I reckon he would make a good TE with the size of him, assuming he can catch!

| Quote Andy Gilder="Andy Gilder"Not done badly haven't the Packers out of other team's inability to spot talent.

Indeed. We have an excellent GM. Thompson is great at spoting talent and the depth he has built in all positions is incredible. Not only that aside from Ryan Pickett and Charles Woodson, both of whom we picked up when other teams thought they were done, virtually all of the players on our squad were actually drafted by us. There are a few exceptions such as Tramon Williams (Saints) and John Kuhn (Steelers) who we've claimed off waivers and have developed into very good players.

| It's not the style of QB I would want on my team but Tebow wins games and the more games he wins the harder it will be for Fox and Elway to justify getting in someone else at the end of the season.

Probably me.
I think it was a very poor pick. Von Miller is a good player but that doesn't hide the fact the positional value of LB doesn't warrant being selected that high.

I don't think the Rams thought Pickett was done at all. He had his best year as a Ram in his final season before he left. I was disappointed when we didn't resign him - It was a while back now, but I'm guessing he either wasn't kept due to cap management issues or because it had taken him until his contract year to show what he was actually capable of and we maybe didn't want to risk the all too often scenario of a player performing well to get paid and then relaxing.

The post was something like "he won't be any good in a 4-3" I think.

No.
My point was always that linebacker in the 43 just doesn't have the positional value to be drafted so high irrelevant of how good he is. Even in a 34 defence, the linebacker would need to be exceptional to go that high. It's the same principles for DE. DE is far more important in a 43 than a 34 hence in 2009 (?) it was a terrible pick by the Chiefs to take Tyson Jackson to play 34 DE when they could have taken BJ Raji to play NT.
If your drafting so high your problems are far more substantial than a LB.

| Roger Saffold could be the next Rams player to go on IR. Out this weekend and apparently needs season ending surgery. That will be three players on IR this week if he has the surgery.
