Swiss Cheezhead Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 Ferguson would satisfy me, as much as our defense needs help. Hawk, Mario, D'Brick, or maybe even Davis. It's a deep draft for LBs, so we could still grab solid guys later. 1373754[/snapback] I'd have to agree. Ferguson is so good that I wouldn't mind shuffling the O-line to accomodate him. I wouldn't mind Davis, either, since McCarthy will feature the TE position. That said, I have a strong feeling Thompson will trade down, which I think would be fine. There will be a handful of players sitting there at #5, all of whom will be coveted by several teams. It will be an excellent, exciting draft.

Having said that I'm totally open to trading down top acquire a second 2nd round pick. This draft is deep deep deep in the first 60 picks so that could be huge....only question is, who do we trade with and who can we expect to get that we actually "need" in the middle to bottom of first round? Just curious what you all think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Todd1 Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 I don't think you can take Ferguson or Davis. We have Bubba still, so that's not necessary and a solid 2nd or 3rd round guard can be found (or in FA). If Hawk or Mario are gone, I think you gotta trade down. Actually, I say Mario or bust. Not many LBs are worthy of a top 5 pick. (Not so fast Mr Arrington!) I would be happy with taking Denver's two first rounders and a 2nd or 3rd round pick. They think they are 1 player away from a Super Bowl, so let them move up to #5. With the 22 and 29, we could easily get a Kiwanuka (not a bad consolation to Mario!) and a Carpenter or Greenway, then a solid Guard or CB in the 2nd. There are three new starters that can push this team back to the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pompei also convinced me that Hawk is the pick there - though I wouldn't exactly be weeping if they grabbed Williams; I just see less of a "bust factor" on Hawk, mainly because he seems to have more want-to. I imagine a more talented Chris Spielman, which is pretty scary, considering how great Spielman was in his day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't mind that pick at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
