Ummm...as far as using all the picks on defense. I don't know, they probably use at least the top two on defense, I would think. Maybe the last two on offense somewhere like along the o-line or a gem of TE would be nice.
Things change on draft day. I could easily see us moving down a bit and picking up a couple of picks. It's very possible.
You have to figure Brady Quinn will likely be the first pick to the Raiders. By the time we pick, it's going to be very tempting not to pass on the chance to get the kid from Penn St or Branch or Woodley (Michigan).

If they can lock up Wade that would be great - I just fear that he will command huge money and with our starters on the line making as much as they are - I don't think they can give Wade a huge salary. I'd also like to see us get one more lineman to help with depth at Center/Guard.
I know the guys that teams pick in rounds 5-7 don't always make the team - but if you do land one or two that are impact players I would think that this would really help with dealing with the salary cap because typically these contracts for these guys are relatively small compared to a first rounder.
