    Not sure about Barnes. Reports before he got hurt were that he looked pretty stiff-hipped. And I worry about the bad shoulder injury he suffered:

    Barnes, who injured his left shoulder Oct. 18 against Wake Forest, is nearly two weeks removed from surgery. The initial diagnosis sounded like a complete destruction of the joint --- torn labrum, torn rotator cuff, fractured collarbone, fractured shoulder blade. Turns out it wasn't nearly so bad. "Once he got in there, the rotator cuff healed itself in that week and a half," Barnes said. "The shoulder blade healed itself. They had to put a pin in my collarbone and they pulled up my biceps to anchor my shoulder so it'll never slide out of place again." That's a lot better than originally anticipated. As Ralph Friedgen would say, better to be pleasantly surprised than bitterly disappointed. Barnes begins his rehab process tomorrow, and will be out of a sling in another two weeks. While he could be back for the Senior Bowl if he really pushes things, it seems certain he'll be ready to go for the NFL Draft combine and other workouts well after New Year's. - Washington Times

    A thing to add about Pioli: like Savage, he tends to draft DB's with elite short shuttle times.

    James Sanders is a good example of that. Though he ran a mediocre 4.65 40 at his pro day, he also had an incredible short shuttle time (4.02). Pioli drafted him in the 4th Round, and he's developed into a key member of New England's secondary (and an interesting FA option for us this offseason).

  • Round 1. Rey Maulagala-LB

    Round 2. Javon Ringer- RB

    Round 3.(Trade Derek Anderson to Bears) CB

    Round 4. Alex Boone- OT

    We have no 5th round pick

    Round 6. WR or DE

  • These things are a waste of time, but they're also fun to put together.

    I'm assuming that DA is traded for a 3rd Round pick and Winslow is traded for a 2nd and a 7th.
