Dhani sucks really bad.  I can't see how Andy keeps him around if they think Go-go-cong can start.

I think the more likely scenario is that another veteran will be brought in to help until he is ready to start.  I don't see Dhani starting under any circumstances though.

I can appreciate wiggy's argument to a degree.  I'm not sympathetic to "worst pick ever,' per se.  But I can see how someone could see the pick that way.

I've read up on him since the draft, and I can't say I'm in love with the pick given what else was available.  But whatever.  What do I know?

Still, I'm in the "I'll wait and see" camp.  Not the "I can't wait to see" camp.

I wasn't thrilled with the pick until I knew they were going to make him a SAM LB.  The last 2 years with an undersized douchebag at SAM really have made long for the days of Emmons.  I think this guy is definately a different player than Emmons, but he could offer more in the long run.

Just pointing laughing, and living it up while watching the Miami Heat stink it up.

I saw that and was about to post something about it.  Good thing I checked to see if someone else beat me to it.  I can only hope he's being sarcastic.

QuoteJets | Team might have traded away Gocong
Tue, 2 May 2006 11:55:16 -0700

Randy Lange, of the Bergen Record, reports the New York Jets might have committed a gaffe when they traded their No. 71 overall draft selection to the Philadelphia Eagles for their No. 76 selection and a seventh-rounder. The Eagles picked DL Chris Gocong with the selection, after showing no pre-draft interest in him. The Jets had visited with the swift defensive end and might have been considering picking him. Gocong said, "I was talking to my agent and we actually expected the Jets to draft us with the 71st pick, but we didn't really know if it was going to happen."

ice grillin you

Pres. Bush so I could say "Great job Mr. President

this pick just got a whole lot worse

I wasn't thrilled with the pick until I knew they were going to make him a SAM LB

why does this make the pick more enticing...just because the sand artist sucks?...or because andy and heckert say he can play SAM....if andy can turn a 265 lb div 1-aa DE into an nfl SAM in one training camp then he really might be god...however ill believe it when i see....
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word
