To me our most pressing issue is DT, followed by OLB.

With only 4 picks this year in the draft, things will get interesting.

A lot weighing on the CBA.

4 picks? I'm pretty sure we have 6.

And you would be right.

the great thing i noticed about watching highlights of aaron curry was these 2 ballhawks that were split seconds behind curry

2 beasts that made just as many plays in curry's own highlights

2 studs that could fly to the ball, make the play without being in the end result....such as getting off a block, covering the main WR or getting to the QB just before the ball gets out, etc

those 2 studs got drafted out of wake forest 2 picks away from each other and are going to play for the saints 2nd super bowl next season

chip vaugn and stanley arnoux

both are very fast, i think both of them could play safety...arnoux is a little undersized for LB but he is fast as **** and he could easily play both(not as the same time of course)

I know Arnoux is small, but Elvis Dumervil isn't very big, either. He's about an inch taller than Elvis, but is outweighed by roughly 15 pounds. I think if he beefs up a little, tacking on another 10-15 pounds, he could be a Dumervil-type player for us with that speed. He hits like a truck, too. I could see him playing havoc on QB's on the pass rush or RB's trying to run his way, not to mention that he seems to play pretty good pass coverage. I'm really anxious to see what he can do when healthy.

size is a huge advantage in the NFL......

first off.....dumervil is a freak athlete.....i like to think that arnoux has that same athleticism but it just doesnt come around that often

secondly, dumervil is a 3-4 pass rushing OLB/DE....he is not a true OLB like arnoux would have to be

being good at 1 thing, like dumervil, merriman, and jason taylor are is very different than being good at several things like our OLBs have to be

shanle is a better overall OLB than dumervil is and that would probably annoy a lot of broncos fans but its the truth

We have already given those picks up for Shockey...and the picks for Vilma, too. The only team that has one of our picks this year is the Eagles in the 6th round. Here's a 7 Round mock draft that has what positions we pick this year:

The David Thomas trade was a 7th rounder in 2011. I had to look it up myself, because I thought it was this year, too.
