Holmes was shipped because out of convenience. Outside the final drive of Superbowl 43 he has been quite a disappointment.

Suh? I just hope Bradford doesn't get Tim Couch'ed. He's going to get hit a lot more than he ever has before.

I do find the draft fascinating in that is emphasizes just how sophisticated the game has become at all levels. Evaluating talent in any field is extremely difficult. I love "process " stuff. ( my wife says the deeply weird nature of my personality was truly put to the test last night when an hour of the NFL First Round conflicted with the season finale of Project Runway <bg> Thank god for DVRs. )

And in the category of "Brady Quinn just can't catch a break" after trading up the Denver Broncos will take Tim Tebow of Florida !
