I dont see how Suh is overrated really. I think Gerald Mccoy is overrated imo.

 

[Yankees2772]

Suh is overrated because everyone is seeing him as a "can't miss" prospect and such.. He'll be a fine starter, and frankly the player with the best chance to actually translate to the next level, but personally I don't see him panning out to be a DT that is worth a top 3 pick.

 

[Blake]

I can agree with Shipley and Colt being highly overrated.

Isn't Shipley like second all-time in yards for Texas?

 

[RipCity32]

I think Suh will translate to a Pro-Bowl-esque DT.
So not really overrated in my eyes. He's too quick to not excel.

 

[Blake]

He won't be a bust -- I'll say that; however, he could be just average.

McCoy on the other hand is either going to be decent or God awful

 

[PhillySportsFan]

5 picks in the 1st 3 rounds in a draft class deeper than Plaxico's asshole.

I think we trade one of our 2nd rounders for a 1st next year

 

[STLZACH]

Bradford seems to be our guy.
released bulger, so that pretty much secures it.

 

[Blake]

Clearly it does then -- I think that Tampa needs to keep the third pick as a lot of fans are saying we should too trade down.

Hopefully we go 1-15 and nab Julio Jones next season. If not we need to grab a good WR in the second and third rounds.

Keep an eye on A.J Green for the future as well.


I still don't get why people consider Suh highly overrated... I just don't get it.

We thought the days of perennially using first-round picks on wide receivers was over the day Matt Millen was no longer with the Detroit Lions. But maybe not, since there is new speculation that the Oakland Raiders are looking closely at top WRs (such as Dez Bryant) in this year's class. This is just one year after over-drafting (in most peoples' opinions) Darrius Heyward-Bey at No. 7 overall. Let's not forget they also took Louis Murphy in the fourth-round last year, and Chaz Schilens in 2008.

ESPN.com's AFC West blogger Bill Williamson thinks acquiring a veteran receiver -- Torry Holt? Terrell Owens? -- would be a smarter option, but with the Raiders, anything is possible.

 

[Mooche]

LOL. Raiders going with the Dez Bryant stunner would be EPIC.

 

[Blake]

Al Davis isn't that stupid.

































































































Or is he?

 

[.infamous]

Al Davis needs to die. Im surprised people still go to there games there worse than the lions lol.

 

[Blake]

At least they have a little bit of talent.

Al Davis is easily the greatest owner in the history of the NFL.

He's done more than anyone for the NFL, even more than Paul Brown.

But I must agree, maybe not die -- but retire or something.

 

[RipCity32]

The suspense is killing me..

John Clayton said that we might trade a 3rd for Haynesworth. If we do that, we will draft Okung, and I will kill myself!

 

[elcheato]

I really hope Eric Berry falls to us, that would be amazing..

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

Looks like a TE or WR, just can't see us drafting a TE in the first round but who knows with Marvin Lewis and Mike Brown. We really do need a good TE because that is definitely something we are missing within the offense BUT I'm not sure about drafting one in the first round, Bengals haven't done that before, guess we'll find out soon enough. I've learned to just expect the unexpected with this team.

NFL Network all day FTW!
