I'd much rather take Gerhardt or Tate with the second-rounder and use the top pick on another positon than use the first-round pick on Matthews.
Everybody seems to be excited abot him but he sounds too much like Arian Foster to me (who of course we already have) while not being very effective inside the tackles.
