I believe Walker did some med testing with New Orleans. Could the Packers #1 and Walker be part of a package for the #2 pick?

Bush as a Packer would be sweet. Still like the idea of drafting Hawk, or if he falls Ferguson, as well.

LOL Giants sign Jai Lewis of George Mason basketball fame

Hasn't played football since HS...but there's no loss if he's cut. I wouldn't mind trying him out as a #3 TE. He's 6'7", could anyone possibly stop him on a fade to the end zone?

Gates was the first in the mold. There will be other Gates... in fact, there will be people better than Gates. Because he set the standard. Eventually, there will be a seven footer at TE. Unblockable. Until his knees get shredded after one season.

LOL could you imagine though? Looking back at the NBA, like, imagine KG at receiver? I bet he had some nice straight-line speed and agility, since he's run point before. He has hands of glue, as he has caught people's shots in mid-air. And you put him against a 5'10" 190 pound cornerback...

Something like that will happen. And I will be so happy.

I'd have to disagree. I don't think there will ever be another TE coming out of the Gates mold. I think it was kind of a fluke thing. Maybe if a guy played both football and basketball at like a small college then maybe. I just don't see any of these other guys coming up and being a real succesful football player. I'd rather take an average WR, have him put on some weight and become a TE (USC is currently doing that with Fred Davis, moved him to TE as soon as he got into camp after being a WR in high school and it is working wonders)

I don't see it being a bad decision to go after basketball players. They are athletic enough and if they have the hands, they have more upside than most WR's in the draft.

But Gates really was the first. I mean Gonzo is a baller, too. You have to think... being tall isn't that hard... and the rest can be learned. What Gates has... it's not as hard as a lot of other positions, I would imagine. Especially since in the last 10 years, the TE position has just exploded. The pass-catching tight end is becoming an every-team occurrance. The number that have made the pro bowl the past several years, we had chamberlain in MN, franks in GB, now there's Wiggins in MN... Sharpe, Gates, Eric Johnson, Putzier, Gonzo, Dallas Clark, Marcus Pollard, Watson, Graham, Coates, Walls, McMichael, Witten, Crumpler, K2, Jolley... like, Jolley got traded for a 1st rounder and he went on to suck. Johnson I think made a pro bowl and now Vernon Davis gets drafted to replace him? Chamberlain made the pro bowl and hasn't played since...

The TE position is overrated.

There will definately be another Gates soon. It will just have to come on a team where the WRs are so bad that the TE is the preferred receiver like KCand SD

What's the deal with the Saints drafting Reggie Bush? What about Deuce? Is he gonna stick around?

That's why I said Gates was really the first of his kind. So you can't say there won't be another Gates... because there has only been one.

That's like saying there will never be another Bronko Nagursky. I mean, how do we even know? The RB position has evolved light years since then; Just like the TE position is evolving every year, because of Gates.

Reggie Bush played along a running back like Deuce Mccallister when he was at USC and he did pretty well there

But aren't they both on big contracts? And I'm guessing one of 'em is gonna be disappointed about their playing time being as they are both good enough to be 1st choice (just an englishman here, don't go too rough)

No that's a perfectly valid opinion.

However, there is method to this madness:

Rookies generally can't handle a full workload in their first season. They need to be eased into it, or they will crash like the Cadillac did last year. Ronnie Brown kept getting better because he shared the workload with Ricky Williams. Cedric Benson just LOL. I think he's dead.

Anyway, on the other end of the spectrum... you have a major injury like Deuce had, you want to ease in as well. So basically they have 75% of Reggie Bush and 75% of Deuce McAlister, that gives them a good 1-2 punch. By the end of the season, one of the two will be at 100% and will be ready to start next season. THEN, the trade talks can begin. Maybe even if Deuce blows up in the early season, we could see a trade by week 6. But since they're both not ready for the full workload, they'll work for the job. Or they'll keep both players, since Miami did it and plans on keeping Ricky.

All I know is, ROFL at Michael Bennett. :foc: you picked the wrong team to sign with bro.

Hasn't Deuce had like 2 major injuries in the last 3 years? He can't have much left now.

His first one wasn't horrible I don't think? He came back after a few games... as a HB, you'll miss a few games now and then, and you can destroy your leg and come back for several more years, like J Lewis and Edge James.

Yeah I just looked around and he had a high ankle sprain that apparently just wouldn't go away.

He picked up a few minor shoulder and knee ones in college as well, from what I can see. Dunno, I'm probably exaggerating, but they're surely tempting fate by having him *and* Bennett around.

I didn't mean another TE like Gates, they're will be plenty of players with a similiar style. I highly doubt there will ever be another player to come out of college basketball though. Really can't see another non-college football playing basketball player coming into the NFL and dominating like Gates is.

Well shit, LOL, any power forward in college is being picked up to try out at TE. Throw enough shit at the wall, eventually it will stick.
