Eric Berry vs. Taylor Mays

No, I'm not giving up on this season. This team isn't going to the playoffs. Plain and simple. But I'm still going to watch them and be encouraged by any progress I see. So if you want to bitch at me for starting a draft thread this early, go **** yourself in the eye with a sharp stick.

I've seen a couple Tennessee and USC games from last season. Taylor Mays looks MUCH better to me. He hits hard, wraps up, and is an athletic freak. Most boards I see though have Berry going before him. Granted, I'm not an NFL talent scout, but why is that?

Also, it would seem to me that this defense needs a big playmaker and that Taylor Mays is the perfect kind of athlete to fill that position versus a guy like Berry. Which one would be best for this team if we had an opportunity to draft either player this spring?

Berry has better ball skills than Mays and over his collegiate career has been more of a playmaker. Now, that could be due to what each is asked to do.

And how about if we use that 1st rounder on a talented playmaker that could instantly turn this defense into something special?

I didn't say once in a lifetime. I said once in a generation. Further, albert doesn't profile as a rt. Further still, albert is definitely a fit at lt. He just needs to adjust to his new body and he will be back to last year form if not better.

Albert is such a fit at LT that he wasn't even the left tackle on his college team. I like Albert. He's one of the only decent linemen we have but I think the rest of our O-Line is so shitty that people get an inflated sense of his talent. He is not Willie Roaf.

You don't get playmaking safeties in the later rounds. You get them in the 1st 90% of the time.

On the other hand, the SUCCESSFUL teams get their offensive linemen anywhere BUT the 1st round.

You're looking at the roster and basically going position by position and saying "adequate" or "not adequate". That's not how a championship team is built. All positions don't have the same value, some have more impact than others.

Sorry, but if you think our safeties "aren't that bad" I gotta wonder what games you're watching.

Albert played left guard in college because eugene monroe didn't have the versatility to play guard. Albert has the potential to be one of the best left tackles in the game. But please keep grasping for straws.

What's worse - our safeties, our tight ends, our offensive line, our wide receivers or our linebackers?

I have no idea and I don't have the time to look it up. How many Super Bowl teams drafted safeties in the top 10?

Keep in mind that Ed Reed was #24, and Troy Polamalu was #16
