It's nice to get some real insider meat regarding the draft, rather than just having to pick at the same bones all the time.

I do like the sounds of LaRon Landry and he'd be a good addition over the long-term for us, but I agree with JLC, we're not going to have much of a defense this year if we don't help out the D-Line. Guys like Okoye or Anderson would be good long-term solutions at a position of greater need.

I'm torn. I really want to see us get Amobi Okoye, so I don't really like the idea of trading anywhere below Atlanta at 8. With Bobby Petrino sitting there at 8, I think he'd take Okoye over Landry if given the chance, just my hunch. But then again, it'd be pretty nice to drop down to 9 or something and get Jamaal Anderson and then pick up a 2nd or 3rd rounder to draft a serious G or something like that. As much as I want Okoye because DT is a bigger need than DE, we have other holes than just along our D-Line. I'm not OK with Todd Wade as a long term solution at G.
