[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 609279, member: 10086"] Precisely! Your theory about immediate needs is very interesting. It would make sense that the bulk of players past round 3 won't be starters their 1st season anyway (they are current projects and future prospects) So beyond our 2 CB's picks the chances of those players significantly producing as a rookie diminish heavily on Defense as the rounds move downward. Last year we filled our LB need by signing and converting Peppers to OLB. By seasons end, We improved our run D markedly by moving CM3 inside and adding Barrington and using Neal and Perry outside in a rotation. I believe LB Sam Barrington will improve slightly more again this year also. We actually have good depth at OLB and I believe 1-2 of those players, similar to Clay, could be a conversion plan. That being said. It wouldn't hurt to find another proven ILB in the next few weeks that is efficient as a run stopper. When shopping you can't be afraid to walk away, many times the resulting terms are more favorable. This is theory but there is still a pool of talent still unsigned that could compete to contribute to our D with just as reasonable results as a bottom round draft pick, as we've seen in past years. sometimes the results are even better. These players become a real value during the coming weeks as they will naturally become anxious to sign through the by and by. It doesn't hurt to take a stab at another one here.
