Quote:I think the problem with that strategy is that so many teams in the top ten need pass rushers, if we traded down too far, we'd likely miss out on most of them.

 

To me, one ot the more enticing possibilities is getting 13 and 31 from New Orleans.

 

But I think under that scenario, all of the top tier LEO candidates (Fowler, Ray, Beasley, Gregory) will all be off the board by 13.

 

Prior to yesterday, I'd envisioned landing a guy like Trae Waynes at 13.  Now, I would think OT.

 

They crazy thing about all these rush OLBs, is that since most if not all are "tweeners" - the best (or at least the best value) may not be found at the top.

 

There are some sleepers out there as well like Max Valles that might be found much later.  Some raw talent at the position.

 

That way if we do go somewhere other than pass rush for the first two or three picks, we still may be in play for a pass rusher later.
