Charles Brown may be there (??). If we don't get the LT, then we look at Pouncey as an upgrade to Rabach, maybe trade back then Asamoah, Veldheer, Ducasse are possibilities

I commend you for laying this plan out there, but I'm struggling to see where any improvement is going to come from. It seems like mediocrity is the end game, but it will be more tolerable if Clausen is the guy providing it?
Presumably, it's the future drafts that will provide the pieces that we will actually be winning with. So, why wait?

Mediocrity is exactly what I'm looking to avoid (long term). 2010 isn't going to be a banner year with or without a franchise QB. We just differ on the evaluation of Clausen is all, you see him as equal or a slight upgrade over Campbell. I see him having a strong probability of developing into a top 10 or elite QB. Outside of the difference in Clausen, I'm all for grabbing the LT at #4 if Clausen is gone, I don't think Bradford has the upside of Clausen and wouldn't take him at #4.
