I think Detroit takes Stafford and St Louis takes Smith. So that leaves us Crabtree and Curry. I think there will be a big debate about who to take, but I believe we take Curry. There is alot of talk of Michael Johson the DE from Georgia Tech dropping to the beginning of the second round if this happens I think we would take him.

Any thoughts?

I have two thoughts. 1. Kick yourself in the balls until you can no longer stand up. Then have someone else continue kicking your balls until they can no longer stand. 2. Give me $110 so I can re-educate you.

I close my eyes; only for a moment, then the moment's gone.

The same brains that wanted Gholston top 5 last year...

Anyway the guy is more than just a cover corner. If he's good player and there arent 5 guys better than him (pretty much the universal view of his talent) then he is a consideration. I dont hear the Steelers complaining about having supperior linebacker play. DT didnt hurt us at #4 either.

Its not like he's a Guard or anything....:D

250 lb cover LB? The only place I've seen that is on chiefsplanet.

If you take Aaron Curry that high there is no way for him to ever justify his pick, he'd literally have to be a 15 sack player and he's not that kind of LB..

So now you're looking at Keith Bulluck or Derrick Brooks and even if he became that...having the best non rushing OLB in the league is like saying you're the smartest person with down syndrome.

Stafford, Sanchez and Malcolm Jenkins, that's it.

Curry is a 5 star prospect on every evaluation I've seen thus far outside of the QB at all cost crowd on this BB. He's also being called the best LB prospect in years. I really think people are dogging him to bolster their QB at any cost argument.

he isn't as good as patrick willis, imo...and that dude went 11th....

Ware went 11th....is he as good as him?

Merriman went 12th....is he really as good as him?

honest questions...

No he is not.

That being said, doesn't it appear the rushing OLB's are being undervalued in the first round?

a bit, yes...

but if you aren't a rush backer, or a stud MLB, then it is hard to see top 5 value....which appears to be the case here...

MLB it's tough to justify. But if it's considered good value to take a 4-3 DE in the top of a draft, I would think a 3-4 OLB would be considered high value. Who would you rather have a Ware or healthy Merricman or would you rahter have the best WR or best RB in the league (take your pick).

Unless that WR is Larry Fitzgerald or that RB is Adrian Peterson, then I'd take Ware everytime.

I don't think I would take either of them over Ware or a healthy Merriman, as great of players as they are.

But you get the point. RB's and WR are often consider top 5 picks, so why shouldn't an OLB in a 3-4?

I can't argue for or against Curry.

I haven't seen enough of him to draw any conclusions.

However, if he isn't a guy who can get double digit sacks on a regular basis, as some have suggested, then he wouldn't be a top 5 value pick.
