Can't go thru another season waiting until the 10th game to see one of our WR catch a TD pass.

We need a DE bad too.

O Line can wait and we can still get a quality player in the 3rd round or lower.

1st round = CB, DE, DT, WR

I think last years draft showed that the right rookies can be Pro Bowlers at tough positions if given the opportunity:

RB - Adrian Petersen (Pro Bowl)
OT - Joe Thomas (Pro Bowl)
WR - Dwayne Bowe
RB - Marshawn Lynch
S - Laron Landry
CB - Antonio Cromartie
LB - Patrick Willis
CB - Aaron Ross
WR -Anthony Gonzalez
OG - Tony Ugoh

I just think we need to not draft players like Rod Gardner, Taylor Jacobs, Andre Johnson, Michael Westbrook, Tom Carter, Desmond Howard or Bobby Wilson in the first or second rounds. I think we've done well recently in the 1st with Samuels, ST, and Landry but we have been burned repeatedly with WR's that high
