I should gets some grunts too. There is no market to trade down and I got the best guy available at a position I needed to address.

I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

With DeAngelo Williams, I know Foster is the starter and they still have Goings so that is a bit of a log jam.
With Addai, the Colts have plenty of backs that are going to be mixed in as well. Not to mention, Manning will be throwing the ball a lot more too.

My only grunt is that's who I wanted with #24.Originally Posted by MBBedard
I couldnt take that risk. Even with the first pick in the 2nd round. He is by far the best center available, I figured someone would have the same need between now and then.Originally Posted by BillsFever21
Here is how my trade with Canada worked out.
Brewsers traded 1. Reggie Bush and Greg Spires
Canadien Radiation Kings traded 1. Nick Mangold, Lenard Little and Al Wilson.
Remember, 22 comes before 24.Originally Posted by BillsFever21
Good pick, Michael. I was definitely interested in taking Mangold in the 2nd w/ one of my 3 picks, but it looks like he wasn't going to last even if you took someone else in the first (since your pick is just before mine in the 2nd).Originally Posted by MBBedard
Mikey's turn to pick. Now.
Ooooh, Mikey better not take my guy!
It just wasnt a risk I wanted to take. I figured most people would have him as a target in the late first early second. And with Jeff Faine as my starter, I needed an improvement...bad.Originally Posted by R. Rich
wake me up when its my pick
I didn't say I thought he would be there. Just who I wanted.Originally Posted by R. Rich
I figured somebody would take him.
I hear ya. I really thought I'd be able to land him w/ my 22nd pick, so I now have to redo my strategy a bit.Originally Posted by BillsFever21
It's your pick.Originally Posted by L.A. Playa
Im happy I could mess up peoples boards a bit.
It's a good thing, actually. The more people go earlier than expected, the more good players I had no intent on scouting (since I thought they'd be gone) will become available.Originally Posted by MBBedard
