DT is what we need

BlackandBlue · 04-16-2003, 08:26 AM

I\'ve heard a ton of BS coming from different clubs. Clubs trying to better their position in the draft. Some players that weren\'t initially thought to be as good as others at their position are surrounded by hype, alot of it unfounded. Others, who were thought of as being sure picks are getting negative responses, once again, unfounded rumors. It happens every year. It\'s the chess match we affectionately refer to as \"The NFL Draft\".
Fact is, there are two CB\'s in this draft that will start their first year. There are seven at DT. I\'d say of those seven, five have the potential to make impacts. But, DT is the easiest position to adjust to going from college to NFL ball.
I don\'t really care as much, as long as the first three picks go towards DT, LB, and CB. Whether they take Trufant and Bailey, then take Warren or Long in the 2nd round, or Kennedy, Henderson, and Weathersby/Woolfolk in the 2nd round. I will say this, if they do take a LB and a DT in the 1st, and wait to take a CB in the 2nd, don\'t expect that CB to start unless he has a spectacular camp. He will be another project that will be on the sidelines this coming year. The option to take a CB and LB in the 1st, and a DT in the 2nd, gives us potentially three starters their first year out of college. Or hell, we could take Trufant and Robertson in the 1st, and Hayes/James in the 2nd, and I\'d say Hayes or James could potentially start, in my opinion, we are weak at LB, unless Allen wants to prove me wrong this coming year.
