Tom [Giants fan] Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 Colts | Polian Calls Draft Class 'Weak' - from www.KFFL.com Thu, 22 Apr 2004 19:04:51 -0700 John Oehser, of Colts.com, reports Indianapolis Colts President Bill Polian disagrees with most personnel people who call the 2004 NFL Draft class one of the strongest in recent memory. "I've heard people say it's the deepest draft in years, but you couldn't tell it by me," Polian said. "I think it's the weakest one I've seen in years. It's deep at quarterback and wide receiver, so I guess that makes it a deep draft, but from the standpoint of the other positions, it's probably as thin as I've seen in a while." This guy is an idiot. If you are looking at the overall strength or weakness of a draft class, you can't take away it's strongest points and call it weak. What an idiot. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavyDave Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 Well other than Gallery, KW2 and S Taylor and the fact there arent any D linemen worth being grabbed in the top 5 he isn't that far off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankbones Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 I predict this will be one of the deepest TE drafts in years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins26 Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 What an idiot, its a weak D Line draft. But QB, WR, TE, RB, and several other positions it is looking very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No1SkinzFan Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 It is deep mostly at WR, TE, and the secondary. Other than Rivers, Big Ben, and Manning there aren't too many QBs that catch my eye. So other than those positions and Gallery, I agree that he isn't too far off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HokieSkinsFan Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 Pffft, please. If he thinks this draft is weak, then wait till next year's. It's early, but man that draft is looking like a real stinker. IMO this draft is pretty friggin deep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prosperity Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 RB is not looking very good, deep but not very good. Weak DLine draft. Weak OLine draft. TE is great. WR is very deep. QB is good and deep. I agree with him but there is so much hype EVERY year I can see why every year would seem like it was better than the last.

Oldskool Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 There hasnt been a great draft in a few years, including this one... That still doesnt mean that Polian is out of his mind and just wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Glory Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 Polian has made some good teams over the years. If a draft is lacking in D-line & O-line players, then it IS a bad draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Polin didn't draft them, he built the Bills 4 Super Bowl teams & started the Carolina Panthers (& their first playoff game) before going to Indy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yomar Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 OLine is thin, DLine is thin, Linebacker is mediocre, Running Back is thin, Cornerback is mediocre, TE is strong, QB is strong, WR is very strong...once you get outside of the top 10 it is a pretty weak draft, but inside the top 10 it is one of the strongest in a long time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dent19 Posted April 23, 2004 Share Posted April 23, 2004 Don't think it's the strongest, but damn sure not the weakest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
