Only because Mac used all his picks I guess...not sure Tanny ever went on a spending spree like Mac just went on; except, Tanny signed a bunch of bad contracts, where half our signings - Cro, Gilchrist, Ridley, Stacy, etc are essentially one year deals...

2008. Tanny added Favre, Faneca, Woody, Pace & Kris Jenkins, among others.

Ham thanks for the cool video. I would love to hear Macc's top 5 on his big board and top 100. I would also love to hear who made trade offers and for what ? I would also love to hear free agents he wanted and lost out on ?
I want to hear the real poop from deep inside the draft room.

Go Jets...Cyborg

Studying USC defensive prospects for next year and this #94 keeps making plays. Jets landed a premier dude.

I felt the same way when I saw it, thats why I immediately had to post it. Its not often that you get a chance to hear a GM being candid about his philosophy and the thought process that went into his decisions. I don't know about you guys, but I felt like I was listening to a GM who exudes confidence because he has a solid philosophical foundation and he knows it won't fail him. I can see why Casserly and Ron Wolf recommended this guy to Woody, he belongs in that (GM) chair.

For a guy that some worried with struggle with the PR portions of the GM job, I have to say of all the recent GMs he seems to me to be the most comfortable and confident GM when addressing fans and the media. So excited about him being our GM.

Agreed. He seems to go with the approach of candid without spilling the beans. He seems to speak directly. His state of the unions will be entertaining.

I'm hoping after all the players get cut to 53, that Williams picks a # besides 62 ? 62 is a guard #.

I was just going to say I really don't like that number on him it looks awful.

I bet that Williams will be 92,93,or 95 when it's said and done .... #90 is retired for Dennis Byrd right?

90 is retired and I agree I expect a number change also

Speaking of Dennis Byrd being retired, while @ the Rolling Stones concert last week in Raleigh, NC.,, I noticed Dennis Byrd had his # retired @ NC State next to Russell Wilson. I thought Byrd was from Texas.

The Rolling Stones were fantastic ! Yes, Mick Jagger does strut around the stage like a chicken on acid !

A video of Leonard Williams letting us know that Richardson has been a great leader and a good teammate.

Lets hope he doesn't get him into weed.

Elias, If I had to bet, I think Williams has discovered weed along time ago ! His from Daytona Beach Florida, and while @ USC he rode his skateboard every where he went. Are'nt most skate boarder's stoned as monkey's most the time ! :stoned-smiley:

Yup. Different Dennis Byrd. All American DL for NC State in the 60s. 1st round pick of the Pats in 1968, played 1 season in the AFL before his career ended with knee injury.

Leonard Williams better be smarter than that. Without getting into the "Great Weed Debate", this kid has to come strong from day one. He's a #6 overall pick and an absolute beast of a player. He better be smarter than "Godforshort" regarding the hippie lettuce. You cannot throw away an NFL career because getting stoned was a priority. Get stoned in retirement. Play your balls off for 10 years first. Just my opinion.
