Well since it's that time again.. Here's my take on what we should do in the draft.

(Realistic options)
R1, #10)
Nick Fairley DT/DE: I've been guilty of riding the Auburn bandwagon and Nick Fairley is just a beast. He'd be PERFECT as a 3-4 DE.
AJ Green WR: The most dominant receiver in College, bar none.
Von Miller OLB: I've only seen highlights, but looks to be a great pass rusher/tackling machine.
Blaine Gabbert QB: Forget the Jake Locker/Cam Newton/Ryan Mallett stuff.. Only Blaine Gabbert makes any sense at #10.

R2, #9)
Jeremy Beal OLB: VERY good 2nd round talent, and the best part... He wins!
Stefen Wisniewski C/G: I think he would solidify our offensive line along side Silverback. I think he's probably the best guy to step right into center.
Corey Liuget DT: If he does end up declaring for the draft, this guy would be a good second round option if Fairley doesn't work out in the first round.
Jake Locker QB: I hate to do this.. but Shanahan might just think he'll be able to work some magic with all the "intangibles" and the "raw talent", but don't be fooled...

R5, #13 and #28)
Kelvin Sheppard ILB: Great leader, tackling machine.. Probably won't be available.. but it's possible.
Josh Bynes ILB: Winner, very good in the box, great against the run.. Bad in coverage (think McIntosh), and terrible hands.
Vincent Brown WR: Speed + Hands + Pretty good size. We need to take a risk on a guy like this.
Tejay Johnson FS: One of the better defensive players on TCU. Good leader, fast, big, lacks top end football IQ, good depth player.
Brooks Reed OLB: Very fast and explosive on the rush, not a very good cover guy.

*Note I'm a college football freak and would love to give my input on certain players.
