Stephen Hill looks as though he'll be gone Rueben Randle...slower, but more college production Mohamed Sanu Coby Fleener...i know he's a TE but hes a great pass catcher Nick Toon Jarius Wright Marvin McNutt Dwight Jones (later of course)
I like Hill the best but all signs point to STL going that direction...unless they decide Cordy Glenn is better and would rather a guy like Sanu or Randle a few picks down the road.
I kinda say get Bobby Massie if Hill is gone...or go get Hill then take Schwartz, then grab someone else later...i just dont know who.
Thoughts? We need a WR by the end of today...who?
"It has to start somewhere It has to start somehow What better place than here? What better time than now?"
I would probably go OL at 37 with Martin or Glenn and trade up from 67 for Jeffery, if he is gone I take Greg Childs or possibly go Ladarius GReen for TE and pickup a Dwight Jones or Jordan White later.
Can he play with his hand in the ground for three downs? I don't know if he can. I think we can find a nickel pass rusher later in the draft (Tim Fugger?)

+1 on this. Would add Streeter and McNutt to the later queue as well.
If we go RT round 2, how about Juron Criner in round 3?
Hill is intriguing now that we have a Qb that has the arm to let us stretch the field. If we go RT round 2 there are a lot of good wr's remaining. All 3 of the guys out of Arkansas Childs, Adams, Wright), Criner, Jones, Broyles are guys I like.
Jeffries, Givens, Sanu, Randle, Quick are also out there.
That totals 11 Wr's just off the top of my head. Unless we really like one of these guys way better than the others then I say get the RT. I don't see double digit Wr's going in round 2 but I can see Martin, Massie and Glenn all going. I don't like the dropoff at RT after them. Adams? The guy from Illinois? Schwartz? Just not sold on that 2nd group of RT's.
Am I perfect? No Am I trying to be a better person? Also no
Quote: Unless we really like one of these guys way better than the others then I say get the RT.
Yeah, I'm sold on RT with our first pick. Someone who can come in and immediately start. I think that's where we'll go. Heckert can't be foolish enough to really think Cousins can start.
I'd love Glenn, Martin, or Massie. If all three are gone, pray for Randle.
Although, Randle is my top guy of the WR's left. I like Jeffery, but Randle is tall and fast. He can stretch the field opposite Greg Little with Norwood in the slot. He'd be a great target for Weeden.
What we really need is someone like Braylon Edwards, but not named Braylon Edwards (and who doesn't beat up Lebron's friend or think of himself as god when he drops the ball too much. He's got too big of an ego). Of course, Braylon is probably more athletic than any player in this draft, period.
That the Jets haven't signed him yet really shows me that he was a bigger pain in the butt than we ever realized
Quote: According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, the Rams' top targets at the start of the second round "appear to be" LSU WR Rueben Randle, Appalachian State WR Brian Quick, and Wake Forest WR Chris Givens. All three were pre-draft visitors at Rams Park, so the club has done its homework on each one. Givens seems the likeliest to still be available the latest, and is probably the least probable option at the No. 33 overall pick. The Post-Dispatch expects the Rams to "almost certainly" draft a receiver at 33.
Big, knows how to get open, runs good routes, has good hands, maybe not short range quickest guy, but really fast, (IIRC, he ran something like a 4.3 40) has great body control. he needs some coaching on how best to use his size against corners, but I think that he will be a really good receiver.
My fear is that he will wind up with the Steelers and become their next mid round great receiver.

Quote: Our front office dropped the ball on this big time
Because we addressed three other major offensive needs? Or were you expecting us to draft a world beater WR in the 3rd round? Since 1999, we've drafted 7 WRs in the second round ... 3 of which are still on the team. It's not like a 3rd rounder is going to be an instant #1 for us. Heck ... with proper right-side line protection to go with the left ... a Quarterback with an NFL quality arm ... and a runningback that will keep defenses honest ... maybe those three second rounders will start actually looking like second round picks.
