That seems to be the pevelant thought with Davis, who I thought they would put at OLB with his athleticism, so in the respect, Mosley to play ILB would not make alot of sense, although I do think he could play OLB, but I have not put in enough time on him to say with any certainty.
I thought OLB and RT were the obvious picks this year... I would agree that they also make sense heading into next year.
With the success rate of 6th and 7th round picks, at least one I would think is not going to be part of the future, if not both, so IMO with Landry and Bell on one year contracts, a 1st round safety is still in play, but thats just my opinion.

We went best defensive player available this past year, I doubt tj will be the best available when the jets pick in 2013. Imo Bush will not work out but I like Antonio Allen a lot, and think he was a steal in the 7th round. Hoping I'm right

He might not be the best, but as I see it he is better than anyone on the roster at either safety spot in terms of overall ability, and I guess I like him that much. I think he's a better overall prospect than Barron. I like Allen, and would agree that he was a steal in the 7th, but he still needs work in coverage. Who knows, I am sure alot will change between now and then, but should Allen work out, wouldnt a FS still be needed?

I take it you've never heard of Cyrus Kouandjio. Sophomore LT, future top ten pick.

Yeah, I have heard of him, I also heard that he tore his ACL and MCL (http://alabama.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1321662) last year against Tennessee, and that he and his brother have a knee injury history now. Cyrus has proved next to nothing on the field, other than he cannot stay on the field at this point. He has top type ten talent IMO, but its a little premature IMO to imply that he is a future top ten pick. Could he be? Sure... With some shuffling of the line Flunker to LT, even if it is only until Cyrus is 100% makes sense to me, but that is just my opinion.

The likely favorite to land the no. 1 overall pick will be Jacksonville Jaguars. And they would likely draft QB Matt Barkley, not QB Tyler Wilson.

For the Colts, they will be picking in the top 7 for sure. And they need DEFENSE!

So the Jaguars are not likely to be picking second? Whats the difference if you want to nit pick... Were the Colts the likely favorite to land #1 this year at this time? Hindsight not included. What makes Barkley more likely than Wilson in your opinion?

This was an interaction with another Colts fan earlier, what is you opinion?

Give then CB David Amerson in the 1st, and either OLB Sean Porter or Alex Okafor in the 2nd to help out their defense.

The order as I said I had not put much thought into, last year I think I had Cincy picking first, Cleveland 4th... Who knows, what if Luck gets hurt? What if I posted the same #1 pick last year at this time, what would you have said? Probably something like this: "Horrible draft for the Colts. First, they WONT be drafting 1st overall, bank on it." followed by Peyton Manning, blah, blah, blah. I can understand the offense being better, but a Rookie QB, 34 year old #1 WR, 2 rookie TE's, a concusion issue in Collie and rookie in the slot, with a converting defense with few, if any pieces does not inspire me, nor would I bank on two more wins with a defense that likely wont be able to stop anyone. I do like what they are building for the long term though.

Seems like a rebuilding team that could likely be picking #1 to me...
Amerson makes sense to me, as would Porter or Okafor depending on how things shake down. Whats wrong with Hunt?

I should've made myself more clear; my point was that the only reason Jones is moving from LT to center in the first place is to get the best 5 on the field (Cyrus apparently being one of those 5 in the coaching staff's opinion). Cyrus played well last year before his injury and obviously has impressed the staff in camp/practice considering he was listed as a co-starter on the depth chart last year.

not a big fan of woods to my vikes. LB in rd 2? sure :)
woods reminds me too much of percy harvin. would his skillset transfer to being an outside the hash threat?

if the colts were to get the 1st pick again, wouldn't it make sense for them to dish it to a team needing the top QB?
thereby securing the extra picks needed to retool around luck...

thank you for not putting seantrel henderson in the first two rounds... based on what he's done (nothing so far), he shouldn't tender anything more than a late round pick. tons of other top prospect linemen have constructed a better resume to date.
