[QUOTE="GreenBaySlacker, post: 773094, member: 9780"] No..... :) I just want my CBs to be somewhat comparable in stature to those super sized freak athletes they need to cover... why would we enter a plan knowing we enter with a legitimate disadvantage? At least try to find the good CBs out of the larger faster guys out there... This is how I would approach drafting CBs. 6'+ in one pile. 5'11" in a small pile on the side, as due diligence requires. Rest in the garbage. Then look for talent in those two piles... If Thompson had been doing that the last 10 years, I would bet we would have found that they too would have developed into good CBs in time. And brought the size, speed, strength with them... I have always believed in a bigger picture def scheme that starts with a world class NT. Giving the defense a +1 man advantage. And where defenses usually lose that +1,is covering the #1 wr, who can't be covered 1 on 1... the only way to keep the +1, and allow the defense to stay aggressive in the blitz, is to have a shut down cb who can cover their #1, 1 on 1..... And now days you need two CBs of that caliber... So I would be drafting Kevin kings, and Josh jonses, from round 1 through udfa, when they shown themselves available. Until my cb group is able to do their job for the scheme... it's that important to me. [/QUOTE]
