[QUOTE="DoURant, post: 716626, member: 12388"] Drafting a CB in Rd 1 doesn't always mean an upgrade at the position, either. I believe our last 4 CB's we drafted in the 1st Rd were, Buckley, Newsome, Carroll, and Randall. The jury is still out on Randall, (hope his regression from yr one was due to the injuries) but when it comes to the other 3, Newsome had the best Packer career, and he only played 4 yrs. I just feel, a pass rusher is just as big of a need as CB, and with the amount of depth at the CB position this yr vs OLB, I think it would be better to pick a OLB in the 1st Rd and we could still upgrade the CB position in the 2nd. The one thing about the draft is its a crap shoot in every rd. and for most draft picks, your projecting that pick to make significant contributions in yrs 2-4, once they know the system, and hope you hit lightning in a bottle and get them contributions in yr one. After their rookie contracts are up, half of the 1st rd picks this yr will be considered avg players or busts. [/QUOTE]
