Let's Go Defensively with our First Pick
-
This team needs a lot of help and we will be looking to take the best player available. Trading down IMHO is a terrible idea. The people considering that as an option are the same people saying that this team lacks playmakers. Well, guess what? You get a playmaker at #6 whichever side of the ball he is on...
The way the draft is lining up I think we will be able to get an excellent D-lineman with our 1st rounder. Something we desperately need.

Not sure who it was but someone on the first page mentioned that it is easier to get pressure on a QB when his receivers are locked down...I agree with this. If on the board then we should take Peterson or Prince with our first pick. Between Peterson/Prince and Haden we would have lock down CBs for years to come. Move Wright to the nickel or maybe even to a Safety spot.
Look at the NYJs, they have a lockdown duo which helps them get pressure on the QB. Additionally you can get a DL in the second round and they be just as, not equally, effective as a first rounder. Between Peterson from LSU and Prince from Nebraska we should be able to get one of the two. Peterson could also return kicks with Cribbs, what a dangerous Special Teams combo.
True we need WRs for McCoy but at the same time we need vetern WRs so I think we should get our #1 WR out of FA.

Any WR we get in FA won't be a true #1 WR. We cannot got into 2011 with the same group of WRs, however we address it. I think we should take the best player available at #6 whether its Green or someone else and worry about needs in the other picks. Because frankly the BPA is going to help no matter what position he plays.

Also remember that our current WRs productivity was due to Mangini's system and no solid starting QB. This year, if there is one, McCoy will be a year wiser with a new West Coast system in place. I would recommend seeing how our WRs perform in West Coast and then draft a WR next year if we still need one.
I believe Blackmon out of Ok St will be in the 2012 draft, not sure about any other WRs.

wrong. they had plenty of dink and dunk plays this season(ala WCO) and did notta. couldn't separate or weren't strong or brave enough to catch the quick slants. out of our starters, stuckey and momass are the only two worth keeping and even they aren't a #1 WR.

I want nothing to do with Prince he was torched quite a few times this season and didn't show the shutdown ability of a #1rd corner..

If you can acquire Vincent Jackson he is surely a #1 WR. If we can obtain Jackson we can wait till later rounds to draft a WR. Now wether or not Jackson would come to Cleve is another debate.
