I have a sneeky feeling we are all going to be surprised come draft day, I think Gibbs and co have their own idea of what our biggest need may be. I have a feeling they believe we are fine as is at CB, I also feel they are not putting as much emphasis at WR as many of us are doing, I am starting to get a strong feeling that Merriman may be the pick, after reading an interview on him I think the skins are laying low so nobody trades up in front of us to grab him.

Although I have been looking at WR as our biggest need, I believe I was the first to bring this kid up in a thread a few months ago he defiently IMO is the good's, I compared him to Jason Taylor of the fin's, only this kid is stronger with a little more added bulk than Taylor, although he is a couple of inches shorter, he looks to me like he will be a better player than Taylor.

I still think there's enough talent in this draft to trade down and pick up a 2nd rounder but Merriman is the player and position we probably can't do that with, unless we think A. Jones is the goods.
