I'm guessing Maualuga to Detroit

Which would depress the crap out of me, because he’d be an outstanding get for them there.

no doubt

are they smart enough though?….they seem to avoid defense like no other….well besides denver.

They need an offensive tackle, don't they?

Stafford is going to be dead by Week 6.

Even now Stafford is having nightmares filled with cameo appearances by Raji and Allen.

My guess is that instead of lining Ronnie Brown behind the Center at times, they will put Pat White there and then there really is the option to pass or throw. But most times, Pennington will be under center.

I think it's almost a certainty that Beatty/Loadholt are there for us...

Dallas may take one of them, but I can’t see Cleveland taking yet another offensive player. If they do, Mangini may find himself forcefully ejected from the city of Cleveland by the Browns fan base, and the Eagles don’t need a tackle since they now have Jason Peters.

Charles Gordon

I think we all look at Charles Gordon a little differently after his season ending (foot facing the wrong direction) injury, but if he comes back as strong, could he be a possible move to CB if we aren’t able to sustain Antoine? He’s already fighting Sapp and now Paymah for the Nickel spot and who knows, maybe Paymah will turn out to be a stud. I think we have a little bit of depth at CB and might recommend some safety depth, RB depth in later rounds.

My assessment...

If I were to grade the two picks right now, here’s how I would.*

(*Grading a draft anytime before three years after it actually happened is ridiculous.)

1st Round – Percy Harvin, WR, Florida
Grade: D

I like Harvin as a football player… I really do. He supposedly tested positive for marijuana at the Combine, however, and to me that is ridiculous. How can a guy show up to the biggest job interview of his life with illegal drugs in his system? I’m not at all worried about any potential drug addiction, but rather with Harvin’s intelligence… or lack thereof.

Harvin may be a great playmaker and a great wide receiver, and I think that he will be. But to me, what’s worse than Harvin’s drug issues is the fact that Michael Oher was on the board. Oher, an offensive tackle, was ranked by some as a Top-10 prospect. When you consider the fear that the name “Ryan Cook” instills in Vikings’ fans, Oher needed to be considered unpassable.

2nd Round – Phil Loadholt, OT, Oklahoma
Grade: A

I’m very happy with this pick. By not drafting an OT in the first round, they almost had to in the 2nd round. Beatty would’ve also been a good pick. The Vikings drafted an NFL-ready player who will provide some much-needed protection for Sage/T-Jack. The only drawback is the number of penalties that Loadholt has the potential to commit.

DJ Moore would’ve also been a good pick, but I think OT was a bigger need than CB. The Vikings don’t have as big a hole in the secondary as they do on the offensive line, and an OT is the second-most important position on the football field.

Seems Harsh

I wouldn’t give Harvin a D… He’s still a tremendous playmaker and he does feel a need. I’d give him more of a C+/B- grade. Yeah, I loved Oher, but Loadholt is a sufficient replacement. Also, Oher may have been a top 10 talent, Harvin is a top 3 play maker. Equal trade there.

Again I like both our picks, giving Harvin a “D” is absurd. The guy smoked pot and now you want to label him a drug addict, sorry that is huge leap in logic.

Its not the fact he smoked pot he could of smoked crack and meth. Its the fact that he KNEW the combine and drug testing was coming up and he still smoked it anyway. It shows stupidity and bad decision making. That said I actually like the pick and the 2nd round pick.

by Zoxide on Apr 25, 2009 9:25 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

How did it affect him?

4.41 40 time. Can you ask for more? It was a top six finish at the position. He bench pressed 225 19 times. Could be a little stronger, but for a guy 5’11" 190lbs, not bad either. He didn’t participate in the other events. He ended up drafted 22 where a ton of people had him being selected.

It sucks his name has been associated with drugs, but it did him absolutely no harm. I wouldn’t be surprised if he had stayed clean all season and was enjoying his offseason freedom (freedom is used loosely since marijuana is still illegal).

by LoveHate on Apr 25, 2009 10:06 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

I dont think it is about how it affected him. I believe its more a factor of how he will behave in the future. To smoke it before the combine, knowing the would be tested, says one of two things..1) He’s a dumbass, which will lead to him getting into Pacman Jones type of trouble, or 2) he is addicted, which will lead to him being like Onterio Smith or Ricky Williams. Character issues tend to outweigh talent.
