Your grade of each individual pick in our draft.

Hate it all you want, OTW...however, you are dead wrong on your assessment of the value of great five techs in a 3-4.

We do need off-the-corner pressure...yes, I couldn't agree more. Who was that person in the draft and who was going to protect that guy from the five tech? The fact is that you can't just find any tomato can to play that position. Could you get lucky down in the middle rounds? Yes, you could at any position. However, the odds are against you.

I don't think this is the best draft by a long shot, but I think Pioli put some key guys in place.

I do know this, if you can't stop the other team, the rest of it really doesn't matter. We found that out pretty clearly last year. As bad as our o-line was, KC COULD score out of that hybrid spread. We couldn't stop anybody. The defense is job #1 right now.

Let's see how things look in a month or two...more moves are coming.
