Heath Miller-Trade up question

First off a pass catching CB is less valuable than a starting CB. I would argue a weakness at CB is worse off than a total lack of receiving production at the TE spot. So by that measure CB is a bigger need. An EVEN BIGGER need is at WR. We have no proven #1 WR...and were not talking about a bunch of second year players. These are guys who have some upside but we can't count on them. Williams is going to be better than all of them. FIll the WR with him if he is there.

I agree. Heath Miller is not going to be the best available player unless we trade down to the end of the first round at best. If there is a real play maker available when we pick then we take him because we go with the "best-available-player".
