poop

first!

Here is my Worst-Case-Scenario Mock, that assumes all the sexy 1st and 2nd rounders are gone and we can't trade down:

1)Kentwan Balmer (DT)
2)Trevor Law (DT)
3)Roy Schuening (OG)
3)Eddie Royal (WR)
5)Colt Brennan (QB)
6)Jamar Adams (S)
7)Mike McGlynn (OG/OT)
7)Chris Harrington (DE)
7)Vince Hall (LB)

Not specifically familiar with the players with the picks in rounds 5-7, but i like the positions and found their names in a couple of mocks for us. I await your criticism.

I don't understand the hate on Nate. He has a passion and runs with it. Cynics rule the blogs in america because they can be 'unregistered' and attack under a stealth identity.

This wouldn't happen in Japan. Respecet should be recognized regardless of what format you are interacting.

(Let the 4th bashing commence)

I think that should be "AM there two of you posting?" Kursaal

I don't think there is any hating on Nate, just someone using the same handle. I have not seen anything mean directed towards Nate.

Thanks, 4th, I appreciate it.

Well put 4th!!!!

Also, on Chris Cooley's blog, he said Fabini is one of the hairiest people he's ever seen.

Posted by: unregistered | April 8, 2008 4:57 PM

Coming from Cooley, that's pretty scary!!

"How much blame to put on him for the oodles of poor contracts and the NFL record $80-plus million in dead cap space since 2000 is hard to pinpoint, however, given how hands on owner Daniel Snyder is in this regard, and the fact that Vinny Cerrato and Joe Gibbs were also charting the course the past 4 years, with Schaffer taking cues from them and much lower down the hierarchy. "

This guy is wanted by other Ball Clubs and you still bagging on them? How you gonna blame anyone with Snyder as the Monarch?? He dosen't cut the guys. He just makes sure he can fit these guys under the cap.

Plus, a lot of teams are using his tactics now when he was the only one using them 5-6 years ago. This guy knows the cap. He should get big ups, JLaC.......

I do appreciate the support, 4th, but 4:59PM was not me.

Agreed that it's been a heckuva confusing day up here, Confused. I too am Confused in Portland. Same as it ever was.

" ... The Saints lost their previous football administrations guy, Russ Ball, this off season when he went to Green Bay. ..."

Post-playing career for Rabach. He could be twice the man of this guy who went to Green Bay.

Repost:

talkshowhost,

Again, Eddie Royal does not have the size we need for a WR- 5'10" 184. There are several bigger WR this year and we do not need any more Moss/ARE size receivers.

Posted by: Curzon417 | April 8, 2008 4:57 PM

Your numerate perspective on this post is welcome 4th. JLaC, you are out of order!

Has anyone ever read the Fox Sports blog responses to articles? Those are always malicious and mean.

We should be thankful for what we have here. If the worst is an occassional registration problem or name theft, we have it pretty good.

" ... Respecet should be recognized regardless of what format you are interacting.

I'm pro-4th, but Aretha Franklin is now confused.

Yeah, but it gets tired quick....

IMO, Schaffer is who made some sense of the mess our FO created w/crazy signings prior to 2006.

Eddie Royal, of the Kansas City Royals?

Can you plead the 4th? If so, I'm taking it.
Yay 4th, boo 5th!

Oops, I was mulit-tasking and got him mixed up with Early Doucet (6'0). Thanks for the heads up.

Here is my updated worst case scenario:

1)Kentwan Balmer (DT)
2)Trevor Law (DT)
3)Roy Schuening (OG)
3)Early Doucett(WR)
5)Colt Brennan (QB)
6)Jamar Adams (S)
7)Mike McGlynn (OG/OT)
7)Chris Harrington (DE)
7)Vince Hall (LB)

Seriously, the registration is coming back, right?

This is nuts.

This is nuts.

Posted by: unregistered | April 8, 2008 5:09 PM

Are we talking about Rabach again now?

unregistered, your telling me ... this is exhausting. I'm thinking about actually doing some work.

Yes, registration is coming back.

Does that mean I'll be ununregistered then?

Or is it disunregistered?

TSH, much better size for what we are looking for. Would rather see us get Jordy Nelson in the second, but going with your thought that the good players are taken, not a bad pick.

This would be a far more inventive and mature and creative way of fighting the name thieves.

If you can't beat them... (and I don't mean beat them in a literal sense, Nate)

Hurrah for registration! I think.

Posted by: unregistered | April 8, 2008 5:13

Who is that?

My cat just finished on my face....I think it ate asparagus last night.

mmmmmm.

It's me. Or you.

Or maybe him. Or her.

Anyway, it's one of us.

Or is that we?

Them?

One of the unregisturds is t_e.

Another is probably dcsween.

everyone can register as unregistered. that will be fun.

Did someone steal my blog handle again?

Is the lesson of the day that the blog names don't matter, or that they do matter? Or that they only matter to some people?

Now THAT was a good fake Nate at 5:15. Really easy to spot. Thanks for that.

Because the blog is all about ME.

I toe tap in public restrooms.

Anarchy rules!
Saints FO poaching droolz!

(running to Cindy and Jason, crying about registration)

Nate in the PDX is the new unregistered.

I'm a tweaker.

What could be less interesting than the domino effect of capologists jumping teams? More silliness about registration on this blog.

Everyone is unregistered. Everyone is unregistered.

What happened HERE?!?! I leave my desk for two hours and this place goes CRAZY!

Evan Wiltson (yes, this is my real name - feel free to use it when posting if you feel the need)

Posted by: Evan Wiltson | April 8, 2008 4:49 PM

You COULD be Evan Wiltson, or you could be someone else. I've never heard of Evan Wiltson, but I can't say I could tell the difference between him and SETH.LEMASTER (if that is that guy's real name).

