Everson Griffen. - He appears to be a boom/bust player that did not dominate at the college level like his measurables suggest he should have. That label was also hung on Mario by those who wanted Reggie or Vince. The team has a USC type defense and was one of the reasons given for Brian Cushing's quick success. Perhaps Smith/Kubiak go back to that well hoping for more GOLD. We all know that in order to win the division, we must beat the Colts and that includes getting pressure on Manning.
The other 'huh' pick could be Taylor Mays since he is a Trojan and he is that "tough physical" type player that we have heard Kubiak asking for. They also seem to like the idea of interchangeable Safeties.
