SAINTS! WTH!?!?

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Houston : Ridiculous, penny pinching losers. You pick Reggie Bush before VY, that's cool. You pick Mario Williams before both, you're just retarded and deserve decades of sub .500 records.
Even IF you have some sort of obsession with Williams or defense, you could have traded down and still got Williams, or you could have done a deal with the pick that would have gotten you two or three good players on the defensive side of the ball. HOUSTON SUCKS!!!

OPR, Reggie Bush will be Willie Parker to Deuce's Bettis. Not to mention the fact that they'll line him up outside.
I hope all the best for the Saints. Drew Brees kicks ass. Unfortunately, I think Sean Peyton sucks.

I can't believe they passed up Lendale White. He's got personality problems, but that locker room would clear them right up.

I think my Titans made some good, but risky picks. Be interesting to see you Young and White pan out together.

You guys have the steal of the draft. Believe me, from someone who's watched Vince play for two season live and in person, he's going to pan out completly.

I'm not saying he's never going to get injured, but he's no Michael Vick. He's Vick, only five inches taller, thirty pounds thicker, stronger, as fast, and with a more accurate arm and more intangible leadership characteristics.

And after the past few seasons of free agent losses and Ray Lewis getting older, the Ravens defense is average.

Ravens defense is still #2 in the NFL. And Vick is overrated. Dont get me wrong. I like Young. I wanted him as a Saint until we got Breeze. Just the more I look at him, I worry about his durability against the sack.
