what SHOULD have happend

we shoulda kept sims around for trade bait, gave the rams sims and washington or stu to trade up and swap picks with the rams for long... i am biased, because hes a legacy.. but the mere fact the way the guys goes full bore every play, i just dont see that from gholston. long reminds me of a stronger more refined freeney, who i got to watch play at Syracuse, quick hands, good reads and great angles, solid.

with bush being able to show this year and fargas signed to a new contract, we also had jordan to dangle as a carrot as well, along with freeing up some cap room for us and merely jumping up 2 slots... i fear we will regret not pushing for long in the end (i hope im wrong) but i just dont see mcfadden being a savior at rb.

off the field issues just get amplified when you hand over someone 30 mil guaranteed, long was a leader at virginia, a guy who improved the other people around him, just by setting the example, i can only hope that the guy we wind up with can grow enough to do the same.

Thats exactly what the Rams want our garbage. Sims who was cut and they didn't want him. Stu who was benched and although they may reade for Washington it would never move us up in hte draft. Why did you not say to throw Jordan in. Maybe they would have just traded us #2 pick for all 4.

one teams garbage is another teams upgrade, or werent you watching the 83 superbowl with plunkett ;)

but in all seriousness, it would be nice to know that even if it failed that they at least tried.
i did include jordan btw as another possibility. when NFLN was panning the camera over the tables, there were only a few teams at their chairs, and the only 1 i saw with people actually on the phone and not staring into space was the raiders table.
