Pass Rush and Free Safety were our issues last season...

I agree with this, as well. The defense as a whole is a unit. The efficiency of one area directly affects the others. More pressure and help over the top would make what we already had at CB look a great deal better. But, I'm still not opposed to improvement where ever it can take place, as long as it is not an overall subtraction.

Adds quality depth. Moore will be better this year. Now get Butler and DE, CB and LB with the 1st 3 picks in the draft and we'll be ok on defense. If O and KI can stay healthy and get with the program damn this could be a good year. I think the Saints are going to draft a QB at 11 and my vote goes to Trubisky.

If we draft a qb at 11 imma be super pissed. None of them are good enough to be drafted that early imo. Draft a game changing de at 11 not someone who is gonna sit for a year or two.

If we draft a QB at 11 I might just birth a small farm animal...

... and I'd raise him as a 4H project and win a prize at the fair.

Ok... I will... Trubisky may be gone...

QB PICK AT #11 or 32 PATRICK MAHOMES Texas Tech?
Face it... Brees isn't going to last forever....

If you're a quarterback in Texas running the spread attack that is prevalent throughout the state, playing for Texas Tech is a natural fit. The son of the former major league pitcher of the same name has a big-league arm, and used it quite a bit in high school (4,619 yards, 50 TDs as a senior) and more than anyone else in college football the past two seasons.

Mahomes began his career by starting the Red Raiders' final four games his true freshman year (1,547 yards, 16 TDs, four INTs, 56.8 completion percentage), one of those games being a 598-yard, six-touchdown effort against a top-10 team in Baylor.

He earned honorable mention All-Big 12 notice for the second straight year in 2015, starting every game and leading the FBS with 393 yards of total offense per game (4,653 yards, 36 TDs, 15 INTs, 63.5 completion pct).

Mahomes was a second-team all-conference pick in his final year with Tech in 2016, leading the FBS with 421 passing yards per game (5,052 total, 41 TDs, 10 INTs, 65.7 completion pct). He's also been a threat with his big-bodied frame and strong legs the past three years, scoring 22 times on the ground.

I'd be concerned, but wouldn't be that upset if we took Trubiskey, assuming he'd even fall to us at No. 11...

I would be upset though if we didn't use at least three of our next picks (R1/32, R2/42, R3/74, R3/103) to improve the defense, specifically the pass rush, though...

Moore was a good signing, and at least they're addressing the positions (or trying to) we have been complaining about on here. They're trying to get better. I would personally bring Jhari back for the right price. He had a solid season last year and with armstead and his injuries being uncertain it would allow us to still have two solid guards while swinging Peat out left when needed. Jhari is better than both of the other backups and unless Turner makes a drastic turn this year then I'd try to keep him for the right price
