Lets say we get Morris Claiborne due to circumstances... and Zach Brown drops to us in the 2nd... Do we gamble with our DT situation holding up under Ron Edwards and sophomore DT's with an offseason or do we ignore the incredible chance to instantly replace Thomas Davis with his home grown clone and just blindly take best available DT?

[MusikmanLP7]

Yes

[Mr. Scot]

First thing that'd happen after that is that I would wake up

[JawnyBlaze]

Hell yea. You won't find a much bigger proponent of taking a DT early than me, but if Claiborne AND Brown fell to our picks in the 1st and 2nd I'd be ecstatic.

I'd say no, you take the best available Pass Rusher.

[section543]

Yes! In a second! Doubt any DT in rd 2 will make much impact

[DynastyRTR]

Brown blows. I'd rather take a receiver than him in the second. If a guy like ronnell Lewis or vinny curry is there that would be my pick

[Ken]

Of course you do! I'm sure we'll get a FA DT & if we get brown & moriss in rounds 1&2, there is a DT left in the draft we like we'll take him. Imo

There will be some great DE's available at our 2nd round pick.. it would be very hard to pass one up. I could pass on Zach Brown, even though he would fit our scheme perfectly. Pass rush is more important.

Walterfootball.cOm has morris claiborne dropping to us due to cleveland being forced to select ryan tannehill and tampa going with trent richardson. We also have the option of trading back should the Buc select M Claiborne and Richardson drops to us at 10.

Walterfootball also has zach brown falling pass us and us selecting Jerel Worthy DT from michigan state, which isnt a bad pick. But given the option to replace t davis with homegrown talent in the second... Shouldnt we take it?

[Jackofalltrades]

I think that would be ideal, but I've written about my lack of interest in DT's ad naseum in the past months.

[SOJA]

well you definitely take Claiborne, I'd only take Brown if the DE/DT's there are not first round to early second round grade, in other words Brown is the best pick available at a position of need


Interesting side question, not that he will drop after yesterday's 40, but if Kendall Wright is there in the second do you take him

[Jackofalltrades]

Wright? I think so because he'd probably be the BPA at that point.
