so hold off on I.L.B. this year and draft one in round 1 or 2 the following year would be better IMO and use our other picks this year for more pressing needs like O-line and N.T., D.E., S.S., Etc. and hold off on I.L.B. because we can, and because we have more pressing needs to fix for a superbowl run in 2009 IMO, since no one we draft is gonna beat out Zach Thomas or Bradie James for starting time in 2009, why not wait till the following year to address the position while using our 09' picks that would get a lot more playing time and positions of need for us in the positions I mentioned above?
Would it kill us to wait one more year to pick an I.L.B.?
I don't think it will hurt us at all since Zach and James will both be here for next year, and Carp and Burnett aren't bad as far as BACKUPS go, so I think we can hold off on that position, then in 2010, really upgrade it with a stud I.L.B. in round 1.
