I'm torn on the wideout issue. What are we lacking more: A big play WR? Or a NT that can clog the middle and anchor the D?

No question NT.

but is there a nose tackle that is worthy of a first rounder this year? i cant think of one off the top of my head. i think we may go through free agency to fill that need. at this point, im thinking wide receiver, there are a lot of good ones this year most likely in the first round. green, blackmon, julio jones, baldwin, etc.

Keep Grossman and sign him to a 1 year extension for next season to see how he plays in a full year. Would use either the 1st or 2nd round pick to get a solid offensive lineman. Then all the other picks take the best players available regardless of position. There isnt a position where we dont need help. Might even be good to trade back in the 1st round and try to collect more picks. We need players.

We have the 2nd rounder for 2011. What we lost was the pick that was eventually used on Nate Allen.

Yes..I was incorrect. Its the 3rd/4th round pick I believe we are short on the 2011 draft for dmac/brown.

trade back would definitely be the best option, but easier said than done, as usual.

I talked to a former scout the other day who said "Locker's a great fit for a west coast offense. Reminds me a lot of McNabb" I kinda had to laugh

[Hog1]

Line play is where it's at! Reinforcing our O-line will make all the skill positions look much improved. Not the total answer at reciever, but.......AND we have to get some help in the middle on D.

I'm hoping we can pick up Andrew Luck if we're in the top 8

No chance. With all the top picking teams that need a QB he will be gone in the first 2-3 picks, at worst. Probably 1 overall. We would have to trade up and give up more draft picks and I don't think anyone wants to do that. If we were going to do it we should have done it last year with Bradford. That's why I posed the question earlier about Cam Newton. I think he might, MIGHT, be someone who could slip down to around the 8-10 area where we might have a shot. He was still there, does anyone think Shanny would bite? Would he be a good scheme fit or another Jason Campbell?

Only if we value such things like Al Davis does.

kellen moore perhaps? or we trade down and parlay that pick into a first and maybe a few second round picks. Alls I can say is, I am thoroughly disgusted by Shanahan and Allen's first year, I had so much faith in these guys and they have shown themselves to be just as incompetent as the previous bunch. I am all for giving them another year or two to prove themselves but the Jammal Brown trade was a bust, they didn't upgrade the defense, wasted a few picks on McNabb, just an awful performance by the front office.

Yes some mistakes were made, but bad move picking Williams over Okung? I think not. Rome was not built in a day. Whose to say Brown can't come back and have a good year next year?
