The Official 2007 Draft Discussion Thread

i do not believe that any defensive player available yesterday was worthy of the 6th pick other than landry....safety was a need, is dline a need yes, but let make a couple things clear on that too. to be a good defensive tackle in the league you need size and strength. and by size i mean wide not really tall. there are a bunch of good defensive tackles in this league that were not number 6 picks and or first rounders. i strongly believe in building from the two lines then going else where except when you have a player who is unbelievable at making plays and more than likely the best football player available. i would have taken cj if we could have traded up to get him. there are just 1-5 players every year who are flat out studs and make plays all over the field for you and landry was one of two this year and we got him, great pick......in the later rounds we need to address the dline but situational. get a massive dt for 1st and second down or get a quick and stong tackle for passing downs.....or a edge rusher who can only speed rush, or a massive de to eat up blocks on a bltiz. thats how you address the dline need now, just quit complaining about whats going on, its very frustrating reading posts that come across so negative towards the skins.
