I don't want Thibs within three states of the Jags.  Not only is the diva attitude evident, he is too much in his emotions.  I watched the combine. He simply quit and shut down when he didn't post as good a 40 time as he expected.  There was no strategy to wait til his pro day.  He had said he was doing the drills and then pouted and quit.

Now, Wigg makes a couple of legitimate points about Hutch, too.  But if you become convinced he is not worthy of #1, I would do one of three things:  I'd take Neal because most of the analysts agree he is going to be as good as any of the tackles that went in the draft the last couple of years.  Or I'd trade down within the top 10.  Or I'd take Travon Walker.  I'm not taking a safety at #1.  The positional value just isn't there.

Wigg's argument about the one year of production is compelling, until you realize Burrow really only had on year of production and he turned out okay. 

To me, Hutch doesn't have to be all world for him to be an asset for us.  If he becomes a Ryan Kerrigan level player for us, we'll be in good shape.  What can't happen is he become another Chaisson for us.  That would be disastrous.
