ILB in the draft

[silverbear]

I sure am glad the Boys are semi-set with Sean Lee, Bruce Carter and Dan Connor, because there's not much to like in the draft at ILB... there's no need to reach for a marginal talent in the first 3 rounds...

In the 4th round, the Boys could use one of their picks on James-Michael Johnson from Nevada... even that might be a little too early, though...

In the 7th round, they could look at Jerry Franklin from Arkansas or a sleeper, Korey Toomer from Idaho... if I didn't have my heart set on drafting a big NT in the 7th, I'd surely be in favor of drafting either of these kids...

I don't even see much that interests me in the group of likely undrafted rookie free agent ILBs... this is a lousy year for that position...

Kendricks will be the best ILB out of this draft besides Kuechly.

We need to trade up in the first round and take Burfict.

I'd have to think hard about Kuechly if he dropped to #14. But yeah, other than him, the value just isn't there at the ILB position in round one.
