DABEARSDABOMB Posted April 23, 2008 Report Share Posted April 23, 2008 10 special players. I think that means he either moves up or since he isn't going to get one of those guys opts to move down in the draft because he has a lot of guys graded in a similar spot (ie, maybe he has the Tackles graded all so closely that it would pay off to move down).

BearSox Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 My guess on the 10 "special" players are Ryan, McFadden, Dorsey, Long, Long, Gholston, Albert, Ellis, Clady, and Mendenhall. Other possibilities are Harvey, Williams, and perhaps McKelvin or Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madlithuanian Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 Barring that I think they'll both go higher...if they fall to the bears, one will be ours I think. I believe your first 10 look about right. If that is the case, Mendenhall or Clady may be in our future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or option 3, it is spin. You say you see 10 special players, and then after the draft, whoever you took at 14 just so happens to be one of them.

I think that is closer to "our" top 10. Albert is w/o question in my top 10, but I have a feeling he isn't there for Angelo. Frankly, I can see Otah grading higher for Angelo than Albert. Also not so sure Angelo has Mendenhal in his top 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoofHearted Posted April 24, 2008 Report Share Posted April 24, 2008 well angelo is a pretty good judge of offensive talent so, Grossman, Benson, (lucky with Olsen), Columbo, Wolfe, bradley... phew... its tuff to type all the future HOF Columbo was a good pick, and is proving that now, he just had shit luck with injuries while here. Wolfe and Bradley are unknown at this point regardless of whatever doom-and-gloom prognostications you would like to throw out there for them. Everything I've seen from Mark says he can be a very good receiver, too bad our staff screwed the pooch on that one last year, BIG TIME.
