The Gregg Williams defense needs great CB play to function, and I think it would be wise to shore it up with the 2nd rounder. From what I understand, there are a few real good corners available in the 2nd round.

There's more than one way to skin a cat though. We could just try to sign a temporary nickel this year, draft a LB with our 2nd rounder, and then worry about Springs' replacement later. I guess I'm just thinking it would be nice to take advantage of the CB depth now while it's there. Our 2nd rounder could yield a stud at CB.

There are a lot of good DB's in the 2nd round, but no studs. We went high at that position last year with Carlos Rogers, so IMO it's not a good idea to use another high pick on a CB.

I think it is when you have Ade Jimoh as your nickel and your #1 CB is getting old. What you did last year in the draft has nothing to do with what you should do this year. You draft based on best fit for your team, and it just so happens we need another CB.

Again, if we fill the nickel role in free agency, and then worry about Springs' replacement later, that's fine with me. Then we can draft a linebacker and I'll feel good. But I think nickel corner is a bigger priority for us than LB, given that I think Clemons is more capable at his position than Jimoh is at his.
