I think all three 2nd round choices will be just fine in the NFL, but at what cost?

As for Peppers, message boards around the interwebs are suggesting Colt Brennan be offered up in a deal for Peppers

I agree. That's the key. And in an effort to sway this thread back to Peppers, we really should draft a D-lineman sometime earlier than the 5th round for once this decade. I think we'd be looking much better if those 3 2nd round picks had been (in no particular order) OL, DL, WR.
