    Not undervalued at all. We haven't been able to stop the run since 2008. @RavensShallBurn and I have wanted us to draft a DT in the first round for like four years straight.

    Just a counter to that. Richard Sherman, deion sanders, Darrelle revis...some of the best corners are divas. I like having a corner with attitude. Finne was the **** too

    I would absolutely love if Alexander fell to us in the 2nd. I don't see that happening, but if it does we'd be dumb to pass imo(considering we don't get one in the 1st)

    Also, why does everyone want a wr so bad? This years crop is garbage, and we haven't even given the guys we have a real chance to develop. Give DGB a year to prove himself, let kendall have a year with an actually decent offense, and let rishard earn that money. We got a couple other young guys that are still developing too, and will only get better as our offense fills out(demarco, mariota developing, oline getting better). Unless we can get a burner/return guy in the later rounds then I'm just not really into it.

    You might be right about Miller, but I think someone will take him late in the second, we'll see. I won't be heartbroken if they do.

    So let's assume we take Decker at #15, at that point our biggest needs become secondary and WR.

    #33 - Karl Joseph (S)
    #43 - Artie Burns (CB)/ Kamelei Correa (DT)
    *Vernon Butler will be gone by pick 43.
    #45 - Tyler Boyd (WR)

    I feel like everyone is holding out for DGB, like he's gonna be the next Dez Bryant. He hasn't shown me anything at all that puts faith in him leading our WR core. Hell, even Wright has regressed a bit and I thought he was going to be solid for years.

    Before you say it, yeah we had a rookie QB and awful O-line. That's doesn't excuse all the drops from WRs and tipped passes for INTs. So yeah, get some competition going in camp.

    Really? You didn't see anything from DGB last season that showed you he can be elite? Lol...I gotta respectfully disagree. First of all, he didn't even play a game the whole year before, so naturally he was going to be rusty. Secondly, how many times did we go to him in the red zone and succeed? A bunch. The dude made some calvin-esque catches. Did he have some screwups? Yeah, which rookie doesn't? Let alone one on a tanking team. I don't recall many dropped passes from kendall or DGB apart for ones that were caused by them and the QB not being on the same page or just mettenberg being in the game.


    I also just think there are too many other positions that need to be addressed first. That, on top of the fact that those positions are deeper and more talented this year than at receiver.

    Address the real problems first please. We all know that a WR is only as good as his qb. So let's get a defense that can get the offense back on the field and let's get some guys to protect our badass qb. I guarantee you your mind will be changed on DGB and kendall real quick. (And who knows maybe Justin hunter too lmao)

    It's not that I am dying for a wide reciever, but it is a position of need. It may not be as big of a need as right tackle or CB, but it is still a need. I feel there may be value at the reciever position at the top of the second round. This class is not garbage. Doctson or Treadwell could come in and either would improve our recieving corp.

    Austin Johnson from PSU? Haven't seen a whole lot of him, just remember him in the combine and that my roommate (PSU fan) was pissed when he left early.

    Must of missed that, haven't been patrolling the boards as much as I use to.

    But Andrew Billlings & Vernon Butler are my favorites, both projected late-1st. Vernon Butler dominated the Sr. Bowl, still has some stuff to clean-up (uses his upper body too much, too upright, needs to work on leverage).. but that's what we have LeBeau for. Andrew Billings amazed me at the combine, but never saw him play in an actual game.

    Who's your favorite NT?
