Just so you are clear, Rey Rey was on my preseason short list, he and William Moore. IMO he does not fit our teams needs.

I though so too, but recently I heard reports he's on the Texans "shortlist", whatever that means... I guess they feel they can move Ryans to SAM, and plug Rey Rey in the middle to better defend the run. Rey is the best run stopper in the USC bunch and has proven himself the last three years, where as Matthews still is somewhat new at the position(OLB) and probably the weakest against the run. I think we ranked 26th against the run, which is the area they most want to improve, along with the secondary and pass rush. All we've heard is Matthews, when it's really probably Rey they want and helping Matthews draft stock in the process. Now if Rey and M. Jenkins are gone, I see us trading down and probably taking whoever is left out of Matthews, J. Laurinitis, or D. Butler.

Then again, who really knows..........
