DeAngelo Williams...Is it possible?

OK, I am dealing better than I thought I would. The only way to salvage the draft for me now is if we DO trade back into the first round, could we have a shot at DeAngelo Williams? Adam Schefter said when he spoke with Bob McNair that our plan is to take Williams number one & then trade back into the first round for another RB. Don't want Maroney. Don't want Addai. Don't want Lendale (but that wouldn't surprise me). I would live with taking DeAngelo. Thoughts?

I have to disagree....all along everyone said that the #1 overall pick is about BAP. After that it's about filling needs. We have more needs then another running back. I would like to see us go OL with our next pick, even trade back up into the first round for Justice if he drops or stay where we are and take Winston or McNeill.

Honestly, I was in more favor of getting him than Bush. He, unlike Bush, was a workhorse at his college. Saying all of that, I was a Young (still am) supporter starting to "accept" getting Bush with the #1 and then this happens. To put it in the best way possible, this is complete and total B**********. I'll say this, they better produce some wins and I mean quick!

I think Maroney is a much better chance, I think there is a much better chance he will be available. I think Maroney would be nice for us, he's bigger than Domanick Davis, much faster than Davis, he has pretty good hands, he has played in a zone blocking scheme all the way throughout college, and he doesn't have past injury concerns like DeAngelo (although he never had to run the ball as much DeAngelo, but that could be a good thing).
 
first of all i know there are a lot of upset people out there...well get over it...mario williams is going to make everyone forget terrell suggs or jason babin...we have already talked to the chicago bears about trading back into the 1st round...personally i think the pick is going to be lendale white...don't ask me why...i just have a gut feeling that he's going to be in a texans uni tomorrow...other than that...d. williams will be gone before the chicago pick...maroney won't and white won't...addai shouldn't be in the picture...personally i think maroney is a very solid back...but i think the edge will go to lendale white for his ability to run inside the tackle and gain the tough yards

No way they get LenDale White. Count on it now, quote me on it, whatever, if we trade back into the 1st and go for a RB it will be Laurence Maroney if available.
 
We have made about as fat a statement as possible that we want defense. Passing on Bush was a clear statement. If we are going to skip over the most talented player I (and many) have ever seen, then lets continue filling needs. At the start of the 2nd round, I'd like to see OL or CB addressed.

I don't think so, because then we will hear about how McNair likes players with better character....I don't think the senile bastard knows what he wants after tonight...
 
right...personally i think maroney will be the better back...but i have a gut feeling that they'll pick lendale white
