[QUOTE="brandon2348, post: 554254, member: 7094"] At first I thought they ignored it but maybe they did not. First, after Mosley was picked there was a huge drop off at the position and overall talent pool. Second, the inside linebacker position in recent years has become the defense's version of the fullback position on offense. It is just not considered a high value position. Now I obviously see the need to replace Brad Jones and maybe they are trying as there was no clear cut replacement for him after Mosley that was worthy of a draft pick. Maybe they feel Bradford can move inside? And maybe they feel they have something with Joe Thomas? Thomas is very intriguing as is measurable's are very close to C.J Mosley's. In fact he has a higher vertical jump and bench press. His ten yard split in the forty is almost identical to Mosley's. I know he didn't play at Alabama and he is a tad smaller but he had a very decorated college career, being an all-american and the most vital component in the nations best run defense at his teams level. The more I investigate Thomas he is known as a very instinctive player. The Packers brought him in for personal workout and he was there first UFA singed after draft. We may have something there and maybe TT knew all along that he was the guy he wanted so he used the picks else ware. [/QUOTE]
