I have been trying to say this for years. Give your Oline some shotguns and you wont have to worry about your QB getting sacked.
On a serious note. Given this type of draft, I am wondering if it isnt better to go with less needed positions early. There will probably be a run on DB's fairly early. And round 2 through round 4 or 5 rated safeties, at least, arent that dramatically different. Some teams may overlook some positions to get in on the run of DB's. We can still find decent ones in the middle rounds, but may be able to get some good talent that others passed on just because they werent a DB that a team had to get now instead of waiting.
Also with the glut of DB's that will go in this draft, there is a very good chance that come time for training camp cuts, there could be some good veteran DB's getting cut and looking at minimum contracts for one year just to have a job. Im not convinced that if we dont draft DB's in rounds 2, 3, and 4, that it will be complete doom and gloom for our secondary. Not that I want to go this route, but we can probably upgrade the safety position 5 days before the season starts and have much better safety play than we had last year.
