I'm not expecting any miracles, but I think this could cause a player of greater quality to drop to us than before. I still don't have any idea what player that may be, or what position they'd play though.

It could and it counldn't. Remember that teams have their own views and values for certain players. So it may not have much effect on us because Bush will still go in the top five. Everyone else according to draft boards will follow. It would take several suprises to actually effect us late int the second round.
