    tampa bay might have to trade 1 of their big 3

    Oh, so after seeing a few goals you'd take Datsyuk over Lecavalier? Ok!

    The OFFICIAL I HATE RON WILSON THREAD...

    Huh? Lidstrom scoring a powerplay goal does nothing to discredit Wilson's statement. Right around the time of your post is when Thornton started dominating...right on cue!

    Aside from him just being old, another theory im thinking about is i remember Keyshawn made a few potshot remarks at his teammates during the draft. It was indirect stuff, like "We were in a situatation where Delhomme went down and we had nobody". I mean, I dont know if Weinke is still there and granted Keyshawn was right....but thats like a total slap in the face to the backup QBs. Or "We really need that 3rd reciever", again...its kinda like saying the other guys aside from himself and Steve Smith suck.

    Keyshawn Johnson released by the Panthers. For anyone who watched the draft and listened to hear Keyshawn talk about how much he wanted them to take Dwayne Jarrett, i have one word, HILARIOUS! I'd be shocked if the Titans werent ringing his phone off the hook as i type.

    Post-GAME 3 (4/30): Sharks 2, Red Wings 1 F

    The second half of the game was the Sharks team i was expecting at the start of the series. Constant pressure and exerting themselves physically. Thornton was an animal out there, he was playing 110% every shift and was dominant. When Joe's playing physical like that the Wings dont have an answer for him on defense. Also I havent read the whole thread, but anyone who's knocking Hasek is nuts.

    Its quite different i think. Stanton came into the draft as a fairly high regarded prospect, everyone had him in the top 5 for QB's (as high as 3rd) and he was projected to go in the 2nd round. Jeff Smoker was just a 6th round pick that St Louis took a shot with. (like drafting a Jon Navarre)

    Very good point, that didnt even dawn on me until earlier today at work. Having Rod Marinelli certainly helps to validate the pick. If we still had Mooch then yeah, it could be looked at as a crazy pick. Also the same can be said for Martz/Stanton. Apparently Millen was in love with Stanton, but just having Martz behind the scenes and knowing that he had to be in support of Drew as well makes me very comfortable with it. Im happy. And dont you wise asses go bringing up Martz and Jeff Smoker (just wanted to beat you to it ), this is different.

    Well it looks like whoever wrote the prediction of Francis going in the 4th-5th was just as wrong as Mel was about Patrick! Truth is, none of us here really know anything about these guys. We just have to wait and see what happens.

    Im certainly not abandoning the team if that was the impression you got, im as die hard as it gets. Although we didnt win it all last year, i just have a feeling now after a watching a month that our fate will inevitably follow the path of the 06 White Sox. If things continue like this next month, they need to do something to get the mojo back...cause theres definitely something missing so far. Never said he was useless like Langfeld. Corner outfield is a position where if someone's not playing well a change can easily be made. Its not a position of premium like SS. Monroe is ok but he's horribly inconsistent, i think we got everything we could out of him and now with another power righty in the lineup (well, whats SUPPOSED to be a power righty) in Sheffield, his time is nearing an end. He's guaranteed not to be here next year, he signed a 1 year deal i believe and Maybin is his replacement. So there's no need to be loyal to Monroe and keep riding it out if he continues to struggle.

    Who projected him 4th-5th? Kiper seemed to talk him up pretty good. David Harris doesnt fit the Lions defensive scheme from what i read, so thats why they didnt take him. Alexander plays corner and safety, two areas we could use help in as Kenoy Kennedy is on the decline. Nothing wrong with planning for his replacement, if he doesnt replace him this upcoming season that is. Alexander sounds like he can be a useful guy to me. The other guys i know nothing about. I cant believe Zabransky didnt get drafted though. And Matt Moore who Jaworski kept raving about all day, Im marking his name down to see just how smart Jaws really is.

    Wings meet fork? I think you should change the title to "Mouth meets foot" (not that i wasnt thinking the same thing as you at the time, i just wouldnt go and post it )

    I didnt see it either, I had the draft on for basically 10 hours yesterday, flipping over periodically only for the hockey game. I certainly got my yearly dose of Kiper. You know, i hate to say it but i think its over already! Zumaya struggling, the entire bullpen sucks...im really getting that post World Series hangover vibe from this team. Like what happened to Carolina and Edmonton in hockey. Not feeling the magic! They need to call some guys up or something...this team needs a spark in the form of some new young blood. Call up Cameron Maybin right now, and Dallas Trahern too. Sit Monroe.

    I know Furrey signed his contract expecting to be the #2 receiver. He cant be too happy about the Johnson pick. At least we finally have a guy who's name we cant pronounce with this Hawaain dude with the hyphen...its about time! I dont think we've had one since the WR Uweizuke (sp?!!) I aways wanted a Baja-Biamila type. Oh and big thumbs up to the Stanton pick, I love it.

    Randy Moss isnt the best example, I definitely dont feel that he's top 5 at his position anymore. His skills are on the decline. But all in all you do make some pretty good points. Yeah you can find WR's later, but it certainly aint easy! You could take a receiver with every pick 3-7 and still end up with crap. The Saints got lucky with Colston. What you're saying though almost helps prove my point. If good NFL QB's are so hard to find, then WHY waste high draft picks on such a gamble!!! Like i said, by having really good recievers you dont necessarily need a good QB. Calvin Johnson is easily the surest thing in this draft. If he doesnt blow out a knee (now why did i just say that... ) there is no way he's a bust. Now with Roy and Calvin, the Lions are in a situation where they can afford to have Kitna under center until Stanton's ready, he's certainly good enough to hit these guys.

    tampa bay might have to trade 1 of their big 3

    True, but we still have Sammy...and you can always sign and trade Maltby in the deal!!! On a serious note though, you're right in saying we wouldnt have the resources to get him anyway. But it just sucks knowing that there's officially a 0% chance in it ever happening cause of friggin Datsyuk's deal.
