Questions and Junk: Random Edition

Answer to Q1. Berry
I’m out.

1. Eric Berry, Safety, University of Tennessee – Because I think his presence will have the greatest immediate and long-term successful impact on the Kansas City Chiefs.
2. Thomas Jones - 2yrs $5M unbelievable!
3. I say 9 - We’ll have an amazing FA, Draft, Training Camp and Pre-season and we have a weaker than lately schedule.
4. Saints do not repeat as NFL Champions - for them it was a one shot deal.
5. Matt Cassel – Because J Cutler sux!!!!

1) Berry. nuf said. BPA + big need
2) it took us so freaking long to resign chambers
3) 7 or 8. anything else is either unnacceptable or unrealistic. weak schedule helps
4) no. tough thing to do in this league even with drew brees
5) Cassell. cassel will get sacked a lot less in 2010. and be able to find target. whether we’ll hold onto the ball will make the difference

Zing!!!

J/K

1. Berry- He presents the most value at a position of need. Anything else (unless Suh fell here) is a reach or does not fufill a team NEED

2. Tied, Jones listened when I told him that he wouldn’t get this kinda money elsewhere, and McDaniels listened to me when I said “Dude Andra Davis sucks just cut him. Who cares if the coach that made him a 200+ single season tackler is in your division.”

3. 7.. 8 max. We’ve gotten better but the 2011 year is when we’ll shine

4. Nope. I’ll go a bit further and tell you the Ravens will

5. Cassel. Right after we arm him with a rookie WR, Weis’ system operates on short passes which Matt Cassel is best at. Martz’s system operates on destroying careers

1. If a trade out is not possible i select Bryan Bulaga OT Iowa. He has small arms for a LT which is why i start him at RT and leave B. Albert where he is. drafting RT this high is not uncommon and the Rams did it last year with Jason Smith as well as the Bengals with Smith. Teams want bookend tackles and i believe Albert is a very good LT. O Cally would be great depth behind them.

2. That so many fans want a safety drafted in the top 5 in a draft that has very good starting safeties all the way into the 4th round.

3. I’m assuming we get a NT and a center in this draft and with those two upgrades alone i believe we move to an 8 win team.

4. They have all their players back so plausible but i don’t think it’s likely at all.

5. They will both throw 25-30 touchdowns but Cutler will have twice the interceptions of Cassel.

1) I’ll go with the crowd and say Berry. All accounts are that he is an exceptional playmaker, like Suh is at his position.
2) Getting Jones and resigning Vrabel. Nothing against Vrabel, but it seems odd for a team trying to develop young.
3) 8 Ws. The team won 4 last year with 8 close losses to beatable teams. They should be able to maintain their 4 and split the 8 if they are really improving. I could see anywhere between 6 & 10.
4) No. I think they caught lightning in a bottle last year. Their defense lived on t.o., and that’s too hard to depend on.
5) Cutler. He might also lead the league in INTs, but Martz will have him flinging the ball. I hope Cassel will have a better year, but I think Charles and Jones will take TDs from Cassel.

1.) Eric Berry. If this kid plays anything like he did in college, than why would you not select him regardless of need value or whatever. This kid plays his heart out EVERY play and determines where the quarterback is going to throw.
2.) Getting Thomas Jones at the price we did. And also resigning Vrabel. But I look at it in positive ways for multiple reasons. TJ can show our younger backs and backs to come how to prepare for games and how to disect film as well as provide a positive role model OFF and ON the field. Same with Vrabel.
3.) I say 9 wins. For some reason I think we are going to sweep our division or at least go 4 of 6, than with our schedule we have a real shot at gettin 5+.
4.) Definitely not. How they beat the Vikings… im still lost. I wont say lucky, but 8 out of 10 they dont make it…
5.) Matt Cassel — simply put, he has better weapons, although I did like Knox last year…

1. Jimmy Clausen (not a “man love” thing) just what I believe to be sound reasoning for several reasons. Multiple Superbowls are usually won by teams with QBs “raised in systems”. Weis has the knowledge of and relationship with this kid that no other OC & QB would have, a unique situation in time that would put us 3 steps ahead for the future.
We are going to be playing NFL football in 2-3 years right? Will Cassel? This pick has potential for long term success like few others have ever had.

2. Landing Weis & Romeo, what a mix with all things considered if this isn’t a path for success I don’t know what is. These guys all worked together and STILL have the DESIRE to do it again. Same line of thought as expressed above, familiarity allows folks to hit the ground running while other teams are learning who likes Grey Poupon at the lunch table.

3. I’m going way out and say 10, once this team gets the planets aligned they will kick some ass, big 2nd half of the season.

4. I have serious doubt, everybody deals with success differently. Team chemistry will change due to a couple wanting more credit than they thought they received for their contributions. Human nature at it’s worst usually makes repeats a bigger challenge than the first.

5. Cassel, he’s gonna have better receivers and a hot snot kid waiting in the wings. It could be just the pressure he needs to deliver his best. The guy is good but I believe it will take some pressure for him to really show us his best.

GO CHIEFS!

5. Cassel.

Doesn’t Haley look more robust than usual, and

Man I’m way too high to remember the questions by the time I find my answer again. I end up scrolling back up and then I stop and glance at other peoples answers, but can’t remember the questions, so the answer don’t make sense. I end up scrolling B A C K up again to look at the questions again so the answers make sense, only to suddenly remember I was answering a question and have a post comment box already started somewhere, but by the time I scroll down and find it well, it starts all over again.

This is awesome!
