Michael Lombardi said tonight Misi is a better player than Derrick Morgan

I hope he is right. Did he explain why he thinks so?

Just thinks he is a better player with more upside.

Excuse me for my ignorance....but who is Michael Lombardi?

NFL insider for NFL Network

Sort of like Mort, Schefter, Clayton....etc

I wouldn't have ever gotten Morgan due to his porcelain knee. He'll need micro-fracture surgery before he ever takes a snap for Baltimore.

Kindle needs the micro-fracture surgery in baltimore, Morgan went elsewhere and is healthy

I sure hope he is right. My concern is he is another Cameron Wake. A guy who can rush but cannot cover. Whose gonna play the SOLB position?

O yea mike, my bad. I'm not drinking beer while posting again, I promise.

Michael Lombardi is the former GM for the Raiders and is now an analyst... I believe....pretty smart personnel guy

Kevin Martin says the Dolphins should have stayed at 12 and taken Earl Thomas. He said trading back initially sounded like a good pick, but feels Koa did not bring enough value to make up for missing out on a premier safety.

Opinions are like noses....

I agree with him, I wanted ET. But hey, I think doing what we did got us some quality players and that overall the draft was a success.

Why the draft is funny...

Earl Thomas was the HOTTEST guy going in. Everyone wanted him. Dallas was gonna move up to get him. Philly had to have him. Miami was thinking about him. Cleveland maybe.

What happens, he falls to 14. Philly and Miami pass on him. Dallas stays put. And Cleveland takes another secondary player.

These teams say anything and everything EXCEPT the truth leading up to the draft. 14 isn't falling far, but for the hype around him prior, it almost is

I agree Mike. We were watching the TV in disbelief at how the first round turned out, topped off with the Tebow pick. It was almost comical.

The draft is not comical, all the mis-information before hand is. ET may or may not turn out to be a pro-bowl talent, but if that was gaurenteed then 13 other teams would of drafted him. We basically filled 3 positions by our trade down scenario, NT by sliding Starks inside, DE by taking Odrick and OLB by taking Misi........but just like I said with ET, thats provided they all pan out.

I just wonder who is playing where. Misi is said to be pretty good setting the edge. Wake is better at rushing the QB but Sporano has always wanted Wake at SOLB....go figure.

I think Misi gets a shot to be our SOLB with Wake as the pass rush specialist at WOLB.

I think Ireland tipped this off. He talked about Wake's better speed around the corner as a pass rusher, and how Misi is "tremendous" in coverage. So, just based on those 2 comments, Wake makes more sense at WOLB, and Misi makes more sense at SOLB. I think the only reason Wake played mostly SOLB last season was because Porter refused to be taken out of games.
