Smoke and mirrors!

We have 3 or 4 guys who can play ILB.

Just because he doesn't list them in his top 3 doesn't mean he won't upgrade.

BTW: A pass rusher can be a LB as well.

I's say pass rusher is a must as well. We put very little pressure on opposing QB's.

I'm not sure anyone would argue that the three he mentioned aren't necessary upgrades this offseason.

LB would be a great addition. I am still just amazed we have to have this conversation because of the lack of production from the defensive front four. What the hell happened to the pressure.

combine chatter, could be true could be false but i agree

I think it is common sense that these are the top needs. I'm just glad to see SP finally agree with us.

I want somebody on the interior DL that can collapse the pocket and flush the QB out. That makes it much easier for the outside rushers to get to the QB when he just can't step up in the pocket.

We met with Danny Shelton and Mario Edwards at the Combine so I think even the powers that be like your idea. With Bunkley likely being cut we sure do need some help in the middle of the line.

And with the thirteenth pick of the 2015 NFL draft, the New Orleans Saints and Sean Payton select Wide Receiver out of...

How many heads would explode upon hearing this announcement?!?

It all depends on who that would be and what we would pick in the following rounds. If a WR is the BPA at 13 then that's what I want.

Only Amari Cooper.

You also have Browns with WR need.
