Now I'm not preaching draft Curry above all else I was pointing out that Curry is alot more then "a cover backer."

god. looking back at the 2005 draft, some real juggernauts went above dj.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2005_NFL_Draft
alex smith, cedric benson, pacman, troy williamson, mike williamson, I could go on and on.
and it's funny... who did DJ go after (LB wise)? ware and merriman (both rushbackers) AND thomas davis (meaning dj wasn't even the first cover backer taken).
so yeah--I don't give a shit HOW good a prospect the OLB (cover-backer) is... I'm not taking him top three.
