I would not pick a WR with the 2nd round pick, if a great player slips to the second round I take him... otherwise trade down, and add picks . They still need help everywhere.

CBs -
Jason Verrett -TCU
Kyle Fuller - VT
Bradley Roby - OSU

And let me say this. I am not as opposed to a 2nd round pick on a very high quality receiver, if we are certain he is going to pan out, as I am talking about taking a TE in the 3rd/4th. Memories of Thomas/Kelly from a few years ago still brings back nightmares.

Yes this league is set up to require multiple talents at receiver to do anything prolific with your offense. But it has also shown you need a shut down secondary to stop those prolific offenses, and as Seattle has just shown us, defense wins championships even against the likes of the immortal Peyton Manning.

As others have said, Oline and secondary are our two biggest areas of need. We struck out on Browner, Talib, Thurmond, and probably others I don't even know about. Hatcher was a good signing and I would love to bring in Penn (hope that pans out tomorrow). Secondary is going to have to be addressed. How many times/people pissed and moaned about our porous secondary last year watching meriweather knock himself out and have CB's toasted like marshmallows over a campfire? We need to draft at least one CS and Safety, maybe two, for me to be happy.

Verrett is 5'9" a great productive athlete, injury problems... torn labrum..... maybe if he is there

Roby arrested for a bar fight, and suspended in 2013...."Roby had a forgettable senior season with poor performances in big games" No Thanks

Fuller rated #59... 24 tackles and 2 interceptions in 2013... sports hernia... not in the early second round

Again I never said WR or TE in the second, I like a 2 TE package, we already have one very good one, a second would add a lot to the offense

best option is probably trade down
