Detroit wont let him leave... Im positive and Porky is right he is gunna get money hes not worth.

i think he could be a solid #2 WR and will probably recieve a contract slightly higher than most second WRs, so i don't think that it will be that big of a reach.

He has just over 1600 yards receiving in 3 years. More like a good #3. He'd probably do best in Mike Martz's offense but I wouldn't expect anything special.

yeah in Martz offense he'd do the best... just think two White WR's in Detroit next year... now thats something you dont see everyday...lol

So they settled for Foster and Bell. Last year they lacked a lot of depth and now they'll have it with Foster. Thomas in my opinion is still very likely with this pick.

My sources on that were John Clayton and the Detroit newspaper. Al Wilson was the main target, but they're still very happy with Foster and Bell and feel Foster is their future at RT. The regime has verbally stood behind Backus in interviews as well.

I really think they'd be stupid to pass on Quinn. Of course, look who I'm tallking about here. I personally think that the Cards will take LaRon Landry if Joe Thomas is gone by the time they pick. Their secondary needs a lot of help. Robert Griffith is a UFA and will probably retire. They're in the market for a FS and Landry's stock is at an all time high. The 49ers also signed Michael Lewis yesterday to be their starting SS. Keith Lewis had a very promising season at FS. I don't think they go safety at all. The 49ers actually become a team who could go many different directions with their pick. They could take Adam Carriker because they need someone to replace the probably loss of Bryant Young. They could also go with Ted Ginn because they just lost their deep threat in Antonio Bryant. I think that Levi Brown is also a possibility. I think all three of those players would be taken before Nelson now. 2nd mock in as many days that I've seen project an OG to Jax. Manuwai and Naeole turned out to be a very good OG tandem this year and Manuwai signed a large extension. The Jags don't need an OG. I think this is where Reggie Nelson could end up now because Deon Grant is gone. I also think that a big DE is still very likely. I hate seeing Revis in front of Houston still. I told you guys that Houston was going to break out at the combine. If you guys would just find some film of him in coverage. What he did to Dwayne Jarrett earlier in the season was incredible. The Trojans had to completely change their gameplan with Jarrett just to get him touches. Why Moss to the Saints? They franchised Grant and have Will Smith on the other side who only had 10.5 sacks. He doesn't project as an OLB in their system either. That's the worst pick of your draft. I don't think he slips that low anyway. I think the Broncos would take him over Johnson. Timmons isn't really the type of hybrid LB that the Ravens like. They'd be more likely to go with Woodley or Spencer. Meriweather is a FS and the Chargers need a SS. I don't like Olsen falling that far. He's too good. I think people will be surprised how high I have him going in my next mock. Chicago doesn't need a TE either. Hughes to Indy could work. I just don't like his value there at all. I made the mock draft before i saw Lewis signed with the 49ers and forgot to change it. I think Moss would work very well in the Saints defense. A lot of teams are starting to go the way of 'you can never have enough pass rushers".

Sure you can have depth at DE with pass rushers, but why waste a 1st round pick on one when you have possibly the best tandem of DE pass rushers in the NFL? That would be a dumb pick by the Saints.

Not exactly. Moss can rush from the DE and OLB as well.

He is not a 4-3 OLB in the Saints scheme. He doesn't match up with it at all.

From the above post about Curtis to Detroit, I've read that Detroit is going to try to keep him their and agree upon a contract.

Same with Denver. Patrick Kerney is supposed to meet with Seattle tomorrow I think, but word is Denver is trying to keep him thier to agree upon a deal.

Until I hear Thomas is completely ruled out I won't rule him out. I certainly think Quinn is possible thought but I really don't put much faith into newspapers. Green Bay newspapers had the Packers taking Vernon Davis last year and that didn't work out.
