Pick's Picks 2012

[HPF Bob]

With ZBS losing popularity, a solid C-G swing guy can be found in the 4th-5th round. I might look for an OT before that. Wasn't Briesel an undrafted free agent originally? Good ones can be found that are quick/light more than big/powerful.

While we need OLB depth, I'm not sure it becomes a first round priority. I could see us trading down or choosing a modified BPA since there are few positions we could not upgrade but none that are just a glaring need.

I can see, however, where the third draft day may be where we can draft a C-G swingman, a pure FB, a backup QB and possibly a P-K with all of them making the roster hypothetically and all of them being possibly good value since those are not positions of high demand.

Trading down does have appeal. Feels like we really could use one more top 100 pick to reload some thinning positions. This is what consistently good teams do.

I have changed my mind on Dontari Poe and have dropped him down a bit, thus moving up OLB/DE Nick Perry. Having signed OC Chris Meyers has helped a bit considering the OC candidates in this draft. Anyway, my latest tweeks...

For discussion I might consider OT or OC rather than the RB.

Good board, thanks.

I was looking hard at Mosley, Potter, and Brewster...I would not be too unhappy to see Mosley at RT replacing Winston.

You have Worthy ahead of Poe. I don't see that. Both are inconsistent on tape, but Poe is the better prospect.
