may be the guy, I see them taking over a qb at six if the big three defenders gone. Most talented defender with chance to be something special after the big three. A case could be made for Devin White, but many rumors show Tampa has zeroed in on him.

I know our asshats have been accurate in the past, but this year seems to be different. At least in my opinion. Nobody knew our biggest star was getting trade. Nobody knew we were signing Golden Tate. Nobody knew we were giving Shep a 40+ million dollar extension.

After listening to 30 minutes of Dave Gettleman Im more convinced than ever theyll go defense at 6. As for 17, it might depend on what QBasts that long ... and theres still a good chance they draft another position there instead.

I agree with hill and carter. However, Ogeltree tho solid veteran, is overpaid. Kennard was a better player than Kareem Martin, Oh and he signed Curtis Riley, poor depth at corner, and then traded away pieces before the deadline, so of course the defense is going to suffer.
