We need two new CB's. We really need a starter opposite Henderson, as Herndon was awful last season and a new Nickle. Hayden's play fell off a cliff last season and he is an UFA, who won't be brought back at his price tag. I could easily see us signing a big name Safety in free agency, taking a CB on day 2 of the draft and then taking a CB/S hybrid who could play Nickle later in the draft.

Shaun Wade rds 3-5 please.

I don't know. I watched all the OSU games last season and I don't know what happened to Wade. I watched him get absolutely torched in multiple games. Judging from last year's play, I think he had more negatives than positives. He was out of position a lot and bit on too many fakes. I just think there are better options out there.

This is a semi-deep year for the Safety position, but there is no clear cut top prospect. I just see a bunch of solid Safeties with a very similar skill sets, that can be had in the 3rd to 5th round range. None of the Safeties in this class stand out to me at all, but there are some good players available. None of them are among the top 25 players, 33 players or even 45 players in this draft though. Taking a Safety in the top 45 would be the epitome of drafting for need over talent.

Most have Moehrig as the clear cut safety.  Dude Flys all over the field and I think cam be a game changer,  33 would be good value especially if we feel he is the best safety in the class and can be a playmaker, something Wilson is not.  I dont think Urbam will have all the safeties rated the same like you do.  I depends in what Moehrig runs on his pro day if Urban will take him at 33.  I think he will look at Paris Ford as well

I like Paris Ford a lot more than Moehrig. Ford could probably be had in rounds 3 or 4. I don't view Moehrig as a game changer at all.
