I don’t hate it, but we’d have to fill some needs in free agency for me to feel comfortable doing it.

I don’t think there’s a lot of draft picks that I would hate outside of:
A QB. A RB. A center because the value is shit. Hell...I could see them taking a safety just because Spags loves running three safeties out there. |

I'm not going to "hate" any move they make - they've earned my trust. Still doesn't mean taking an ILB at 31 is a good idea because it's not, especially when we have needs at much more valuable positions. |

And there's no way I'm trading up for ANYBODY in this draft, not with the depth that's there.
Trading up for a LB is lunacy. |

In fact, you'll find more studs in the 2nd round like David and Wagner than you will in the back half of the first. It's a bad idea. |

I would be thrilled if we got him without trading up, and contingent on how free agency and the board breaks. So yeah, I agree with this.
Quotes from his coach at Tulsa - a biased source, but interesting. “We just figured in the scheme that we run as our WILL linebacker his skill set allowed him to do so much. By being our WILL linebacker we felt like we could use him in our blitz packages, bring him off the edge, bring him up the middle, use him in drop situations. Like I said, a very intelligent player,” Montgomery said. “So, being able to do some disguise things with him and allow him to use his athleticism. We just felt like having him off the ball allowed him to run and move and really affect the game more,” Montgomery said. “At the next level I think he can play multiple spots. I think he can still play the WILL linebacker depending on their scheme,” Montgomery said. “I think he can play their MIKE and be a Tampa 2 type drop linebacker if you needed him to be, but also have the size and the speed and the strength to play in the middle and do the things that he needs to do.” |

Feels like the draft has 10-15 *elite* draft picks, and then the next 60-70 players are all all 2nd-ish round quality. Would have been a great year to have multiple 3rd rounders.

How big is the gap between Collins and a guy like Pete Werner? Werner has size, speed, experience at multiple LB positions and might be available at 64.

The backer from OSU you'd want is Browning. The kid is an athletic specimen that is just starting to put it together. |

I’d be all for Jabril Cox in the 2nd if they want another LB.
