Well, just because I don't want it to happen doesn't mea I don't see the possible value.

What is worth more - stopping those plays that cost us at minimum three wins?

Or having a WR to groom behind TO and Glenn? A corner to groom behind Henry and Glenn? A RB to carry the load, and give us more consistency than Julius?

That probably depends on whether or not you think (for sure) that Hamlin and Watkins can be legit back there.

I'm certainly more confident with those two than Killer and Watkins - but it still worries me. Again, I think if you're listing our positions from weakest to strongest, you could put DE and FS as 1a and 1b.

Would you disagree?

I would rather a CB before FS.

We have zero depth besides Glenn and he is only getting older.

Looking into the near future, our WRs and CBs are getting old along with Ferguson.

I would rather get the 19 year old NT, a pass rusher, a CB, and even a WR before we touch a FS.

So as you can see, its gonna be ahrd to disappoint me come draft day.

I feel the same way. I don't think we're allowed to draft 19 year olds, but besides that I agree. ;) (unless he graduated WAY early)

There's pretty much nothing they can do (outside of drafting Greg Olsen in the first) that would upset me. Well, except for passing on a great RB prospect.

Yeah yeah, Amobi Okoye, he'll be 20 or just turned, whatever :p:

Thats true though, TE would be stupid. He'll be gone before us anyway.

What about taking a flier on this guy in the 7th round as our FS of the future?

He's 7'7" and Watkins is only 6'5". That means he's 18% better !!!!
