Dude, all I am saying is that we have more pressing needs than OLB, particularly given how bad our O-line was last year (and secondary). I don't think that's an unreasonable conclusion, and I don't think drafting for need is a bad approach either.

Don't get me wrong -- I get the best player available approach too, but does anyone think this guy is that? The write-ups on hims are solid, projecting him as a 2-3 round player, suggesting that we picked him in about the right spot -- but I haven't seen anything yet that suggests we got great value or anything approaching a steal (time will tell). He seems like more of a depth signing to me -- something we can't afford with the holes we have and so few picks.

BTW, I think the Packers are having a good draft -- I really like the WR out of Fresno St. they picked up. I have a feeling that guy will be great (although having Aaron Rodgers throw the ball your way helps a lot).
