Tomlinson, Gates, and M. Williams is just ridiculous talent at the skill positions.

yes. It would be one of the biggest steals ever IMO if williams fell that far. And same with rodgers. When the hell is he gonna go now? 15 at the earliest?

Maybe we can address the MLB postion now that we took a RB

 

WTF, Benson would have been there if we traded down and got a 3rd or another 2nd pick.. This is the first time I can not praise JA for his draft pick. But, we all should have seen this coming with RON Shoop/John Turner we need a quality RB who can run the ball 3yards and fall down. The idea of high scoring offense is a thing of the past.. So much for a change.. Same Bears

Why is everyone down on Benson, guys we just got a PRO BOWL RB in next 2 to 3 yrs,you can save this post. Get a WR in 2nd round and have a great start to draft. :bringit

i agree with you.

if williams wasn't on the board, i would have been happy with benson.

but he was on the board. thats the problem. and now hes on a division rival

 

there's no way you could have seen williams going all the way to lions, maybe the vikings but not the lions, and either way the vikings were going to get a pretty good receiver in williams or williamson

Well I think Mike Williams would've been more useful than Benson who's going to be at most splitting time with Jones until the end of the season. Unless you're dumping Jones, then Benson doesn't make as much sense as Williams. Hopefully Jones is dumped and Turner uses his guy the whole season. Anyone have any ideas on who we pick 2nd round?

And yet he broke down halfway through the year.

 

When Thomas Jones puts it all together for one season, let me know.  Benson put up the best numbers out of the three backs -- Caddy, Brown, and Benson.  I could see you guys being upset about not having Mike Williams, but that's not to say Benson isn't a solid player.

Yep, not to mention that Benson is by far the best blocker of the three RB's. That's a huge plus as well.

How about Odell Thurman 39th? Solid LB out of Georgia. He might fit in niceley next to BU and Briggs!

i think we have to draft a wr. its such a big need, and since we dont have a third round pick, we should draft a wr now

Benson's interview after makes you feel a little less good about the pick but it's not a bad one. I do worry that Williams is going to really try to make Chicago and Minnesota big time victims for passing on him. I feel that they should go outside linebacker and I feel that they will. Lovie heavily hinted at that the other day. I think they will wait until the third for a reciever or move up into the end of the second if they really like someone. Angelo's drafts in the first have been questionable but he's done well in rounds 2-4 the last few years.
