I don't necessarily disagree with that, but I hope there's at least two teams drafting in the top 10 that do. Beyond that, I don't give a flying flip one way or the other.

gabbert, newton, and locker are locks to go in the 1st IMO. i would take none of them unless they were there in the 2nd. terrible year to need to QB but that's what is raising the value on these guys.

One thing we can guarantee regarding Kiper & his picks...

He'll be shaking his head on ESPN again during the draft, talking about how much "value" x-player has and how he can't believe player has still not been selected.

I think he is still in throw it against the wall, see if it sticks mode.

Don't pay him much attention until less than month or so to go then he gets his inside tips following prospects pro-days/personal workouts.

Me niether, Watt would push MW and AS. This is something that's been lacking. (Competition)

With that said, I would take Quinn if he was still on the board.

I only hope that the Texans have a choice of choosing from Quin, Aldon Smith,
Kerrigan, and Justin Houston for a player to rush the QB.

I'm really expecting a trade down and selection of Purdue boy

It would be hard to argue with that if it's what we did.

Get a talented player at a position of need plus add extra picks? I'm all for it.

I think it might be the best move. I think Kerrigan is going to be a hell of a player

I posted a mock draft with a trade down (NE) targeting Ayers, but also mentioned Kerrigan, Houston.

Ayers is still someone to watch out for I think he transitions quicker & is more fluid. The problem is UCLA players have a soft label compared to percieved toughness of a Boilermaker.

I´m not sure I´d draft a DE 1st... I mean with Mario and Smith our starters should be set (or do we have that little confidence with Smith in a 3-4 after he had a pretty good year) - but at other positions (OLB, NT, FS, SS, CB heck even G or maybe even WR) we definetly need more help! Now I´m totally fine with drafting bpa but I don`t see that big a gap between Watt and let`s say Aldon Smith...

But really I guess I´d be most comfortable with a trade... either up to grab Peterson/von Miller/Fairley or down to grab one of the OLBs.
