thatd be great.

[TampaBay012286]

the only way branden albert goes anywhere near the top 10 is if the patriots take him @ #7... if that doesnt happen, he will go in the mid 20s at best

[Miller4Prez64]

No way the Bucs take Talib after admitting to marijuana. The Bucs have been known to draft high character guys.

rumor has it the bengals have their eyes on him :p

[Dr.Doom]

I think the Chiefs will grab Albert before New England can lay their hands on him. They need a good OL, and Albert can play OG and OT and can play the run. This will make LJ better and give Croyle more protect so he can develop a bond with Bowe.

New England will grab Keith Rivers, because Brushi and Seau are older then the Franchise and Thomas is starting to age. They need to get younger at LB, even though CB will be the smarter choice. I'm sure Belichick will now what he is doing.

Appearnant, you dont remember Warren Sapp O.o....He dropped to us in '95 becuase of Character Issues...So why would we pass up this Talented player because of minor conerns. He openly admited to it...so the kid cant be a "Adam Jones" character.

I didn't know our current front office was running the show in 1995. :rolleyes: Btw, Talib is nowhere near the prospect Sapp was. Also, Talib admitted to it AFTER he lied to NFL teams about it.

Regardless...The kid is very Talented and can easily develop into a Shutdown Corner. He will become a fantastic replacement for Ronde Barber, and will keep our Defense a monster for years to come.

I'm not saying Talib sucks, but the Bucs probably will pass since Gruden/Allen like high character guys in the draft.

[Clayton80future]

For the record, I believe Gaines Adams admitted to smoking dope last year.

[Miller4Prez64]

He did, but he didn't lie about it and supposedly is currently clean (nobody can say for sure) and Talib has dropped out of the first round in some mocks now after his lie.

even tho he has admited it i doubt he falls and if hes there we take him. in my opionin best overall cb in the draft.

[Dr.Doom]

He is a talented kid, and I'm sure Monte would love a player like him. We are in depressate need of another Franchise Cornerback.Once Barber retires(which could be at the end of this season), We'll only have SAmmy Davis, Marcus Hamilton, and Torrie Cox under contract, as Eugene Wilson only signed a 1-year contract, and Phillip Buchanon only has 1-year remaining on his current contract.

Aqib Talib could easily a Top 3 Cornerback in this league after 2-3 years.

[warrensappisgod]

On the right track with Trae Williams, Anthony Collins, and Adrian Arrington. But get Devin Thomas in there, Talib out. And for christ's sake replace Royal with a DT. ;)

[h-town baller]

You made an error with Calais Campbell at 26. Campbell is a defensive end not a tackle.

[Pantera Canes]

I don't know, I think we need a corner, but he does have character issues going on. I think there is suppose to be some other issues as well.

What do you have against Royal?

[Buccs99]

Brandon Flowers > Aqib Talib

best-fit cover 2 corner in the draft.

[ImAWalkingCorps]

Regardless...The kid is very Talented and can easily develop into a Shutdown Corner. He will become a fantastic replacement for Ronde Barber, and will keep our Defense a monster for years to come.

Doom, he was beaten like a rented goalie by Jordie Nelson and by Missouri. I don't know about shutdown, however I do like the Anthony Collins pick, but really only in the 3rd round.

[Dr.Doom]

Brandon Flowers would be too much of a reach at no.20. Sure Flowers would fit the "Tampa 2" alittle better then Talib, but The Bucs really only play Zone-Coverage during 2nd-3rd and long. Most of the time, the Bucs play Man-to-man, and Talib is a better Man-to-man player then Flowers.

Anthony Collins is a OT that really caught my attention, really fast. When I was doing research on Aqib Talib, I got to see alittle Video-Tape on Collins...and wow. I think we might be gone by our No.53 Pick, switch can lead to us taking that needed depth at DL (Lawrence Jackon, Dre Moore, or Trevor Laws), but if Petitgout gets wrecked again...then We have 2 great OT backups in Donald Penn and Anthony Collins. With this FO, we've had good success with OL in the first 2 rounds (Davin Joseph, Jeremy Trueblood, and Arron Sears), so Collins might be another fantastic prospect.

Eddie Royal is the great threat on Offense and Special Teams that Gruden wants, and he will develop very well in our Offense. Getting to learn 1-2 years with Galloway, Hilliard, Garcia, and Dunn will really benfit him.

Trae Williams will make Monte a very happy man, as Williams is really just a lesser version of Mike Jenkins, who Kiffin is drooling over. This is no insult to Williams though. He is a very complete DB and has alot of room for improvement, With a major upside.

Adrian Arrington is a WR the Bucs will workout soon, and is a nice route runner. He isnt a "Great Vertical Threat" WR, which most GMs are looking for, but he can catch and run very good. I think he has a bright future ahead of him.

I'd love to grab a Defensive Lineman somewhere. There is a good possibilty, that around Round 4-5...we might trade down alittle, and we may be able to grab a raw prospect to give us alittle depth if we cannot grab of the More Notable names in Round 1-3.

[Bucko40]

Drafting 2 CB, 2 WR is Brillant draft strategy. Especially when the Bucs need help on the DL and LB. Carter and Hovan are getting up there in age. A DT or DE in the 1st is more likely if you ask me.

I think the 2nd or 3rd round is where the Bucs will go CB.

We done need alot of help at LB, at this moment. We signed 2 nice, young Linebackers (McCoy, Lehman) and with all the talent we already have, our LB Corp is set for now.

As for DL...I do think we'll address this during the draft. The 2nd round pick is the dark horse. I love Anthony Collins as our OT and could help soldify an already, young, talented OL. However...I believe if Trevor Laws(DT - Notre Dame), Dre Moore(DT - Maryland) or Lawrance Jackson(DE - USC) are there at no.53, then I would grab them 100% over Collins. However...maybe draft boards have all 3 of them going within the first 45 picks...where as Collin as been seen falling into early Round 3.

We need Receivers and Cornerbacks the most, because unlike our DL and LB, we dont have Young, Talented Depth at those positions. (DL - Greg White, Gaines Adams, Greg Peterson | LB - Quincy Black, Adam Hayward, Matt McCoy). At WR, we only have Paris Warren, Michael Clayton and Maurice Stovall once Galloway and Hilliard retire, and as for CB...We only have Torrie Cox, Sammy Davis, and possibilty Phillip Buchanon.

Over the next 1-2 years...We will be looking for WR, CB, DL, RB, and QB. With the QB, RB, and DL class weak during our picks...I have to address the WR and CB positions, which have rich talented, raw prospects for low value.

[h-town baller]

Doom could you see the jets taking matt ryan if he's on the board? The jets qb situation is pretty bad.

Could I? Maybe. I Doubt he'll be there as Atlanta needs a Quarterback, and why pass up on the Best one in the draft. The Jets have 3-4 people they could pick up...Jake Long, Glenn Dorset, Vernon Gholston, or Matt Ryan.

[warrensappisgod]

What do you have against Royal?

Nothing, he's a good returner. I just think we have bigger needs than that at this point.
