More draft thoughts.....

With the 9th pick in the draft it seems like we are headed towards defense. I believe if Antrel Rolle is still available here we should definatly take him. However, if he is gone and even if Pac Man is still available I think we should trade to the mid-first round, pick up a second rounder and draft Carlos Rodgers with our first round pick. Rolle will most likely be the best corner out of the three, but I am not sold on Pac Man. Jones is fast, and a good tackler but he takes alot of risks. Rodgers was kind of getting slept on until the combine. He has good size (6-0 3/8, 196), he is fast ( nfl.com reports times at 4.44 but he had also been clocked in the 4.31-4.35 range), and he was named the top CB in the country this year over Rolle, Jones, or anyone else for that matter. Also, Rodgers proved to be a shut down CB for Auburn who faces some of the best passing attacks in college football, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, even LSU and Arkansas. Rolle also played great against big time teams, but who did Jones play this season??? The Big East is WEAK, UWV didn't play many strong passing teams except UCONN, Pitt, FSU, and you can even throw in BC and VAtech. The only teams UWV beat out of them was UCONN. Rodgers is proven and a leader. If anyone thought Auburn would go undefeated and have a defense that good after losing Karlos Dansby, Doneterrius Thomas, and Reggie Torbor they are lying. Rodgers stepped up and was the leader of that team on the defensive size of the ball. Also, by trading down to the mid-first we can pick up a second or third rounder. By the looks of things it seems Courtney Brown is going to sign with the Broncos. Although this really pisses me off, I think we could draft Jovan Haye from Vandy, a very solid DE in the second or third round to fill that need.
