Butkus was one mean son of gun.
That move by the Jets obviously was smarter than the Rams move of taking Sammie. Jets had a good defense and running game, all they needed was someone like Sanchez to not blow up. Now the Jets made the playoffs because of their defense and running game, but Sanchez also wasn't bad enough to "prevent" them from going. Now all the Rams had to do in 2010 was build that same defense and running game, and take a decent QB down the road!
We reached on a kid that hadnt played in two years, what aren't you getting about that?
SJ I don't mean to correct , but you keep bringing up the Fact that the Rams took a player that didn't even play his senior year, HE MORE OR LESS DIDN'T PLAY HIS LAST TWO YEARS there!
Again SMART teams don't throw a butt load of money at a young player who hasnt played in two frickin years! We sucked on both side sides of the ball, take Suh (the safe pick as you say Coug) start to build your defense. And Coug if you think Sammie was all that great and the only reason we won 7 games that year, then without him, maybe we have the number 1 pick the next year or a top pick, maybe we move up to get one of the top 3 QBs.
You are basing Sammies greatness on ONE flipping great (I'm giving you that Coug )sophomore year, that happened TWO years before we drafted him, that insane, and the results have proven that!
As far as him winning ROY, of course he is, the ball is in his hands on every play, any QB that put up "decent" numbers that year would beat out any other offensive player, the QB spot is the sexy position!
Gotta agree with Coug here brother. Every team, all 32, draft Bradford No. 1 or No. 2 overall in 2010 if they knew they needed a QB. Every team. And in 2010 every team would have had no other option but to pay a butt load of money to sign either top pick.SJ I don't mean to correct , but you keep bringing up the Fact that the Rams took a player that didn't even play his senior year, HE MORE OR LESS DIDN'T PLAY HIS LAST TWO YEARS there!

If you want to blame the ducketts issue, blame the old CBA or the new one for coming a year too late.

Come on brother zeke, follow along with the conversation bro. This is twice now today.Dang....Why do all of you guys continue to dwell on the past? Does it really matter now what Sammy did in his college days? ...or rookie year? ....or how he was dradfted? Hell its only January and it seems like the Sammy talk has gone wild!
Even without hindsight, not sure I agree about not drafting Suh before Bradford even though we needed a QB just because Suh was a sure Pro Bowler and probable HOFer with any longevity in my mind and at the time and we needed immediate defensive help.No silly what you do is draft Suh the future All pro DT. our run D is not up to par. never mind you don't have a QB and an All American All Everything Heisman QB winner is sitting there at #1. just wait and draft Austin Davis because he won't cost much in 2012. sounds like a super bowl win to me.
You should stop correcting him. Sam only played 3 years in college. 14 gms in 07. 14 in 08. 3 in 09. why would you play your Senior year when know you will go #1 in 2010
Another country heard from. Lions got hosed on the pass interference call.
He missed almost TWO FULL YEARS, and don't come on here with Stupid remarks like , why would you play your senior year when you know you will go #1.
How can u possibly say drafting Bradford #1 overall was the right thing to do? What has our offense done besides run the ball half way decent? How many games has Bradford missed? My goodness people this is the most retarded argument ever. Sam hasn't done a dam thing people.
The ONLY thing that has improved since 2009 is our defense.
