    I would have no problem with that! Should be some good RB talent around that pick!

    Is there any chance that we get him back? Look like the jags may not be picking up his option. That would be a patsies move right there...if we would. Lose a player...get compensated...and then sign him back for cheap.

    I always get excited by the 105 pick. We get the guy who was passed on 104 times.

    On a serious note, an extra third is nice.

    I don't have that much faith in QB coach Fichtner to fix that footwork. LJs progression over a 4 year span has been glacial so I don't know what to expect with a project (talented yes) like that. Although LJs confidence in himself seems very low and that could be holding him back. Tough to put an opinion on a coach as we don't see any of that day to day but that's jmo.

    Peterman would be an OK day 3 guy if they absolutely have to get one, although my preference is to wait until next year.

    I like Webb also, the concerns for both Webb and Mahomes are the wide open systems they played in college. The question is can they translate their game to the NFL.

    Either of those guys wouldn't need to play right away, they could take their time to develop as a #3 QB.

    it would also give us time to see if they are capable to replace ben when that happens or we need to pick again. they have some talent to work with. i like webbs size. :cool:

    I can see this as a nice opportunity to pick up a nice wr. I didn't want to burn a 3rd on one, but since we have two...hey.

    This is a great chance to pick up another starter. Nice.

    Pat Mahomes won't see the middle of the 2nd rd before he's snatched up

    I hate to be a former English teacher here, but the proper phrase is:

    "It's better to be pi**ed off then peed on".- Winston Churchill (no, he didn't say it, but it sounds like something he would say)
