If you want a corner so badly, why not just draft Joe Haden? I'm certainly not suggesting we use our 4th pick on him, but by your rationale, that would be the best move. He came to Florida having never played corner before, and yet he started at CB from day one as a freshman and hasn't missed a game since and was 1st team all-American this year. Plus he's a local guy. He's a sick prospect.
You say trade the 4th pick for a great corner. Who? What young shutdown corner is out there that is trade bait?You could probably grab Asomugha for Rogers + 4th overall pick.

When I first read this I thought you said Rogers+a 4th and immediately decided Tripp had lost his ever-loving mind.

I'm not overly impressed with any of the QBs in this year's draft; however we do need to draft a QB in 2010 or 2011. 2011 could be even "slimmer pickings" than what we have this year, so we might not have much of a choice. There aren't many top tier OTs in this draft either, so taking a QB may wind up being the "smartest" move. I don't like Clausen at all. We'd be better off taking Tebow at #4. I'm indifferent to McCoy. I could live with Bradford. Not really familiar with Pike and Snead.
Drafting Okung with our 1st and then snagging Tebow with our 2nd would be nice. I don't think Tebow will be a great NFL QB, but Shanahan could use him more effectively than most other coaches. ideally, shanahan could work his magic Colt Brennan turn him into a player. I'm not a cult-of-colt member but he's "free."

You don't like Clausen? But you'd take Tebow at #4? Please explain both.
Tebow in round 4 maybe. lol

Clausen. IMO Bradford is slightly inferior to him because of the system he played in college. Clausen played in an NFL like style in college which would be a benefit for him to start Week 1. I'd expect suh not to slip. I think we need a QB first to turn a page with new coach new QB. But then again theres always Colt Brennan. . .

Tebow at 4...that is seriously laughable.

Draft Tebow with the 4th overall pick, and trade Campbell for Chris Simms. Our problems are solved!
