If Orakpo is drafted over Cody, I will fry my dog and eat her.

I am the sweat not the swagger.

That before or after you ate your leg live on the internet?

We can forgive a man for making a useful thing as long as he does not admire it. The only reason for making a useless thing is that one admires it intensely. All art is quite useless.

Great. Just need to make sure I'm having nothing else planned for the Simon goes cannibalistic draft day party :up:

So in a role reversal, she'll be kibbles and bits?

Now I know what they mean about life being circular.

So far you have a pub, a consumed amputated leg (live on the internet), and a main course of fried K-9 on the line. May the force be with you. You have also probably set back canine/human relations about 500 years or so.

I've heard his weight might be a concern but that's it.

And this guy obviously doesn't know Philadelphia's draft history. They haven't had a first round pick in a while. Possibly since McNabb.

EDIT:

since 2006

Good God, Orakpo at four? I wonder if they actually catch film on these guys or do they just read what's on the internet like they did back in the 40's.

GBN is usually one of the sites that does indeed watch tapes, so I guess it's even more of a bummer ...

Definitely a bummer. We should all email the editor. :lol:

I've worked for Colin and he knows his stuff. But I just can't get into bed with Orakpo that high, especially with a monster like Cody falling way down.

They didn't have the internet in the 40's :tongue2:

60's-80's I mean, when Gil Brandt ran the Cowboys draft department and they introduced "the computer" to scouting.:wink2:

I thought that GBN had Tebow going to the Jets? Either I misread it or he switched it up and has Tebow going to the Vikes. Regardless, the more I think about it the more that I think that the Vikings, at the least, will be very tempted to take Tebow in the 1st. I'm also curious as to Parcells- if he drafted Scott Frost in the 3rd (as a DB) how high would he draft Tebow? I'm a Henne fan, but who knows. I also firmly believe that Tebow will be drafted as a QB and remain there- I don't see at all a position switch to FB or TE in his future, he's physical for a QB, not for the other positions.The man is a Quarterback.
