What the Whitner Picks tells us

[DraftBoy]

1. That Michael Huff was #1 on our Draft Board like Ive been saying for months, right Ice?

2. Whitner is a very versatile DB and can play Cb, he is also from Ohio St, I think Buffalo is very close to moving Nate and taking an OL/DL late in the 1st, and Watkins to play S in rd 2 or 3.

These are my thoughts on the pick as is

Re: What the Whitner Picks tells us

one other thing it may tell us: Matt Bowens was brought in for ST and is not intended to be a starting S.

You mean Matt Bowen wasn't ever intended to be our starting safety? It can't be. ICE said he was gonna be the starter. Bowen was supposed to be another one of them "up and coming stars"

So much for this theory. This team sucks.

Unless this guy ends up being the 2nd coming of Ed Reed then this is truly pathetic. Even if he does Ed Reed was paid as a Top 20 pick and not a Top 8 pick. He better be the best safety ever to be worth this money.

Not really. I am willing to bet Bush and Williams were tops on the board, followed by DBrick, Hawk and Huff. So no, you arent right.

That said Whitner is the 3rd or 4th rated S on most 'experts' Charts. Now I will agree with you on only one point...we must have an offer for Nate. If not, this was a horrible pick. We trade nate, get an extra 1st and move Vincent back to CB...it is a decent pick, not a good one

Re: What the Whitner Picks tells us

Why give Bowen starter money to play special teams...I am sooo sick of being the laughing stock of the league...The tradition continues...If the fins did this we would be busting a gut in laughter...I hate the way this team has been run the last 6 yeaars

Really? Vincent is currently #1 at FS and Bowen at SS. Maybe Vincent will lose is job to the FREE Safety we just drafted? Or we trade clements and move Vincent back to corner.

Re: What the Whitner Picks tells us

Let me let you in on a little secret.. Whitner and Vincent are your starting safeties.. NOT Bowen.

If you want to hold on to that hope to get you through the summer, then be my guest.

Re: What the Whitner Picks tells us

This'll add fuel to the fire

From ESPN
Whitner played mostly on special teams in all 13 games of his true freshman season in 2003. He split time with Tyler Everett in the first two games of 2004, then took over as the starter and started the next five games before suffering a knee injury in the first half of the Indiana game. He underwent arthroscopic surgery and missed the next game vs. Penn State. He returned the following week against Michigan State, sat out the next week at Purdue, but returned to play in the final two games of the 2004 season. Whitner started all 12 games as a junior in 2005 and finished with 73 tackles, nine TFL, four sacks and two interceptions. Whitner lacks ideal experience as an early entry prospect that only started one full season (2005) of his collegiate career. He still has room to improve in terms of his recognition skills ...

Re: What the Whitner Picks tells us

You can't argue with ICE. He's a little slow. Bowen will not be our starting safety.

I'm still shocked one of the 5 players ICE predicted to be drafted by us didn't get picked.

Re: What the Whitner Picks tells us

I am SOOO Pissed with left Leinart on the board, I NEVER expected him to be there.

Re: What the Whitner Picks tells us

i gotta believe they were in love with whitner and worried detroit would take him, so they didn't want to trade down.

Re: What the Whitner Picks tells us

I think Whitner was the pick all along, even higher than Huff. I think that they feel that Whitner fits their defense and thats why they picked him at 8. I like the pick

hahahahahahaaaa.......Are you also 76 years old? and frgot your pills?

If there is a clements trade involved, then ok maybe ill forgive, but why leave Leinart on the board, you know people wanted him, so lock him up.
