Re: who we gonna get?

I think we should draft a CB. Williams or Edwards probly wont be available and eventhough CBs might not usually perform great in their rookie seasons, in 2 yrs or so we should have a very solid backfield. A guy like Pacman will definitely eat up any receivers thrown at him in the future and with springs aging a bit, a CB would be a good way to go. LB Derrick Johnson is also a great option but he might not be around by the time we get to pick. If these two are not there for us, trading down would be our best option since we could pick up two solid guys such as Williamson, Matt Jones, or even TE Heath Miller.

Re: who we gonna get?

Given our cap situation this year the logical call would be to start dealing down, I am very happy not to know what direction we are going, I said it many times allowing teams to get a read on who and what your drafting makes you very weak as far as picking up draft picks. Teams are more likly to stay put if they figure your drafting a certain player or position, if they don't know you have a chance of grabbing more draft picks and still getting your man. hopefully they can continue to keep their big mouths shut.


With that said I don't know who they will pick but my draft strategy would be to deal down to the middle of the 1st obtaining an early second and draft the best CB available, then in the second I would draft V. Jackson then I would go after a center/guard to backup and groom as a future starter.

I really do enjoy the draft! :headbange

Why? You dont' end up paying too much for your rookies the first year. A #9 pick will hardly be a burden on our cap. There are other more appropriate reasons to trade down though. Especially if an impact player isn't available at #9.
