Sorry to have to tell you this, but you're going to have a terrible birthday.
A rusty Roethlisberger coming back from suspension or a Dennis Dixon-lead Steeler team? I'll take my chances even if it is at Whines Field.

I see where Smell Kiper has Tebow going to Minnesota at pick #30 in the 1st round.

Is it a given that Dixon would be the starter? Maybe I'm wrong in assuming the nod might actually go to Batch.

Actually, I would think it would be Byron Sandwich.

I'm also getting the sense that the Browns might not be as high on Colt McCoy as they have let many believe.

Call me crazy, but I think he'll be a very good pro....a Matt Ryan-type. I just think the whole Brady Quinn garbage has Browns fans scared...but you can't really blame them.
I'm with you. I think he is and will be the best QB to come out of this draft. Sure, he may need an attitude adjustment once he enters the league, but he has the physical tools and knowledge of the game to be successful. You have to wonder how he would be perceived if he came out of a different school.

I've heard they will NOT move up into the lower 1st to get him if forced to. Who the hell knows though at this point. So much changes from day to day.

I to DO NOT feel the need to move up and lose picks to get him. We have way to many needs/holes to fill. If anything we need to unload a few players for more picks.

I think something rather big goes down either today or darft day regarding a trade for Roethlisberger. IMO he could land in St Louis on draft day and the Squeelers could be on the clock at 7:30.

i think perriloux COULD be the best QB in this class. He might have to go to the CFL just to play a few years and get teams willing to take a chance on him. but I think the top of this QB class is weak, and the middle is not as strong as people want to believe.

ability has never been the issue with Perriloux, if he's grown up since his debacle of a college career at LSU (seems to have from the Jacksonville State coaches) I think he's the bestin this class.


Flame on I know I deserve it.

I to thought he had NFL talent when at LSU, but I've lost track of him after he went to Jax. St.

Sorry, but I seriously doubt Big Ben goes for the #1 overall pick.

The Steelers would have to include their #1 and maybe even next year's #1.

Reghi had a guy on WKNR yesterday from the Pittsburgh ESPN affiliate. This guy seemed to think that Ben could still be moved. I highly doubt it but the Steelers are supposedly entertaining offers.

If you're Cleveland do you offer #7 for Ben? ESPN just reported Pitt may move him for a top 10. Allthough not likely to the same division.

No. I think it's a moot point though because even if he wasn't in the division, the Browns are trying to remove "problem children", not add them. I expect Shaun Rogers & Chris Jennings to be gone.

Rams have already said they have no interest in Big Ben earlier today per Schefter's Twitter.

If Big Ben played for any of the teams in the top 10, he would be nothing special at all.

He's headed to Oakland and Al Davis.

I'd put money on it.

Looks good to me. Getting Berry & McCoy without giving up any picks would be considered ideal.

I don't know much about the players, but the 3rd round fills the other major needs with: WR, CB & RT.

Practice I believe starts next Friday.
