Probably reading "Little Jack Horner". Looks like he's got his thumb already to go after that plum.

that we need.

If anything lets see whats going on and be sure to make a move upwards.

I really dont know how Emery plays the game..

Jackie you ain't followin' this draft or the players very closely if you think there are no impact players in later rounds than one. Unless we can nail a guy we just have to have within just a few picks in front of us moving up is costly and a waste.

Good thing JA is gone because he'd have tried. But ST would have gotten a real boost.

I miss Mikey. I wonder how he's holding up on the eve of the draft as he looks on wondering who the Donkeys are going to pick?

Back to the relevant conversation. I wouldn't be adverse to trading down. Many mock drafts are picking a guy like Mercilus to go within the last ten picks of the first round, plus there are two wide receivers that will be available if for some reason Emery feels we need to go that route. I don't really have a feel as to what Emery will do, but his background stems from people who worked in the Patriots' organization, so I wouldn't be surprised if he's the type who will consider trading down to stockpile picks.
