Most football fans would love to me an NFL general manager. Here are the players I would select if I were the general manager of each NFL team.

1. Detroit Lions - Jason Smith Raiders Donald Penn Jersey , Offensive Tackle, Baylor: I like to build from the ground up, and I see major potential in Smith. His tight end background will serve him well at the tackle position and he's the best offensive lineman in the draft.

2. St. Louis Rams - Michael Crabtree, Wide Receiver, Texas Tech: As Rams GM, I'd want Smith. If he was gone, I'd take the best player available. In my opinion, that's Michael Crabtree.

3. Kansas City Chiefs - Aaron Curry, Linebacker, Wake Forest: Curry is the best defensive player in this draft and the Chiefs could really use help on that side of the ball.

4. Seattle Seahawks - Eugene Monroe, Offensive Tackle, Virginia: The Seahawks need someone to protect Matt Hasselbeck and Monroe is already a great pass blocker. He has the talent to be a top lineman in the league.

5. Cleveland Browns - Brian Orakpo, Defensive End, Texas: Eric Mangini supposedly doesn't like Brady Quinn or Derek Anderson very much and the team would probably pounce on Stafford if he was on the board. I, on the other hand Raiders Gabe Jackson Jersey , like Quinn and would go for the draft's best pass rusher in Orakpo.

6. Cincinnati Bengals - Andre Smith, Offensive Tackle, Alabama: I'm not a huge fan of drafting guys with character issues, but Smith was so dominant all season for the Red Tide that he's hard to resist for a team that so desperately need a tackle. The Bengals need to protect their best player, Carson Palmer, and Smith could definitely take care of that if he stays motivated.

7. Oakland Raiders - Jeremy Maclin, Wide Receiver, Missouri: I don't love Maclin, but the Raiders desperately need a wide receiver. He's an electric talent that should sell a lot of NFL tickets.

8. Jacksonville Jaguars - Mark Sanchez, Quarterback, USC: That's right, I prefer Mark Sanchez to Matthew Stafford. I'm also not sold on David Garrard, and since Crabtree and Maclin are off the board, I'd go with Sanchez as the quarterback of the future in Jacksonville.

When learning the martial arts, especially if you want to be effective Raiders Marquette King Jersey , you need to learn the gains and limitations of the two kinds of punches. Knowing these punches will proscribe and dictate your combat strategy. Knowing these punches will effect your training and enlighten you as as a Martial Artist.

A thrusting punch is the first kind of punch. A thrusting punch is like a train running into something and going through. Simply, there is no back off, and the punch goes through.

Now, the problem with the thrusting punch is…what happens to all the cars behind the train? They all collide, stack up, and become a mess. Thus, a thrusting punch, while in theory the unstoppable force, does risk becoming a mess.

Once delivered, a thrusting punch, is now entangled. The body behind the punch, unless the legs have moved the whole body forward, risks becoming unbalanced. Thrust, and you are forced to commit your body to the action, and possibly be overcommitted.

A snapping punch is the second type of punch. Imagine a jackhammer striking cement Raiders Rod Streater Jersey , but only impacting once and then holding off. It hits, damages as much as possible, and then retreats.

Now, the problem with the snapping punch is…not enough weight. The body doesn’t have time to move into the action, and so does not commit weight to the punch. You retain balance while punching, but were you really effective?

Now, a thrusting punch is a strategy involving moving your body, committing it to the action, using your entire weight, and god help you if you miss because you’re going to be out of place and unbalanced. The snapping punch is a strategy where you risk little, but don’t always do the damage you wish to. The main point here is the fact of committing weight, a thrust punch commits weight, but takes fifty per cent of the shock back up the arm, the snapping punch gives less weight, but 95% of the weight will be left in the body of the opponent.

So we have to continuously assess which is better Raiders Marcel Reece Jersey , the thrusting punch, or the snapping punch. Each punch has bad points and good, and you’re going to have to gauge balance versus stability, commitment versus noncommitment, weight versus speed, weight left in the body versus weight backed up the arm, potential follow ups, positioning, and so on and so on. When you’re done exploring all these possibilities, however, you’re going to have the right punch for the right situation.
