I don't think that's a mistake. We need a CB that can come in and be an impact player right away and we simply aren't getting one with our younger guys. Someone like Justin Gilbert could fill a void that we've needed filled for a long time. He's got the size, speed, and hands for it and a CB like him would help against a team like the Bears who have big, physical WR's. I'd be fine with a CB.

after hearing that Houston might miss some time or even the season, I think we are more pressed to draft one early, yes.

HOWEVER

rookie cornerbacks usually struggle heavily, and for a team in "win now" mode, maybe that's not the route we take.

Dee Milliner for instance, was pretty awful last year

The more I think about it, Mayhew knows that he needs to win now or else get fired, so I think he might actually trade up to get that "elite" prospect whether that is Mack or Watkins and whether it is a good or bad move for 5 years down the road

I'd prefer Mack over abybody--but there's tons of exciting players in this draft--I'm amped to see who we snag.

I don't understand what was the point of re-signing pettigrew and they better hope Waddle is gonna be a savior for them at right tackle

heh, maybe pettigrew/ebron will be like having graham/gronk on your fantasy team?  haha... no

We need to get Reid of Pettigrew
