    They are amazing players with high ceilings. I cant deny that. But that doesn't make what they do any more important. Kuechly wont be getting a $100,000,000 contract. An ILB isn't worth that. You can pickup a nice ILB at a reasonable price. There are plenty of solid players to go around at that position. The league is full of 2nd tier ILB's, like Cushing and Lee.

    The Thomas/Chancellor votes are insane to me. They just don't do enough on the field to warrant using your 1 magic wish on.

    There isn't a GM in the league that wouldn't take a CB/DL/34OLB.

    Agreed. I think he's even better than Sherman.

    This. I just want another 10 JJ's...in various sizes, of course, so they could cover all of the positions.

    I think Joe Haden is the best cover corner in football but I would take Patrick Paterson because he's a pro bowl caliber player on defense and special teams, and he would be the 2nd best receiver on this team right now...!!! He's a playmaker in all three phases of the game.

    Kam chancellor or richard sherman. Sherman is the best and smartest corner in the nfl. Chancellor can cover any position in the field and is crazy versatile

    Adding a corner or a safety wouldn't really help if the Texans were still incapable of generating a pass rush without blitzing.

    Best chance of getting another one of those is sitting at #1 in the draft right now.
    If Texans score a nice trade offer, I would not hesitate and take Khalil Mack - has a great pass rush as well.
