    Re: Av's Preseason Picks

    I agree with you on the Bolts, I have them getting to the SuperBowl and being a fantastic team if they stay healthy.

    Not buying the Vikings yet though, not sold on T Jackson at all. Jared Allen was a nice pickup though and should help. But last season they had the #1 rush offense and #1 rush defense, and didn't make the playoffs, how many team do that? They could very well do that again and still miss the playoffs.

    I'm going SD vs Philly (if McNabb stays healthy, big if though)

    AFC

    1. San Diego
    2. New England

    3. Indy
    4. Pitt

    WC: Jax
    WC: Houston

    San Diego advances

    NFC

    1. Dallas
    2. Seattle

    3. Green Bay
    4. Tampa

    WC: Philly
    WC: St. Louis ( :

    Philly advances

            I would like to find a good top 100 list I could print and check off as we go so I could see who all is left. I don't need the fluff about the players just a list.

            The Flow Chart of Doom
            by AvengerRam_old
            It starts at the top...

            THE OWNER
            She's ill now, so obviously she
            can't do anything to impact the
            team's success. But even when
            she was well, does anybody think
            she added anything? Perhaps she
            had a passion for the attention that
            winning brings, but not for the
            passion required to bring a winner.
            |
            |
            THE FRONT OFFICE
            Manned by individuals who know the
            cost of everything, but the value of
            nothing. Their talents are in business,
            not football. Add a substantial helping
            of ego, which has prevented them from
            bringing in a true GM, and talent evaluation
            has become a "blind squirrel" scenario. And
            who's going to change this? Certainly not
            the current owner.
            |
            |
            THE COACHING STAFF
            You get what you pay for. Pay for top notch
            coaches, that's what you get. Hire from the
            bargain rack, and sometimes you get lucky and
            find a gem, but more often, you get what we have
            now... a mess. The coaching staff is there to get
            the most out of whatever talent is available. That
            is not happening. And who's going to change this?
            Certainly not the "bottom line first" front office.
            |
            |
            THE TEAM
            Talent levels in the NFL these days are fairly
            close, even between the top and the bottom teams.
            As a result, no team is ever too far away from rising
            to the level of a playoff team. The Rams have been,
            it seems close to that level for years. But who will get them
            there? Certainly not the coaching staff, which lacks the
            ability to maximize the talent we have. Certainly not
            the front office, which knows money but not talent.
            Certainly not the owner, who adds nothing to this team.

            It all starts at the top for the Rams. Scott Linehan is a symptom of an overall problem that won't be corrected until the FLOW CHART OF DOOM is cut from the top. Get a new owner, hire a true football GM, bring in a new coaching staff, enhance the talent...

            That, my friends, is the only formula that will bring sustained success.

            *Final* AR Complete Round 1 Mock
            by AvengerRam_old
            This is my story, and I'm sticking to it!

            1. Houston Texans: Reggie Bush, RB, USC
            Don't be fooled by reports of negotiations with Mario Williams. He's just a pawn to get Bush's price down a bit. Bush is the "can't not take this guy" prospect in this draft.

            2. New Orleans: Mario Williams, DE, NC State
            Saints will get a guy who will be an impact rookie, and will a Pro Bowl selection within a few years. OTs in the NFC South will hate this pick.

            3. Tennessee Titans: Vince Young, QB, Texas
            For months, everyone has tried to find a reason to downgrade Young. The bottom line is, he's an exceptional performer on the football field, which is all that really should matter.

            4. New York Jets: Vernon Davis, TE, Maryland
            D'Brickashaw Ferguson would be the safer and, perhaps, the more logical choice, but the Jets are still a Broadway team, and Davis will make a lot more highlight film plays.

            5. Green Bay Packers: A.J. Hawk, OLB, OhioState
            With Williams gone, they will select the top remaining defensive player in the draft. Will be an instant impact player for the Packers.

            6. San Francisco Niners: Michael Huff, DB, Texas
            Niners will be a bit thrown by the selection of Davis at number 4, as he was likely their target. Huff will be touted as the next Ronnie Lott, though he's a different type of player.

            7. Oakland Raiders: Matt Leinart, QB, USC
            Leinart would have been the first pick in 2005, but he'll drop to number 7 in this draft. No problem – with his Hollywood image, he'll make up the money in endorsement contracts.

            8. Buffalo Bills: D'Brickashaw Ferguson, OT, Virginia
            Bills are surprised by Ferguson's fall, and will eagerly snatch him up. He'll start as a rookie, obviously.

            9. Detroit Lions: Antonio Cromartie, DB, FSU
            There always seem to be surprises coming out of Detroit, and this year is no exception. Cromartie's stock has been shooting up in recent weeks following his workout.

            10. Arizona Cardinals: Jay Cutler, QB, Vanderbilt
            Many teams (not the Rams, though) will try to trade up for Cutler but, in the end, he'll head to the Southwest to be Kurt Warner's short-term understudy.

            11. St. Louis Rams: Haloti Ngata, DT, Oregon
            Pickett, Lewis, Kennedy… will four times be the charm? Ram fans hope so, and Ngata is certainly a good prospect. Maybe the best prospect of the bunch.

            12. Cleveland Browns: Brodrick Bunkley, DT, FSU
            Fast rising Bunkley will be a welcome addition in Cleveland. They would have been happy with Ngata too.

            13. Baltimore Ravens: Winston Justice, OT, USC
            Will be a good RT initially, and will be the heir apparent to Jonathan Ogden, who is now 32. A good value pick.

            14. Philadelphia Eagles: Chad Jackson, WR, Florida
            While Eagles didn't miss TO's BS, they missed his...
