So who do you want with our 3rd overall pick?

[rayzor]

this team has way to many holes, bpa.

for the rest of the draft, i agree.

RT and OLB need to be addressed in the draft quicker than anything else, though, and i don't like picking up an LB in the first and i don't trust an OT that you don't/shouldn't pick up in the first. franchise OTs don't make it to FA and they are far too expensive to trade for and far too important to draft a guy later and develop as a project.

i don't think we have the luxury of time to develop a DT. I would rather pick up (an) experienced one(s) in FA. we have enough inexperience in the middle of that line.

a QB with time/protection, decent accuracy, and good decision making skills (which is what we have) should be able to do well with a mediocre or just better than average receiving corps (WR & TE) and i would say our receiving corps as is (esp. with the return of gettis) would fall into that latter category. look at the pats, saints, and packers as an example there. any WR we bring in, unless they are an elite talent (which i wouldn't pass up kalil for), should be a good and very experienced returner for him to warrant a roster spot along side smith, gettis, and lafell.

i don't see CB as being an immediate need. i like gamble, capt, and butler and have enough faith in logan to warrant holding off on CB unless we see an elite returner prospect available who is decent enough for a spot in the rotation at CB.

i'd be fine with us drafting a ballhawking safety in round 3 or 4, but i think that drafting an RT, OLB, and PR guy is more important.

Lol, trust me I am a huge Alshon fan, but lets be honest hes not a number 1 receiver at the pro level. I think he would be great in the number 3 spot, just for this conversation I dont think he is worth our top draft pick.

there arent many things worse than draft talk in November.

Eh.

As a football fan, the Draft is one of the most exciting days of the year for me. I love the Draft.

Does it suck that we're talking about the #2 pick? Yeah, it does. But, does it suck talking about the Draft? Never.

i agree we have to address the OT, OLB, CB, DT AND WR/PR. But since we have holes everywhere we need to go bpa with the positions we need them at. OLB and DT should be address through FA period.

i have no faith in captain what so ever in coverage. i seen in earlier games teams are picking on him staying away from CG of course, but when he is on an island teams are going for him and i cant blame them.

with a season like this....about all there is to do is look to the future b/c the present is just too frustrating. lemonade out of lemons.

1. DT

2. DT

3. DT

4. DT

5. DT

6. DT

7. DT

One or two of them are bound to be a stud, given the odds of probability

[Fox007]

I honestly think we should draft a starting CB and use hogan as the nickle and primarily use Cap as a special teams ace/4th corner.

Cap just gets used, and I love him, but he gets bullied then called for BS penalties.

[SauceBoss]

I really dont think we need to draft a WR yet. DT and CB are by far the biggest needs.

How you figure corner? It's DT and LB/RT/WR. Definitely DT. We have 4 more than capable corners. You lost your damn mind.

[csx]

Don't forget free agency. The draft is not the only way to fill holes. This is a weak draft for DT's so it might not make sense to throw a top 5 pick at one just because.

So if we end up #2 would you rather draft Kalil or trade down to #8 or so with someone like the Browns and pick up their extra first?

If we have top 5 pick trade down and gain extra picks we need help at every position but QB

[MadHatter]

1st round: kalil

2nd round: chase thomas (as OLB)

3rd round: best punt returner available (CB or WR)

Sorry Rayzor....but we don't have a 3rd Rd pick. Traded it for Olsen.
