We got Beasley and Dunbar as CFAs that year, along with Leary. And Crawford, Wilber, and Hanna in the draft. And Mo. Not world-beaters, but that's 5 role players and two starters. Not terrible.

To the OP, Kuechly is obvious winner in that first round if we're getting a re-do. There are several picks I like less than Claiborne in that round, though.

Udfa's aren't draft picks though.

I would give up Claiborne and take Poe and then grab Bobby Wagner in the 2nd round. There are times when I really think Wagner is every bit as good as Kuechly.

That was in response to him citing Leary, who also was a CFA and not a draft pick. Plus, who we foolin'? Those players were all in that college draft, were all evaluated by the college scouts. Some of them were considered better players and had higher grades by teams that didn't take them just because they thought they had a better chance to make it all the way to free agency. It's all part of the exact same talent acquisition process.

I hate the Seahawks. Although, I am a semi fan since I've family in Washington. They got Bruce Irvin 1st, Bobby Wagner 2nd, Russell Wilson 3rd. 3 Starter caliber players. The only decent production we got out of that whole draft was Leary. :/ Can't win it every year I guess.

Actually, they're about to write off Irvin. He's a bust for a first-round pick.

What pick would you replace and who would you pick.

Note: If you elect not to do a trade, who would pick at the original spot and who would you pick with the pick we gave up

Like most here I'm replacing Mo Claiborne with any of the following:

Luke Kuechly
Dontari Poe
Fletcher Cox
Bruce Irvin
David DeCastro
Kevin Zeitler
Cordy Glenn
Bobby Wagner
Zach Brown
Lavonte David

As a linebacker, but I think he would be an improvement over what we have at LDE.

Wagner, and it's not even close. He's better than Kuechly, in my opinion.

For me, either would be an improvement over what we got...and it's not even close.

Nope it was only a rumor. That year for me it was Tyron, Watt, or Fairley... I was with the Gabe man crush but not at 9. That year i believe JJ listen to JG and pick Smith.
