here hagan714. Good post.

Everyone you need to follow the link and read the article. Like the guy says " I say it's more important to get players with a proven track record of getting the ball back and stop hoping they have a knack for it." YEP!

Also check out their schools, cos some of them took their turnovers against very good opposition.

He has really dropped, according to Kiper & the gang, but might be available in the 2nd. 3rd would be a reach

I'm a big Anthony Spencer fan and if he's there in the first, it would make my day if we select him. With Grant possibly being gone, Spencer would be his perfect replacement. In fact if we were to deal Grant, I think Spencer would be able to step in right away and we wouldn't miss a beat. Another guy worth looking at is Ray McDonald in the second, he's a good player and a good sleeper. He's a better version of Whitehead and has the ability to play inside and out.

I would be ecstatic if we could get Weddle in the 2nd. That dude would be a turnover terror, not to mention being an offensive coach's matchup nightmare. A corner/safety hybrid? Scary thought.
