<![CDATA[Eric Berry Returns]]>It will be interesting focusing on Eric Berry & T.J. Ward this weekend. Berry would have probably been our pick had he been there when we were on the clock, instead we used a 2nd rounder on Ward. I'm not complaining ... we shall see how it all pan's out.

I know that I will be focusing on that position come Sunday.

The guy I would be worried about is Jamaal Charles. He's the real threat. He can take it to the house on any play. Tremendous game speed.

We obviously not only would have been drafting the best athlete on the board HAD ERIC BERRY BEEN STILL ON THE BOARD, but also would have been drafting a position-of-need, as we still took a safety(s) in that draft.

I liked Berry, but at the same time was a little curious about his weak finish at Tenn. Today? Today I am kind of viewing Berry as a Courtney Brown type ... maybe over-billed, a great kid, but maybe doesn't have the tiger in his belly everyone thought. It would be the first time in the new era if we lucked out and got the better safety in Ward. Let's hope so.

Don't they both essentially play the same position however? If we had gotten Berry, the Browns would not have selected another safety again that early, would they?

As it is, they did take 2 safeties. Ward and Asante.

He was probably just stirring the pot. At any rate, I'm looking forward to the contest and it will be something to watch on Sunday.

Are you implying that we could have had Berry somehow? He was gone off the board when we drafted at 7. You used the word "instead" when we took Ward in round 2, but there was no instead. You say your not complaining. Well, I hope not, cause we had no chance to get him in the first place.

We may have gotten the best Safety and the best CB in the draft.

CB's are more valuable to a team and Haden has looked the part so far, If we could go back and had a choice between the too, I would still go Haden over Berry. Then you add that we could draft a stud like Ward in the second and it really makes the choice easy.
