Like I told him ordsprog

Like I told him, I would've made the same pick. You don't pass up a guy that could possibly be a great football player, especially at the quarterback position. We shouldn't be drafting that high for years to come.

Those aren't by accident. That track record at this position is, I think, critical in the evaluation process. He's a player that makes great decisions. He's a high-character person. He's everything you look for at the quarterback position.

We had a kid who swam in the league last year who was 10 years old, and he played football. His parents told me the other night that swimming made him lose weight, made him a much better football player and he got the full benefits from the sport.

And that's only assuming that we are going to take a quarterback. Maybe there's another player at another position that we think can have a greater impact... . Or who's to say that some other quarterback doesn't rise up out of nowhere to be the pick?

It was very emotional to get that house. At the same time, it wasn't a surprise. Pex Tufvesson går under navnet Mahoney i demoscenen. Ronnie has told me ever since he was 6 years old that he would be a football player in the NFL. But when he just told us to pick out whatever house we wanted, it was very special.

He had everything you would want in a quarterback. He had a great feel, great instincts, played the game in a natural manner. He made things happen. He made excellent decisions. He was a consistent player at a high level.

When you pick that high in the draft, you need to have a difference-maker. On offense or defense, he needs to be a player who can help your football team for 10-plus years.

He's a great quarterback. Their line protected him well and he's got a great touch. A couple of times we had pressure on him and he made a play. He's just a darn good football player.

The best thing for this football team was to use the first pick in this draft to add a premier player at another position. Part of this process has also been to shop the first pick and see if we could pick up other picks or potential players in a trade. Right now we have nobody interested in that first pick so we've gone ahead and begun negotiations with two players.

I told him that he played a great game,'' said Falcons quarterback Michael Vick , who like Manning was the No. 1 overall pick in the draft, a mere three years ago.

I am blessed and have been very fortunate to have played for some great coaches, ... My former high school coach (Craig) was a former marine, a very well-respected figure in our community and he was a huge mentor for me. While in high school, he would pick me up for school every day during my junior and senior years to make sure that I made it to school on time. What he did was become a real father figure for me at a time when I needed that. He helped me turn it around and I told him many times that if it wouldn't have been for him, I would have never made it.

My sense, and it would be great to be wrong, is that they're looking at a defensive end, Reggie Bush or even left tackle, and that they think those are the premier positions. Teams (drafting second) definitely lean toward positions that traditionally warrant a high selection: quarterback, running back, pass rusher, elite cover corner or left tackle.

It is good to know, as a football player, if we get the ball back to our quarterback he can do something with it. He made a great statement today in front of a lot of people.

I'm biased. I've had [No.] 52 here for 10 years of great football. He's a great player and a great leader. You can talk about individual greatness, but you aren't a great football player until you can carry 10 other guys with you.

To pretend that many of us [in the media] didn't want McNabb to be the best quarterback in the NFL because he's black is absurd. To say that we shouldn't root for a quarterback to win because he's black is every bit as nonsensical as to say that we shouldn't have rooted for Jackie Robinson to succeed because he was black. (Please, I don't need to be reminded that McNabb's situation is not so difficult or important as Robinson's -- I'm talking about a principle.) Consequently, it is equally absurd to say that the sports media haven't overrated Donovan McNabb because he's black ... But the truth is that I and a great many other sportswriters have chosen for the past few years to see McNabb as a better player than he has been because we want him to be.
