I'm pretty sure Drake is in the bad part of Des Moines, like 2 blocks away you're in the ghetto... Why would you want to go to such a school? Lol

More drugs around means more competitive pricing.

Got an $8,000 scholarship to go and they were a respected journalism school at the time.

I've learned to not get attached to names or positions because the first round is almost always a head scratcher in recent years. I'm just hoping we opt for someone with actual football talent and not just reaching for exceptional athletes. I do have some names I'd love to see get called when it is our turn, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

This is a great class for our needs and I'm optimistic for potentially a really great final TT draft.

This is the part where you share those names... :lol:
Love to see Takk or Conley or Humphrey in the 1st.
Super intrigued by Kevin King as well. His size and combine numbers are insane, but I actually worry about a guy with that kind of length. Not sure what to make of him.
Can't help but want TJ Watt, but he'll be gone before we pick in the 2nd.

We had a chance at Watt before he blew up the Combine. BPA on defense for any position aside from DT is fine with me. Any of the corners that fall to us will be sufficient. Doubt King or Conley will drop that far, but you never know. Not sold on Peppers. Would be a nice all-around player to replace Hyde, but I'm worried about the transition to the big leagues. That being said, the only reason I see picking offense in Round 1 is if McCaffery falls or something crazy like that.

Trading up for Charles Harris is my dream scenario :drool:

AJ Bartholomew Hawk has officially retired from the NFL as a member of the Green Bay Empacadores. 11 healthy and helmet tossing seasons in which he became the teams leading tackler and broke the most in chin straps of any player in NFL history.
