Are we adressing our D-line?

The question is, is Okoye valuable enough to another team that he could be taken before the #8 pick, assuming we do trade places with Houston?

The way his stock seems to be rising, especially on this board, let's hope he's still there if we trade down.

i think this board and fans in general are a bit higher on him than the scouts/teams are. I mean, he's not close to the best DT prospect ever, but he is a solid first rounder that looks promising. still more potential than production thusfar though, which the teams probably see more clearly.

I mean, if i could have any one player this year, it'd be calvin johnson, and the #2 choice wouldn't even be in the same stratosphere. outside of that though, you've got a good group of players across a bunch of positions, including a completely tangled (but deep) DL group and a deep, clear pecking order at WR.
