    Love the Cunningham pick. ILB who can cover has been a huge hole. McKinney and Cushing are REALLY similar. I'm excited about Cunningham's potential as a suped up version of Mike Mohamed

    And they addressed that need last night. And just because you think another position is a greater need doesn't mean it still isn't a need. I knew this pick was going to be defense. O line is either in 3rd or 4th.

    Welp, I've gone and done it.

    Had some boring and kinda obvious take like "QBs need good OLs" and managed to get a rise out of people when I wasn't trying to...

    Good night.

    Davenport has to be the target round 3. Makes too much sense and fills a huge need.


    Otherwise get Moreau.

    Too early for Davenport IMO. If they go tackle here, I'm thinking Garcia.

    Brian Cushing will be announcing the Texans' 3rd round pick. I guess that means we aren't picking another linebacker ;):D

    Well the Patriots just traded up and took
    Antonio Garcia

    So that's one guy off the board

    Damnit!

    I'd love to get Dorian Johnson, the guard.

    The problem with waiting is there a whole lot of picks between their next two picks. If they don't get their tackle now, they will be getting Jermaine Eluemunor in the 4th. I had him penciled as a Texan after he visited with the Texans.

    Gotta be Davenport. Pretty sure he visited twice. He's massive and would be able to start at right tackle, I would think, from day one.

    May be a slight reach but he won't be there in the fourth.
