Would you draft Marshal Yanda, Evan Mathis, Steve Hutchinson, Russ Grimm, Larry Allen at the #5 spot?

I'd go out on a limb and say hell yeah. If he turns into a all-pro guard, this selection won't be questioned.

I'm not saying he won't be a very good, possibly All Pro guard, but I'd rather have Suh, Sapp, or Strahan over Grimm, Mathis, Larry Allen, etc. Dominant D-Line guys have to be planned around by OCs, and they literally can single handedly change games. But honestly who cares, besides Trent our O-line sucked last year so I'm not devastated by the pick. (Until I watch Williams on the Jets next year...)
