We currently have 3 first round picks (by us) on offense, and one is hurt. Given that we are already without a second round pick next year and nearly maxed out from a cap standpoint, I don't know that we can afford, to go get somebody that is a proven commodity at this point. If there is a guy cut, or if someone is flashing in practice, go ahead and give it a try, but I don't see any way you deal for someone this year or target one in the first unless one falls right in your lap who is the perfect mix of need and value.

Two firsts, two seconds, and two thirds spent on a position group that is massively underperforming. In fact, OL is the new DL. Additionally, having Glenn Dorsey (5th overall), Jon Baldwin (1st), javier Arenas (2nd) and Tony Moeaki (3rd) not even on the team anymore is just sickening. Pioli hit homeruns with a couple of guys, but he struck the **** out with the rest of his picks. I'll take a team hitting consistent doubles over that any day. |

Pioli liked to draft by the pound, and he wanted character guys who were part of the right 53. Berry was not his type of player from a size/position standpoint...but he took him. Houston was not his type of player from a character standpoint...but he took him. Poe was a swing for the fences boom/bust guy...but he took him. THOSE GUYS are the core of our defense. The "solid double" picks are what get you Eric Fisher, Tyson Jackson, Jonathan Baldwin, etc. None of those guys had "potential superstar or massive bust" written all over them. They all looked like 10 year solid starters. I'd take Marcus Cooper over any of them. A few homeruns can make up for a lot of busts, especially when you can supplement your roster with savvy waiver moves, free agent pick ups, etc.
