Duke Williams and Phillip Thomas, which is why I mentioned them. One other safety and a few TEs-all whose names I can't recall right now

I'm really not that high on either Duke or Thomas. But gun to my head I'd take Thomas based on his all American play this year.

Earthquake we usually agree on players, check out DJ Swearinger tell me what you think.

I have watched Mr. Swearinger since he first got to South Carolina. I like him, he is a very rangy FS who plays physical, good tackler,excellent hitter, above average ball skills, but he can be reckless and sometimes gets lost in coverage but I would like him as well.

He is a faster safety as well, which I love.

I think Johnathan Cyprien one of the most physically gifted S in this draft. His range is astounding and he plays full speed every down. He has power that he uses very well with shedding blocks and driving through the ball carrier. I see Brian Dawkins/Gholston. I believe he can start day 1 too. Him and DJ Swearinger in the same backfield would be a dream. Both can cover, both flies around, both are playmakers, and both drops the boom on WRs. If we can get a CB in FA and maybe RT those 2 would be 2 of the top 3 of our picks.

I'm a believer that building a team requires FA, the draft, and a few smart trades. But this season I think it's all about the draft for the Skins. That's because there is a very thin crop of FA's, IMO, we don't have the draft picks to make trades (there are few player-for-player trades in the NFL these days), and (this is the good news) this year's draft is deep in the positions where we have the greatest perceived needs.

This draft looks to be deep at safety and CB and deep enough for our purposes at OT.

At safety there are numerous players who could help us soon: Kenny Vaccaro, TJ McDonald, Phillip Thomas, Duke Williams, Rambo Bacarri, DJ Swearinger, David Amerson and more. We'll get a good safety in this draft, maybe even two good safeties. Who wouldn't want a guy named Duke or a guy named Rambo at safety?

There are also a number of good prospects at CB: Desmond Trufant, Jordan Poyer, Robert Alford, Jonathan Cyprien, and others. We have a chance of getting a good CB, as well.

At OT, there are some decent prospects who we might be able to draft after Eric Fisher and Lane Johnson are gone: Xavier Nixon, Oday Aboushi, David Quessenberry, Kyle Long, and possibly others.
