2009 NFL Draft: Day Two Open Thread

Welcome to Revenge of the Birds! Day One earned the Arizona Cardinals two players to fill definite needs on the roster — Beanie Wells was recruited with the 31st overall pick to add some punch in the running game; Cody Brown was added to the Cardinals' defense to bring some youth to the pass rush. Day Two picks start off as somewhat recognizeable names and may be even players that RotB's cgolden highlighted as a potential pick of the Cardinals; by the end of the day when that last compensational pick is announced, we'll all be wondering "who?". Fear not, RotB will provide the details as the become available. These details should only whet your appetite for more and fear not as the upcoming week will be chock full of analysis and projections for the Cardinals' 2009 Draft Class leading up to next weekend's mandatory mini-camp.
Feel free to comment on the day's activities and let's see how close Bezekira's Cardinals-only mock draft comes to reality.

I’m surprised he’s still on the board. We had him projected as a late 2nd/early 3rd rounder. Would be nice if he slid to #95.
We all leave footprints in the sands of time, just watch out for the discarded fish hooks!
There’s been a major run on WRs this round (third).
Anyone excite/concern you that’s been drafted in the NFC West, hevchv? Curry added to the Seahawks’ linebacking corps makes thankful their secondary sucks eggs. :P

After that pick...
They rescinded their offer to hill and he is now a free agent. Should we go after him?
That's a thought; can the Cards afford him & Dansby for one season?
And extend Wilson? Restructure Rolle? “Extend” Boldin?

Thought he did at the beginning of the strength/conditioning program.
Or am I thinking of Watson?

Don't know how it works.
I’m trying to find the link I saw about Hill being dumped. If I can, it might explain in more detail how it works.
Signed March 4th.

That was my initial thought as well
Could use the savings we’ll get after cutting Edge

Sidbury slides to the 4th? Richmond stigma perhaps?

Rashad Johnson, S, Alabama

Sounds promising...jjust have to wonder why another safety and what that alludes to Rolle/Wilson's long-term Cardinal-dom

If Sidbury is there do we take him?
I would have been ok taking him in the 2nd i think. Even though we already took C Brown do you think we should take Sidbury if there at 131? I could see the Ravens taking him to fill Bart Scotts place maybe. As for Hill I might go for that. Would we have a log jam at LB though?
Never do card tricks for the group you play poker with.
Hill won’t fit this year with Dansby having signed his tender. There are too many other longterm goals that need to be addressed this year to afford to pay two ILB a ton of money. If Sidbury drops all the way to the Cards in the fourth and they don’t take him, I have to think their pass rush needs have been met with Cody Brown (?!). Unless there’s a late round diamond the Cards have their eyes on.

ILB
I would be interested to see the Cards go after the TCU ILB Jason Phillips because if we don’t get a long term deal done with Dansby we are going to need one and he played on a TCU defense that was a top 10 defense.
WTF is up with the Raiders' selections?
Is Al Davis completely whacked out on preservation fluids on his way to full undead-hood?

Greg Toler, CB, St. Pauls College?!

Adds depth which we need.
Makes sense too since Ralph Brown is only around for 1 year. Not sure why Offensive line depth hasn’t been established yet.
Hey, hey, hey hey hey, watch the language, ok? I have a family.

Another rags to riches story
I had thought the Cards CB depth was excellent already; now there will be some tough cuts in early September.

Why CB
I wonder why they went after a CB when that position isn’t a huge need and we could have used a defensive linemen?
Anybody else notice two picks still on the board in
OG Duke Robinson and TE Cornelius Ingram. I’ve seen both projected as 1st round picks in some mock drafts. I have to imagine if either is available when the Cards pick next we may see them.

Robinson
I think Robinson or Ricky Jean-Francois might be a really good 5th round pick. I will be interested to see who they take.
Cards have had some good 5th round picks lately
Antonio Smith and Hightower come to mind immediately.

Robinson goes to the Panthers...they've had a good draft thus far...

Morstead goes in the fifth round? So much for that 7th round "fun" pick Bez
At least the Beaver is still on the board.

Ricky Jean-Francois
I the Cards should take Ricky Jean-Francois he has a lot of potential and if we can get him to play up to that talent he will be great.
Completely random,
but apparently, my parents went to a charity fundraiser last night and Michael Bidwill was there.
Insert witty and/or humorous signature here.
Stay tuned tomorrow for the swarm of UFA signings!
Good night!
