I liked Spoon last year, but he returned for a Senior year. I'm not going to jump off his bandwagon now. We have higher needs? Yes. Is there a better player? I haven't been convinced by any of the guys I've seen. If Haden is still on the board, I'll bite. Eric Berry? Sure. I'm not drafting a Guard in the 1st round unless he can play OT in a pinch. So, if Trent Williams is still around, I'd be willing to go that route. I'm not sure if I draft a RB in the 1st round until the team makes the playoffs. The kid from Fresno in the 2nd sounds good to me. So, overall, I forsee the best player available when we pick will be Spoon. I'd rather have 3 great LB's on the field and simply remove a NT on passing downs.
