13, 43, 74

13- Phillips We have been needing a safety and passing on them for years

43 - Gosder Cherilus a nasty OT


74 - still thinking

 

13. Calais Campbell

45. Reggie Smith - put him at FS

74. Oneil Cousins - options to play RT if Gross is only here for a year, Or can be a G

 

Signing both tackles in FA

13- Merling DE It would be hard to pick between him and Cambell.

43- Carl Nicks OT He is more of a Left tackle / Pulling guard type.

74- Matt Forte RB We need that 3rd and one guy.

 

If your still bored, Here is Scott Wrights top 100

14 - Mendenhall RB

43 - Fred Davis TE

74 - DaJuan Morgan S

Assuming the lines have been fixed in FA and Fox feels it's now or never.

 

13. Kenny Phillips FS - finally have an athletic, fast FS to team with hard hitting Harris.

43. Early Doucet WR - I can't believe he's falling into round 2. He'd be great opposite Smith and an immediate upgrade over Carter/Colbert.

74. Dre Moore DT - I like him alot and it gives us flexibility next year with Kemo and Jenkins.

If we DON'T go DE in round one, then I don't think the rest of the guys available are any better than McClover and Charles Johnson. I'd try to get Rucker back on a 2-year deal close the vet min with a modest signing bonus.

Now that Wharton has signed what appears to be a decent deal, and Gross either re-signed or Franchised, I guess we're out of the Faneca sweepstakes.

Alternative scenario of drafting a LT and moving Wharton inside is intriguing though....

 

I liked the second scenario better.

But I don't know if we were or weren't in the Faneca sweepstakes - nonetheless if their idea is that they need to upgrade the line (and they do), guard is the only place they have available.

 

Yeah, scenario "two" really does upgrade the line. Draft a young, quality LT like a Williams or Clady, and then move Wharton inside to Wahle's spot.

LT - Chris Williams
LG - Wharton
C - Kalil
RG - Hartwig
RT - Gross

Backups - Hangartner, Bridges

 

14. Campbell - I still go with Campbell he has more size than the other top DE prospects

43 Tavares Gooden - If our team only no we wuz gettin two linebackers from the seventh flo-oh

74 I still want Decoud but he goes at 72 on this list. I probably got with Scheuning

 

GBN:

13 Campbell

43 Slaton

74 Rucker

Scott Wright:

13 Cambell

43 Fred Davis

74 Benedict

These rankings are all over the map on some guys.

 

Pat Kirwin on Moving the Chains is really talking up Davis. It's like he has an investment in his contract. He's the guy Kirwan said we needed to keep safety help off of Smith.
