Draft Day is over

The draft is finally conluded. There was a lot of late round deals that started today. Actually to many to account for. Example, Heisman Trophy winner Troy Smith of Ohio State, he got selected in the 5th round 174th overall. Ohio state played in the BCS title game against Florida Gators (whom won)and Chris Leak who has not been selected at all. Randy Moss was traded to New England from Oakland for a fourth round pick. A strange draft year.

Draft Update

Well the first round is over. The number one and two pick is not much of a surprise.

But what happened later surprised me. The Eagles traded down with Dallas in turn who traded down with Cleveland so they could pick up quinn_brady The Eagles selected a QB named
kolb_kevin do Andy Reid and the Eagles feel that the team is set enough that they couldn't just grab this guy at there normal first round pick. I don't know. I still have faith, it also leads me to believe that they are not comfortable with the QB position, maybe Mcnabb might not be 100% when he returns this season or if he can return this season. At least it wasn't another OL or DL player again. They also drafted a DE abiamiri_victor If you would like more up to the minute picks go to www.nfl.com/draft

Williams return?

Late April 1999, The Eagles selected Donovan McNabb QB in the annual draft(this years is next weekend). The fans that were present "BOOED" the selection, they wanted the Eagles to get in position to acquire Ricky Williams (or another "prime-time" running back). Well, since that time the Eagles had gone to 4 NFC Championship games and one Super Bowl. As for Ricky Williams, he had been suspended 3 times for substance abuse (marijuana, not performance enhancing drugs DUH). For the 2006-07 season he had to play in the Canadian League because he had been suspended a fourth time for the same thing incurring a one year suspension. Here is the latest developments(courtesy of:http://www.nfl.com/):

ST. LOUIS (April 19, 2007) -- Ricky Williams, who has applied for reinstatement in the NFL after a one-year suspension for substance abuse, could find a home with the St. Louis Rams. Coach Scott Linehan, the offensive coordinator when Williams played for the Miami Dolphins in 2005, said he would consider adding Williams to the roster as a backup. The Rams need depth behind Steven Jackson.
Williams, who will turn 30 in May, played in Canada last year and is eligible for reinstatement after April 27. Earlier this month Williams' agent, Leigh Steinberg, sent a letter asking that he be allowed to return to the Dolphins.
If that request was granted, the Rams would have to work out a trade with Miami.
Williams, a former Heisman Trophy winner at Texas, rushed for 1,853 and 1,372 yards in 2002 and '03 with the Dolphins before retiring shortly before training camp in 2004. He returned in 2005 as the backup to rookie Ronnie Brown, rushing for 743 yards and a 4.4-yard average.
