We are going to move to a 3-4.

Therefore, Aaron Curry can rush the passer.

It's really quite simple.

So is there anyone else that thinks Curry could thrive in a 3-4? If he's as well rounded as everyone seems to think, would his versatility be the kind of thing that Pioli looks for? Are there other options that would be around later on? I think Mecca touched on this earlier, but I hadn't heard many names or anyone else weigh in on it. As far as QBs, who would be around in the 2nd or 3rd? If we pass on QB with the first pick, I would be shocked if we didn't take one in the next couple of rounds. It's such a glaring position of need for us.

Hypothetically what if he had DT type attributes? DT meaning Derrick Thomas

That's completely different because then that would make him a pass rusher.

We wouldn't get a QB then we'd be stuck between guys like Nate Davis and Rhett Bomar..the 1st 3 are all going in the 1st round.

Plus I think Aaron Curry is a MLB in a 3-4.

To play devil's advocate, what if both QB's go 1 and 2. What's your board then.

Really? I hadn't heard Freeman's name creep into the first round until recently (not that I've been that impressed with what I've seen on him). What's the story on Bomar?

What makes Sanchez worth a 3rd pick? He probably wont even play for a year or 2 if ever. 16 games dont = the 3rd pick. He should have stayed in school another year. He's too green.

Not many experts have Sanchez worth a top 3 pick. We need a LB that will start this season more than a QB on the bench.

We can get a green developmental QB later in the draft for the bench.

Because it's a very weak draft at the top and he's seen as a safe pick. Any other year and he's probably going in the 12-15 range.

He was 12-20 in every single mock there was till Mike Mayock sucked his dick on NFL network.

There's a reason that the QB class this year is Stafford/Sanchez-----/Freeman------------/everyone else.

These guys have all the physical tools to succeed.

You are more likely to get Quincy Carter than Tom Brady with late round developmental prospects.

I think Crazy either likes to argue or he was a big fan of the Carl years.

Interesting comparison: who do you guys think is a better LB Aaron Curry or AJ Hawk. Hawk was the last LB taken in top 5.
