Mercilus will be a pass rusher, and he's going to rotate with Barwin and Reed. Unless one of them go down, he isn't going to start.

What are we going to do for nose tackle? Seems like the Shaun Cody and Earl Mitchell rotation will return. I wanted a pure nose in this draft. Maybe tomorrow.

I wouldn't be surprised to see them get a NT in the later rounds. I am expecting to see some WR and some OL in the next few rounds...

If we get a NT, I think Mitchell will move to DE, and there wont be any need to draft a DE in this draft. I like Shaun Cody tho, but it'd be nice to get a new NT as well tho.

Josh Chapman from Alabama is supposed to go in the third round and we have an early third rounder. He's got the size Wade likes, 6'1", 315 LBs. A little too big, but I think Wade would love to get him.
Alameda Ta'amu from Washington is supposed to be better, 2nd rounder, but probably won't be there @ #58. 6'3" 350 LBs.

There are few others, but I think we go with WR and OL tomorrow.

luck should be a beast, obv.
blackmon, good wr, not elite, but pretty good at everything/most things.
wright, eh, good wr, not as good as blackmon tho. deep threat type of wr, not much of a blocker.
