IF we decide the pass rusher class is deep enough to take one in the second round, then maybe we should consider something a bit different in the first round (I'm bracing myself for the howls of protest, but bear with me...)


How about Shaq Thompson ? This guy makes plays happen and would be a big improvement for us at linebacker. Read this and tell me why you wouldn't want him in teal...

Could be our answer to Bobby Wagner ?


If Ray, Fowler and Gregory all come with question marks and we can get someone like Orchard in round two then why not go for the big playmaker ?


And I'm expecting to get replies along the lines of "only if we trade down" - but can you really justify that ? Why is he a good player, worth picking at, say 8, but not at 3 ? (Assuming there is no-one we want more at 3)
