The Draft and what I would give up for a TOP LB

Historically, we haven\'t gotten many good players in the 2nd. Hell, I\'d give up a 2nd and 3rd to get a play-making linebacker.

2000 Darren Howard (stud)
2001 No 2nd rounder
2002 LeCharles Bentley (pro-bowler)
2003 Stinchcomb (back-up)
2004 Henderson
2004 Watson (promising starter)

Out of our last 5 2nd rounds picks, 3 are contributing starters, one is a pro-bowler, one is a top notch DE, one is a promising WR, and the jury is still out on Stinchcomb, a back-up.

I\'d say we\'ve done alright with our 2nd round picks so far.
