    I would have no problem if we used a 7th to move up and get Taamu or just the best available at our pick.

    With a solid NT I would give us a hands down "A" grade through 4 rounds.

    Please, no punters yet....

    I like how u think.

    I think we got the best pure NT in the draft. I know the Por And Chapman fans will think otherwise, but I think he can start this year, then replace Hampton in 2013

    Of course it was actually YOUR good call.

    I would have been ecstatic with Chapman as well.

    It was a judgment call. Simple as that.

    Hopefully a 6th or 7th. That is probably why we waited til closer to our pick.

    Best draft in a long time. This is amazing. We addressed critical, immediate needs with players who were an absolute steal at their draft positions.

    I thought this guy would be gone by the Steelers 2nd round pick. How the hell did he make it to the 4th round. Excellent pick

    Mitchell said he doesn't know if Casey Hampton will be healthy enough to open season on 53-man roster. "No one knows but Casey."

    Ta'amu is a Washington native but..."I was rooting for the Steelers when the Seahawks went to the Super Bowl."

    Just ensuring that DeCastro gets to pay for the expensive meals. Smart dude.

    Sounding every bit like a Casey Hampton kind of guy, Ta'amu instead said he's looking forward to meeting Troy. "To play next to him ... "

    Very excited.

    I still won't sleep on McLendon winning the job if Casey is out, but I'm excited to see what the staff can mold Ta'amu into.

    McLendon could be the guy for a couple of years with Ta'amu as the long term answer. That will also give Ta'amu time to grow a proper hairstyle.

    I don't think I've been this excited about the results of a draft in many years. Now all we need is the obligatory 5th-round DB or DE who ends up on the practice squad and later signs with Carolina, and we can call it a day. The one remaining thing I'd like to see us do is take a shot at a decent kicker. But even if we traded the rest of our picks for booze, I'm happy with what we have already.

    I have to agree!! This draft has worked out like clock work.. They have adressed holes and filled them with great talent IMO. The Adams pick IMO is a steal.. The kid smoked weed, in college.. Wow over 50% of college athletes smoke weed.. As long as he realizes he is a NFL player and that doesn't fly anymore I am excited about what he can bring to the table.. Can't wait for this to all come together and see these guys out competing for a starting job.. As for Ben.. How could this not help him? DeCastro IMO could step in right now and start.. Adams should be able to as well.. Can't wait to see how it all pans out! Maybe Ben will have more then two seconds before he has to scramble and buy time to get to his third or fourth read now!!!!

    As for Ta'amu... He adds depth at NT and should either motivate McLendon, or who knows he may come right out the gate and earn the spot, stranger things have happen!
