It's not that farfetched.
I don't think Oakland or Arizona particularly want to draft a QB up there. Denny Green has said that McKown is his QB (for whatever that's worth). If Ben slips past the Giants, there are a string of teams that already have their young QB, except Pittsburgh. But if Pittsburgh gets Henson, then Big Ben might just be there at 13.
There is no way he reaches us if he falls out of the top 5 the Steelers or someone else will trade up to snag him.
It's OK to day-dream but that's taking it a step too far.
ye while id cream myself if it did, wont happen. Even if he fell out top 5 he wont make it out top 10.
My guess is someone would trade up for him if he is not drafted in the top 4 picks and the Steelers trade for Henson...You never know though. Who would of thought Terrell Suggs would of fallen so far last year....every year there is always a surprise person or two that drops but QBs aren't usually a position that drops far.
What pick did Daunte Culpeeper go at, where did Leftwich go. I wouldnt say it isnt possible. Also, dont forget, the Naysayers really havent gotten their turn yet and when that happnes his stock could EASILY rise or fall.
1. Chargers - Manning
2. Raiders - Fitzgerald
3. Cardinals - Gallery
4. Giants - Taylor?
5. Redskins - already have Brunnel / Ramsey
6. Lions - already have Harington
7. Browns - Couch / Holcomb
8. Falcons - Vick
9. Jaguars - Leftwich
10. Texans - Carr
11. Steelers - Henson?
12. Jets - Pennington
13. BUFFALO!
See what I mean?
Now, who is going to trade up to get Ben? Green Bay? They want to make one last run with Favre.
IT's not that far fetched EE. Especially with Mike WIlliams entering the Draft. I think him and FItz will go to the Raiders and Cardinals which leaves the Giants who desparately need an LT so I don't think they can pass on Gallery.
That leaves Pitt if no team trades up. I would not be shocked at all if he fell to 13. Not expecting it but it would not shock me.
I'll agree with you on Arizona but Oakland could use someone to take over from Gannon.Originally posted by Earthquake Enyart

Steelers could also pounce on Steve Jackson, or be one of those teams that could strike a deal to trade down

Thats true but if Tuiosisopo is healthy they were supposed to be real high on him. Who knows. Would not be suprised if Raiders took BR but I thjnk they will take Fitz.
He looked great in the MNF game against KC. Brought them back and if Brown thought enough to take one extra step before his cut on the last play and get in the end zone, he would have knocked off the previously undefeated ChiefsOriginally posted by Fairway To Green

As it turned out- he came up 1 foot short of the win on the final play
Completely forgot about him. Maybe they would settle on a mid-rounder at QB to backup. ..unless they want RJ to come in off the bench.Originally posted by Fairway To Green

Cleveland AND Pittsburgh are slobbering over Roethlisberger. No way he gets past Cleveland.
Donahoe expressed a lot of interest in Roethesburger during an interview on the NFL channel combine coverage.

Where do you get that info? Cleveland does not need a QB.
You think there sold on Kelly Holcombe? There also looking to dump Tim Couch. "Big Ben" could sit for a year and learn and take over the next year.Originally posted by Fairway To Green

I think they have a lot more pressing needs than QB. If they dump couch in FA period I could see them maybe taking BR but even then I think they have too many other holes. I bet they take Winslow or one of the big WR's
Holcomb has a torn labrum and they may be cutting Couch..they might be entering the Henson derby now.
Ben Roethesburger could go still possibly go #1, he is that good. There is no chance in hell this guy falls to us! He won't last 4 picks, and he will be gone, but damn it would be very nice...
If you walk with Jesus today, you don't have anything to worry about tomorrow...
