I'm not high on taking a CB early when you're running a Cover 2, but Ross or Revis would be fine if they develop into Pro Bowl caliber players.

Setting aside the whole Staley pissing match for a second, I'm not sure I trust our talent evaluators when it comes to offensive linemen lately. Or maybe it's just Solari. Either way, we get these guys with big upside and they never develop. We seem to do much better with known quantities.
I agree on Meachem. Wouldn't mind that at all.
I know I take alot of heat because of it, but I still like Harrell. I think his injuries fall into the "freak" category moreso than the "trend" and he proved with his bench press at the combine that he's fully healed. He has tremendous physical talent AND he's got a good work ethic. He would be a nice compliment to Hali, IMO.
I'm also not high on taking a CB for the same reason. It's a Cover 2. But we gotta take one somewhere because our starters are OLD. So if they decide to do it in the first, I'm ok with it, as long as it's not Aaron Ross.
