No way Salaam is in our long term plans so finding his replacement while Gibbs is still around might be a wise move.

Do I really need to explain this????


edit: OK after re-reading it I can see where you missunderstood. Im talking about a backup OT. The thing about Unger is he can backup any position on the line. This makes him more valuable IMO. Also Gibbs isnt going to be around forever so finding a capable replacement for Salaam now should be a priority.

Sure we all agree that Salaam will not be around forever, just don't replace him in this draft with our first round pick. 5th, 6th, or 7th maybe.

Ok, sure, just not with the #1 pick of this next draft. There are way bigger fish to fry.

I suggested taking Unger to replace Salaam with pick 47. 47 would be our hypothetical 2nd pick.

After the end of the regular season, it looks like the #15 slotting for us. If Moore should drop to us at # 47 I would be astounded. He is probably 1st round material, but it would not be the first time a good FS lasted till the 2nd round. A steal in my estimation.

Looks like Unger is an OT/C with size, perhaps he'd drop to third? Moore looks like some have in in top 10, but I like us getting a safety, maybe even at 15. Or how about Taylor Mays at safety. Good size. maybe need to see combine speed on these guys.
