And even if all these DBs we drafted last year were starters, they wouldn't have turned our season around; just like if we had drafted 3 trench guys, they wouldn't have turned our season around. Your point about how a good pass rush can make up for a bad secondary is somewhat true; and I say somewhat because a good secondary is also quite important in today's NFL.

This team has deficiences all around. We can't draft trenches just because that's the correct way to build a team. We need to take BPA, and use FA to build depth so that we can use BPA strategy.
This team has failed to draft enough OL and DL repeatedly in the first two rounds. Reverse the trend the team will benefit. We are an injury or two from having the worst LB's in the league too. Draft more of them and draft them higher in the draft. Most will bust you need to take repeated shots at it. I'd love better DB's. We can't fix both issues this draft I'd concentrate on bigs unless someone I truly coveted was available at another area.

Well, it looks quite likely that you'll get your trenches fix; some great linemen left on both sides of the ball. Can't go wrong with Su'a-Filo if we go OL, but perhaps we'll go RT, in which case I hope we select Moses or Kouandijo. On DL, my preference would be Nix. Don't really want Hageman; he's got a lot of talent, but is too inconsistent.
