Parsons for me. I think he's the best defensive player in the draft. Why would a team that desperately needs help on defense pass on the best defensive player in the entire draft?

I think it's a win win. It sounds like if Pitts falls he could be the guy and maybe they're right, I saw one write up say he's the definition of a mismatch, too tall for CBs and to good for LBs. I saw another that said in five years he may be the best player from this years draft. Otherwise we should get a good player or a good player and another day two pick.
Its a no brainer to me... Lets not pick a Mo Claiborne and pass up a Bobby Wagner..
Why was Claiborne not a good pick? And I'm talking at the time of the draft. Claiborne was ranked the no. 1 or no. 2 cornerback available by the vast majority of draft people.
Did he "pan out"? No, due to injuries. But that's 20/20 hindsight, which is always correct....
We are guaranteed a good player. Think it will come down to Pitts, Slater or a corner.Im going Farley here
Out of the top group either Pitts or 1 of the receivers has the best chance to slide to 10. Even if they don't a choice of Slater, Farley/Surtain, Parsons is very good.This is just strictly BPA but Parsons and Slater are so close, have to hope Denver goes Parsons at 9.
Parsons
Slater
Farley
Surtain - can see him dropping a few spots.
Those 4 are all quality players. If Slater, Farley/Surtain/Parsons are there, we will get a very good player. I think Pitts or a Wide Receiver might slide where either Slater or a corner goes before us.Slater 1 Farley 2 Surtain 3 Parsons 4. I would not complain with the pick. The team would improve with any of these guys.
Got a trade back scenario for you. The Patriots just signed Cam for another year. If Lance is there at 10 the Patriots would be the perfect trade partner.
1. Trade down
2. Trade down
3. Trade down
4. anything else

I definitely look to the Patriots as an interesting trade partner. The thing that gives me pause is that It's an unusual year for them: they only have 9 picks instead of their usual 47 or so. Moving from 15-10 would cost no more than their 2nd, but they already don't have their regular 3rd round pick, and it's not very Belechick-like to leave himself with so few picks. Certainly a possible trade available and a team with a need though, depending on how the draft falls.Slater 1 Farley 2 Surtain 3 Parsons 4. I would not complain with the pick.

I'm high on both Slater, Farley, but you know this front office loves those wow offensive playmakers.I am thinking like you Slater is 6’4 and more then two teams in front of us need offensive tackles. If Farley runs low 4.3 I think he might get picked early too. I want to see how Pitts runs before I say he is a top 7 pick. D. Smith is small and Waddle just had a Dak injury. He did not look right in the Championship game. Of course Cavanaugh wants us to go 4 wide.
If trade down and acquire mid- late 2nd, than I would strongly consider this.Trade down then Horn or Farley.