A quick review of the previous threads demonstrates that nothing actually happened. I think the hamsters need some food ... otherwise, they start eating each other.

One of the unregisturds is t_e.

Another is probably dcsween.

Posted by: | April 8, 2008 5:16 PM

Ah HA, something for ME ... oh, never mind.

maybe some news would help.

oh thats right there's no news, its the beginning of April.

angry blog today. no news. april is right. peeps here clearly need more sex.

Image all the hamsters blogging in peace and not faking each other...It's easy if you try. No registration below us, above us only pigs that fly.

Peace hamsters, share, play nice.

Lennon out.

Another unregisturd is are tafka.

To prevent the idiot from posting as me, I shall omit my name.

I will take loseable type anytime instead of another day like this.

THAT one, I recognize ... or at least narrowed it down ... John Lennon is either Dorf or LarryBud. Where is everybody today, I mean, other than the two Nates?

Doug Gabriel has been on the market and we missed that? Isn't he a tall WR that JZ and Vinny have been looking for?

We'll the Bunguls got him.

everyone is tafka today.

think about it.

4th, my only recollection of Doug Gabriel is from a mid-seasons fantasy football free agent ... for the Raiders. Is (or was) he actually good? Raiders doesn't seem like a place to be able to figure that out. In other news, the Bengals seem desperate.

The nice thing is that most regulars would not fall for the spoofer who is steeling the names.

He seemed to be good with the Raiders. He was out of the league last year when he was cut by the Raiders. Might be issues we are not privy to....

Bengals are extremely desparate. I wonder how BBP and LBP are feeling right now......

The wikipedias say that Doug Gabriel is 6'2".

I know that everyone here is anticipatorily in love with Anthony Mix (6'5"), but the Skins also have Billy McMullen (6'4") on the roster ... and he's actually played in more than five NFL games.

thanks Curzon417. I am pretty sure we won't have a realistic shot at nelson or hardy without trading up or down and those are the only players that have the "best bang for your buck" value that make them worth considering IMO.

An article like this would not have hurt JLa's credibility.

If we could trade down to early in 2nd rd, I think we could get Nelson.

In the spirit of JlaC's previous post about the skins going after players of questionable character (Jerome Mathis), evidently Kansas CB Talib admitted to testing positive for pot while in college and his falling down draft boards. CB is a definite need for the skins - should they grab him? I'd probably pass. Why risk selecting a knucklehead in the first round.

Posted by: Curzon417 | April 8, 2008 5:48 PM

Credibility with who? (or is it with whom?) Diehard Skins fans? Or people who tune in to read his take on whatever? [Frankly, this type of article would REEK of fraud to me if it were written by Jasno ... at least until things start to change a little.]

What I don't get is why people get so upset when Jasno rips into Vinny or The Owner and read it as "anti-Skins." Its anti those two.

Just like there is a difference between the jersey and the player wearing it, there is a difference btwn the Skins (as a symbol of the community) and the two guys who own and run the team.

I'm for the team ... people come and go.

I would guess that more than half of the potential draftees have smoked Marrid to Juana. Just so happens a few got caught.

I see no big deal, especially with Talib. Calvin Johnson, Okoye, and Gaines Adams admitted to smoking and all were sleceted in the top 10....

Ricky Willams, did someone say Ricky Williams?

mtnskinsfan, you run the risk of getting a player like Randy Moss, or Warren Sapp. a slight risk, but you have to account for that. where there's smoke...

BONG

Credibility with the bloggers who say he needs to be tough on the Skins. Maybe in DC you get to see/hear more on the Skins i.e. radio and local tv, but here where I live it's the internet for me. I don't go to redskins.com because I do not want sugar coated info, but to me it does seem as if this FO IS trying to make a change.

Congratulations MVDame! And well done Nate for organising a great, fun contest!

I thought Memphis had it, if only they could hit a bloody free throw!!!

I wonder if someone has told Chris Douglas-Roberts that Shawn Marion wasn't the best guy to base your shooting style on.

What's happened to registration? Has it been dumped?

kost, it was sad/hilarious that it came down to free throw shooting, the Tigers' Achilles heel, after all. I should have listened to the pundits.

Congrats on doing so well, "for an Aussie." How you keep up with our Yank sports so well is beyond me. A lot of free time, I guess.

Registration temporarily has been disabled. It will be back.

Believe me Cindy, I can't wait until I come back.

Hahaha Thanks Nate, but there was a lot of purple dress wearing in my selections.

Was good last night, had a bunch of mates over to watch the game with beer and pizza. I'm sure the neighbours won't be too pleased with the loud profanity which came from my place right about the time Chalmers dropped his 3. They don't call him Super Nintendo Chalmers for nothing!

beep beep

Sween you are waiting for this.

I am a robot.

/end_transmission....

I sure miss that donkey.

>.

What the heck is going on here?

This is very confusing. Who is who anymore?

I dare someone to steal my handle and try to imitate on me.

I DARE YOU!

Why does smoking pot make you a knucklehead? Seems to me it is pretty harmless.

The propaganda machines try to make it seem evil or like a gateway drug to meth. It's not.

Just a couple notes on your draft:

1)Kentwan Balmer (DT)
2)Trevor Law (DT)
3)Roy Schuening (OG)
3)Early Doucett(WR)
5)Colt Brennan (QB)
6)Jamar Adams (S)
7)Mike McGlynn (OG/OT)
7)Chris Harrington (DE)
7)Vince Hall (LB)

First isn't Law a Sexy pick for the 2nd Round? Secondly Brennan is not worth a 5th round pick, and I guarantee Mike McGlyn and Chris Harrington will be gone by the 5th if not the 6th round

What makes you think that I will still be on the board in the 7th round???
