Round 1 is done...who's left, what's needed?

Sergio Kindle, DE/OLB from Texas is a steal at this point. Clausen too.

Roger Saffold, OT from the Hoosiers may be the safest pick on the board. Taylor Mays is now a good value pick.

Unfortunatley, we don't really need any of those guys.

Tate or Benn, either one could help us right away.

Won't be surprised to see Hurney trade up for Tate, reminds everyone of Smitty.

Eh if we trade up for anyone I think it's going to be Everson Griffen. He is the athletic freak at DE that could ease the loss of Peppers when he brings it. So personally I think we trade up using next years first, grab Griffen and then take Benn at 48...

who is everyone? not me. steve smith is more explosive and way more agile. tate reminds me more of a pass catching tight end like dante rosario.

    • Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
    • Crosby will garner a haul in a trade. I would be reluctant to make that trade because of the following: 1. Our overall roster is awful. We cannot afford to be trading away valuable draft capital. 2. He isn't the best fit(IMO) for the scheme that Evero runs.  I love the player but it would really need to be at a reasonable deal and I think he is likely to garner an unreasonable price if he gets traded.
    • In terms of need, EDGE is currently #1. Our pass rush is near league worst levels. However, I don't subscribe to "need" based drafting. BPA all day.  We do need to dramatically upgrade over Scourton, Jones, Wonnum and Umanmielen. That is likely in the running for the NFL's worst two deep. Not saying all those players are bad, but I am saying 100% of those players are 2nd or 3rd stringers.
