Based on the very popular, pick for talent not position, strategy. Wouldnt we assume that at the 9th pick there is no de? You could argue that maybe a lb and convert, but at the 9th pick? Thats risky. So throw defensive ends out. And I ask this.

If Antrelle Rolle, and Mike Williams are on the board at 9. Who does the Gibb's racing team go with?

My opinion is Rolle. Less of a risk.

Erasmus James? I have seen things about him. But isnt it generally agreed upon that Rolle should go well before him. So if Rolle is available.....

That is a tough one. I say go with Williams because of the poor offensive performance last year and the way the D seemed to plug anyone in and they did just as well if not better than the starter....but Smoot was out there with Springs virtually the entire year and CB is not a position where you can just stick in the 2nd teamer and have little or no dropoff.

But either guy you just hope he fills the role that needs to be filled and they need both filled!!

I say we trade down a bit hopefully with the Chiefs, and take either Rolle, Jones, or Roger's whoever is avail. I like Rolle myself, but I think Williams will make an all pro out of any one of the 3, then we take WR V. Jackson in the 2nd, that I believe will be a big time draft for us, I sure hope Dan, Joe, and Vinney are paying attention to this site! :biggthump

Roddy will be gone in the 1st rd, Chris Henry will probably be avail. as late as the 3rd. I say we use the same strategy we used to get Cooley last year to get V. Jackson this year, even if we have to overpay a bit to ensure we get him early in the second we should do it.

Between a big time CB and Mike Williams at 9 - gotta take Mike. I think he'll be a good receiver and with his hands and not relying on speed to beat DBs, I feel he'll be able to play some as a rookie and be somewhat successfull.

Daseal I know you have an eye for talent see what you can dig up highlight wise on V. Jackson and tell me what you think. I really like this guy.

This probably wouldn't happen but if we got Derrick Johnson at number 9 I would love that. He is going to be a great linebacker with the only thing to stop him from doing that is a freak injury. If Barrow comes back he could play strong safety maybe or we could start playing New England's type of defense with linebackers moving around a lot more and playing down or up.

Barrow at strong safety??????

I doubt we draft a LB. We have plenty of depth at the position. And moving Barrow to SS would be a huge mistake. I mean the guy can barely run right now, and he's doesn't have the speed to be a Safety
