We will draft a CB or DT with our first pick

I still say that LB is where you have to pick. You have to plan in case Washington goes down. As it stands right now, if Washington goes down, their LB's suck.

I would say that we are fine at a lot of positions until our best guy goes down. LB, DT, TE, OT, OG, C are all positions where as long as we stay healthy, we won't have any problems. The depth is there and we have guys who can spot start, but if one of the starters at the aforementioned positions goes down (for a significant period of time, such as the rest of the year), we don't have much to rely on outside of a strong system (which is a great ally, don't get me wrong). But that's the reason that the 2nd rounder must be spent at one of those positions.

Injuries are a crapshoot, and in many cases the X factor in professional football, and you want to be as close as prepared for anything as possible.

So that's my criteria for this pick. Get a guy you would feel comfortable starting in the playoffs as a rookie at one of those positions.

I do stress over this, but undoubtably, Gibbs and co. have already realized what I just stated a long time ago, and we as fans have nothing to worry about.
