Who Are Your First Two Draft Picks?

Best Pass Rusher, Best Interior Lineman, don't care in what order.

Against Arkansas, Hayward dropped three interceptions and totaled six passes broken up. For the season, he has five interceptions, 54 tackles, 6.5 tackles for a loss and nine passes broken up. Hayward has enough size and ball skills to fit any NFL defense. He also is aggressive defending the run. Hayward could be an underrated prospect who will reward the team that drafts him

3 Kevin Zeitler, G, Wisconsin
4 Derek Wolfe, DE/DT, Cincinnati

only because J Jenkins will not be their in the 2 rd

This would be a pretty nice draft. I beginning to like Hayward. I would love to get DeCastro in the 1st but that depends on what we do in FA.

Janoris Jenkins is the all-in-one best man for the job. I know some will balk about his character issues that got him removed from the Florida Gators program, but he will also bring a much needed intensity and attitude to our defense.

Yeah, let's draft a druggie with our second round pick... then we can all scream and rage and generally pitch a fit when he gets suspended...

Sorry, I plan on tuning out anybody who recommends that we draft this head case...

Excellent, excellent call... Blake is the true definition of a sleeper, IMO...

This is exactly how I was picturing it. Although it may be smarter this season to target another CB/KR in the 4th and throwing some money at a FA lineman. There's a couple available.

I'd really like to see us be aggressive in this draft, even if it means packaging some of the next years picks to move up. This years secondary free agent prospects are abysmal or i'd say we could get some help there it looks like we'll definately be building through the draft this season in the secondary.

I'd like to see two secondary additions, a pass rushing OLB, and a highly rated guard prospect in this draft. Then we could throw money at Nicks and have Zeitler/Arkin/Nagy battle for the second guard position and have some decent depth for once. We have some more space under the cap so I'd also attempt to make a fun for Calais Campbell but he may be too expensive. A decent 2nd option with be Garay from the Chargers.
