saw on TV that mccaffrey has declined all private workouts and that a team in the teens has guaranteed him they will draft him if he is still there....

we draft in the teens, right?

1 - OLB Charles Harris
2- CB Sidney Jones
2 - ILB McMillan

I'm in favor of this idea, even if Foster is there. They would need to trade back to the 22 to 25 spots to make it work. But if they are assured to get a player like Harris, then absolutely do it.

I'll also add that I really like Shaquille Griffin, who will probably be available in the 3rd. That's along with several other midround CB's (such as Teez Tabor) likely to be in the middle rounds this year.

I don't like any of the ILB's that are likely to be available in the 3rd. It's entirely possible that Cunningham/Davis/Foster/Reddick will all be gone in the 1st and then there possibly won't be a starting caliber player at all left in the draft at that position.

Although I'm not incredibly high on Raekwon McMillan, I still believe that he's a starting quality ILB.

Foster or Lamp, that's all

Maybe we're just not speaking the right language. This defense needs an elite pass rusher like Robert Mathis in his prime. Are you saying that either Simon or Sheard are that? If not, then it's still a need.

Foster is probably the 2nd best player in the draft. No way I move down if I can get him at 15.

Didn't say it wasn't a need. I said there are other needs more demanding like have a CB2 on the roster

I remember Mathis record yr a few yrs ago. I also remember Toler chasing WR into the end zone play after play after play

There are a lot of needs on this team. Not just pass rush

Lamp is one of the safer picks in the draft. We can't fuck around with the 15th pick in the draft and we have to protect Luck. After Lamp, draft all defense.
