OOPS! That's what I get for not reading the original post all the way through. Sorry.

First off I'd be sick. I'd probably then take Balmer from NC.

Re: Who Do You Take?

Clady is the pick. We get a true LT and brown goes to RT. But what do we do with all the tackles on the roster? Brown trade? Stinch trade? Back ups traded?
Ryan is an option. Nah
This would set us up for a trade down in round one. Alot of teams are really eying these two.

I'd take Jenkins, but he would be moved to free safety.

Re: Who Do You Take?

The obvious pick is Deuce's replacement. Mendenhall. Can Deuce finish the season and how much more does he have in the tank anyway???

It has already been posted that we have enough OL.

Who do you think Payton takes?
Who do you want to see taken here?

NO TRADES... not the question.
Being that both the top DT's and CB's are now off the board, I'd probably go with Jenkins or whoever we have rated as the better tackle out of Clady, Otah, and Williams. Mendenhall is going to be a good player in this league but I'm comfortable with Bush and Thomas handling the load next year should Deuce not be on this team anymore. Plus, there's plenty of value in the third round for runningbacks should we decide to draft one.

It would suck if the first 9 picks ended up like that for us... trade down!

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

All little common sense goes a long way.

Yeah but David was in a Cover 2 when he won a ring. There's no way in hell he can play man-to-man at an elite level.

Re: Who Do You Take?

There is no yeah but...

Fact is fact he's got a ring. Colts had pressure on the QB. He can play at a high level when you get pressure on a QB.

Elite level... you're kidding right? So the Super Bowl is the same as a neighborhood pick up game. Its the biggest game in a pro football players career and he has a ring to show for it and you nor anyone can take that from him.

So when people say the biggest area of need and only point to one position you are wrong. There are many areas that need to be addressed.

Re: Who Do You Take?

He can play at a high level with pressure in a Cover 2, that's what I would argue. Fact of the matter is, he's the worst man cover corner I've ever seen in the NFL. I don't care how much pressure you get, he's still going to get burned.
