Speaking of NFL upstarts : Your boy, TO has been unusually quiet this off season Level. He was in Philly a day or so ago, but he wouldn't say why and hung up on the reporter. Maybe mending fences with McNabb?

We < Patriots> had the last pick three out of four years and didn't do too badly. Altho in your case, with Bill Polian at the helm, I would be a little skeptical too. He needs to keep his nose out of it and leave it to Dungy and company.

mb, I would be stunned if TO and McNabb could sit in the same room for ten minutes lol. I keep hoping I'll wake up and he'll be playing for the Toronto Arganauts or something.....

minnetar, there are always gems to be had at many points in the draft, that's one thing I love about it .

Status: offline 		I wasn't surprised at any of the FA you lost this year. Smart move tagging Freeney. Rhodes was gone with or without the charges. Once you win a SB, each players worth goes wayyyyy up on the free market. You guys just didn't have the cap room to keep many of your better  players. I hang out on one of the Colts MBs and this has been a discussion for a couple of years. You had some of your best defensive players coming up for FA all at once, and they way they have structured Manning, Wayne and Harrison's contracts tied you up quite a bit. I know Manning was willing to restructure,  but even at that, you could have probably only held on to one of them.
I would have loved to snatched Rhodes or June.

edited to add:   Oh yeah.. and the Colts spent some mad cash on a certain kicker last year. Think of the cap room tied up in his contract. Vanderjerk was on a slipperry slope in Indy, but you probably could have gotten AV a bit cheaper.. he wanted out of NE, and IMO would have gone for less money than Polian put on the table.

Not so sure about that one. Since winning the SB , 4 Colts players have been arrested. Only Rhodes is gone. Only Rhodes was a FA.

Darrell Reid- marijuana possesion
Dexter Reid- concealed weapon and marijuana possesion
DeDe Dorsey- speeding and carrying a weapon without a license

Wow i am in shock.  The only one that was publicized in the local news had been Rhodes.  Appreciate that info.

With most of the big holes filled, I think the only way the Cowboys get a starter this year, is to move up ... not usually a smart move, but this season I think it makes sense. Calvin Johnson would fit perfectly. If he's gone, Adrian Peterson would be a huge upgrade at running back or Laron Landry would fit very well at safety with Roy Williams.

Calvin Johnson is a freak -- 6'-4" and 235, he runs a 4.31 in the 40, which is insanely fast. Dallas will have a slightly better chance at getting Dwayne Jarret out of USC, who is a solid WR.

Hmm, some interesting scenarios, caitlyn . I'd be especially okay with the last one, a first, third, and Crayton. It can happen! Remember, we got Tony Dorsett for a first round pick (the 24th), and 3 second round picks, I think, in order to get the Seahawks pick (number 2 overall), in 1977.
 
In 1974, Dallas traded DE Tody Smith and WR Billy Parks for Houston's pick (number 1 overall), and got Too Tall Jones.
