bird_1972 Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 A while back there were rumors of a potential top 10 pick being injured. I believe I read in a thread today (within a posted article) that Udeze is that player and a torn labrum (shoulder) is the injury in question. This makes me concerned about trading down for him as it seems he was the target of such a move in the draft. Of course there is talk of Will Smith (the fresh prince of Ohio State), but there have also been reservations that he is as sure a thing as Udeze. I still think we need to address the D line, any potential injury to Udeze notwithstanding. How does this alter what the board members here think we should do. The floor is open to discussion...

Oldskool Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 Udeze has shoulder surgery two years ago. He’s been cleared by doctors at the combine so it’s not to likely that he is the player in question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fwo40 Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 Personally, I'm still big in the Sean Taylor camp.....but if we did take DL...I'd rather take a good run stopping DT. Give me Wilfork or Harris before Udeze....Wilfork is probably the best DL out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, Oldskool, since you and I are two of the most vocal advocates of trading down for D line, who do you want with that pick should the Skins decide to go that route?

I’d like to see Udeze in the first and Dockett or Washington in the 2nd if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posse81 Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 Yeah, I'm a Wilfork guy too. He seems like he would be a nice fit and I think he would help us more than Udeze or Smith. I think Smith is a guy who could play OLB in the pros so maybe not the best fit here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bird_1972 Posted April 19, 2004 Author Share Posted April 19, 2004 I'm leaning towards Wilfork as well. If for nothing else, because he's really fat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Glory Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 I'm going to trust the FO to select the right DT. They do the research and see more then we'll ever see so they should be able to select the right DT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
