I think Barwin is atleast as risky as Cushing if not more so, but I think people accept that and kinda realize its something we have to accept because its so important to improve our pass-rush even if we have to use a second round pick on a situational player.
The problem with Cushing for me is that he may not be as much of an upgrade over Diles at SAM as Caldwell ultimately will be at center (or RG). That's not a favorable return-on-investment for first-round cap vs 3rd-round picks in terms of cap resources. And its really gonna be a bummer if Cushing can't stay on the field on third-downs as some say ?
So if given the choice I would have taken the Texans top-rated DB on thier Board for the #1 pick and got the SAM in a later round.
