I just looked at the draft list and it was actually 8th when people started saying he would go...to Buffalo. That was the year they shocked everyone and took Donte Whitner that high.

Wasn't that Bunkley, though? I remember everyone had their boners for him and hoping and praying he or Ngata would fall to the Eagles. The Eagles were supposedly going to have to trade up if they wanted either of them. Everyone had Buffalo taking Bunkley at 8 and Baltimore was supposed to grab Ngata at 12 or 13 (don't remember exactly where they were). I remember Justice being the guy going in the mid round (12-20) that the Eagles would have a good shot at if neither of the DT's fell to them.

Most people thought Buffalo would choose between either Bunkley or Justice since they badly needed help on both lines.

New England, Tennessee, San Diego... the rich get richer.

The Eagles already have 12 frigging draft picks and they're probably going to get rid of half of them in trades as it is.

Feva · March 24, 2009, 07:50:13 AM

... and then get rid of half those draft picks in TC/preseason.

Opening day, 2009... those 12 draft picks will have turned into a backup G and a LS.

Kick BUTT!!!

supposedly Hakeem Nicks gained 14-16 pounds in 3 weeks from just laying around and not working out due to injury

Because of the enormous contract the Raiders gave Wilson.
