[QUOTE="DILLIGAFF, post: 259152, member: 1719"] IMO our line backer positions both outside and inside are a bigger priority over our secondary on defense. The reason our secondary had issues last year was the lack of pass rush and pass defense from our LB positions as a whole. Hawk has one year left in Green Bay before we release him because his contract goes through the roof in 2011, thus Hawk is highly expensive this year with no long term commitment. This guy looks more athletic than Hawk and can play in open space, something a 3-4 inside LB must do and Hawk can not. If he is still around in the 2nd round and for sure in the 3rd, would be an excellent pick for talent and need. IMO this year would be a good year to trade our #1 for more picks in the 2nd -4th rounds this year. For this 3-4 defense to be able to play against the elite teams with good QBs, our starting 4 LBs have to be solid. Hawk (inside LB) I know is not the answer and the other outside LB position has potential in Brad Jones but the Cardinal game raises concerns. Yes, Inside LB is a need for this team > than secondary help. Safety's and corners are deep in this draft, so drafting high for our secondary will be a mistake. [/QUOTE]
