks. his speed is really what i like  and he can also play wide reciver.  so infact we did get a wide reciver with the first pick plus he doubles as a running back and a returner so iam happy.  
 maybe lendale has gotten the message that he needs to be faster and stay out of the buffet line and hit the weight room.  
  hopefully this year isnt like last year.  where the first pick griffin was a gem and henery was a bust at the second pick.  
  we need to find players in these high draft choies 1 and 2 that actually end up on the team. imagine if the pacman pick wasnt a wasted pick and we got somebody that was actually going to be on the team for years to come. or if henery wasnt a wasted pick we would have two players with first and second round talent contributing right now and that would free us up to meet other needs we have at this point.  
  instead we keep chasing our tail trying to draft a running back year after year after year while other postions get no attention and whither.
  so ive come up with a conclusion that if you waste high draft picks and they dont pan out it screws us for years cus the folloing year you have to go back and waste a high draft pick on the same postion and the other postions lag behind and get no attention so they end up suffering.  
 so we need to make sure if we are going to draft a plyer high that they are good enough to start and not a reach and a project.  trying to find these dimonds in the rough is costing us bigtime cus if they dont pan out we have to waste next years high draft pick on the same postion when we should have gotten a reciver.

 

i'd rather have us take justin king or mario manningham in 3. round. doucet will still be there in the 4.
