And MLB, im sure you just forgot.

But depth at CB is needed.

Payton usually carries 4 TE's on the roster. We have Shockey, Thomas, Miller and... after that we drop off. As much as our coach uses the TE, I could see the need for another.

REPs to a lot of you in this thread that would allow it (some of you had gotten REPs too recently from me to allow me to give it again...like CL for one)...however, one was negative. GUESS WHO!

Raw player. Very athletic (obviously). Responds well to coaching. Tons of upside.

Does anyone else think a young safety is a need? Are we sold on Young or Jenkins making the switch? If Earl Thomas falls to 32 do you consider taking him?

I dont think Thomas will fall that far...but he would be a great pick...im not sold on anyone on the roster except for Sharper..
