There are so many Buckeyes in this draft they could still pick one up in Rd 2.

@texasag1969 said:

You can't draft them all...

As soon as I heard Miller was retiring I thought, "There goes Hunter."

At least his choice would keep us from seeing another Buckeye in black and yellow.

The more you look at his time, the more Tom Heckert looks better and better, in retrospect. Richardson/Weeden aside, obviously. We're on the verge of losing 3-4 starters from his 2012 draft. Gordon has off-field issues of course but is a hell of a player. Billy Winn is serviceable. from the 2011 draft , Jordan Cameron, Buster Skrine have signed big contracts elsewhere. Some very good picks in there. In 2010, Haden is a top CB and Ward just won a SB.

Just missing a QB.

I would hope that the brain trust has already completed their analytics pre-lems by the time they head off for the combine and the pro days afterwards. They should by then already be zeroing in on potential targets for what they have decided they need most. Same goes for free agency. As soon as that window opens they should already know with whom they want to get serious and how seriously ($$) they want to bid within the framework of the cap space. They are earning their keep as we speak.

The good news is that Hue has already met with a couple of the QB's at the senior bowl and I d expect more of the same to happen at Pro days and the combine.....

Nope....skipped his pro day, as well as Bortles and Bridgewaters....apparently every team in the league was there, except us and Chicago......though we did have a private work out with him.....million articles on it...here's one...

We didnt.....except for Manziels, which they have been screaming about ever since.....but, unless he was drunk, it wouldnt have mattered.....

We were at JM's... in force as I recall.

I remember watching it live... and in color...

I learned to never consider a QB who does his Pro-Day in his helmet...

franchise QB first pick i don't give a fuck what people say. yeah broncos won the super bowl and their d was the major reason why but could you see a manziel leading that team to victory? hells fucking no. someone old with brains who knew when to sit down and hand off was an also big contributor to their win.

and then there's the balls in her face. oooops!

@opal312 said:

probably should...but he has the making of more sb appearances in his future with the broncos..they already have a pretty damn good replacement for peyton..we, we don't have shit...on both sides of the ball...

Id agree that FA is less of a gamble.....or, at least, should be.....BUT, if you make huge assumptions, then it can be trouble...

Examples: Assuming that a Housler can become something he never was......or.....Assuming that an old guy like Bowe would suddenly return to the form he had several years before.....

Those are gambles teams shouldnt take.....and the reason is that they aren't getting paid rookie money while we find out....

LOL!
