100 bucks says both of the Browns picks will be flops.

I am seeing a lot of speculation the Saints will target Marlon Humphrey. Would definitely fill a big need in the secondary.

Umm, defensive front 7 or Oline in 1st round....pretty please

.

Keep an eye on LB Zach Cunningham from Vandy as well.

IMO, and that's all it is, we need to do enough to maintain on defense - add some where we can add some - but we should make our priority the o-line. That'll help Drew and whomever eventually replaces him. Building that o-line should be task #1.

I would agree. However I think we are set at LT and that's pretty much the only position on the OL that would warrant a pick in the top 10. The only way I would like us to pick a guard that high is if it was the next Larry Allen.

Pick #5 is worth its weight in gold. Thats where I would love to be sitting come draft day. Take a true game changer or trade down and reap the rewards.

Agreed, I believe Kalil Mack was taken with the 5th pick.

odds are we will not have top talent drop into our laps

second tier level of talent appears deep and if needs is the governing factor, trading back a few spot will still allow us the chance to get that talent.

Then again I am trade back freak.

As long as you stay in the top 15 we should have more than player still on the board to fill a need with BPA qualities.

I really like and I mean really like players getting 3rd 4th 5th rankings by the media that fill needs.

I want more picks, then again I always do lol
