I never look at those, but took the time to discover what I was missing this morning. Whoever created it put some time in and it is well done.

Dennard would be a great starting point in re-tooling the defense

Gilbert would be even better ( far more exp in zone scheme ) and considering we run mostly zone he is by default the better fit , but he has the speed and size to man up with anybody

That would be LLT bud, who, IMO, is one of the best draft minds on this board.

I always read the mocks. It gives me a prospective on what other people are thinking. The trick is, to find a person who's opinion you trust most.

I think its going to be Bortles 1, Manziel 3 , Bridgewater 5. Browns want Carr at 26 , dont think Vikings reach for him at 8.

Is it easier to pick up quality defensive backfield talent in middle and later rounds as opposed to defensive linemen and linebackers?

If so, and given the Woodsloth situation and lack of general pressure which allows QB's the time to connect on these long pass plays, wouldn't it be more logical to pick up another top tier linebacker who can pass rush? - all other things being relatively equal (i.e. value)?

that can be the case at times , but I see pass rushers in the middle /later rounds I real like too in this draft , so for me if we stay put at 15 we better take the most elite talent possible Kennard is very interesting per example and may still be on the board in the 5th-6th round

In this case...I dont think all things are equal. We are going to be looking for a starting CB as opposed to a backup LB. Its only our fortune (and a down year) that gives us the #15 pick where one of two very good CB's should be available.
