tyson jackson
if somehow we can trade our 1st for a 1st and 3rd and then select tyson jackson OR Michael Johnson (would rather have him) later in the first and select another need in the 3rd (BIG RB) that would be a pretty good thing…maybe we should trade sage rosencopter and get we can get for him

Excited!!!
I am just overly excited at the prospect of a Draft Day Trade that Smithiak would be sure to pull of for a couple of extra picks. I am in Iraq now due back to the States in 3 weeks and I’m planning on attending the Draft Day Party at Reliant Stadium. So I think if Brown or Maualuga arent there at 15 we trade down to the mid 20s and get either Johnson or Cushing if he is still there. I am loving the S from W. Michigan in the second though.
If you aint Texans then F@!# You!!!!
The American people owe a debt of gratitude which can never be repaid to all of the men and women in the armed forces
who are risking their lives in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere to make America a safer place to live. God bless you houstonbola and I hope you arrive home safe and sound.
If we can move down, add a 3rd or 4th rounder, and still get Johnson, Cushing or Tyson Jackson with our #1, and add Louis Delmas, the WMU FS in the second that would be a fine start to the ’09 draft. I think SS Patrick Chung from Oregon may also be a decent selection in the 2nd. Both could provide a decent balance of run support and pass coverage.

Jackson?
I keep reading two things about him—1, that he’s Anthony Weaver, and 2, that we might take him. This makes absolutely no sense to me.
In fact, I’m a bit confused altogether about our need at defensive end. Initially, I thought we would look for a smaller speed rusher in the mold of Dwight Freeney. John McClain said the same thing. Now, people have us keeping Mario at right end, and looking for a big left end. This doesn’t make any sense to me. We have that in Anthony Weaver. If we can find a speed rusher, move Mario to the left side where he’s shown he can still dominate.
Tyson Jackson is currently the 3rd ranked DE on Scouts Inc, #19 overall
Draft Tek also has him as the 3rd ranked 4-3 DE behind Brown & Orakpo. If he is no better than Weaver then he would be a bust. I think either Jackson or Johnson would have to be an upgrade over Weaver, but who the hell am I? Just a fan with an opinion. Gotta have trust that Smithiak will continue to draft effectively.
