Turns out there are a couple more guards. I expect an ILB or a tackle/guard. We will see what happens. DGB intrigues me.

It seems like the best players left have pretty significant question marks about their character. Collins, Gregory and DGB all have a big time upside.
I get the feeling we're looking for Kendricks from UCLA though.

Agreed. I can't see us picking DGB after hearing Spielman and Zimmer gush about high character type guys.

Sounds like he's smart, instinctive and fast but on the small side.

lol What? I am excited about Kendricks. Don't know if he is playing Will or inside, but he should see significant playing time. Linebacker core could look something like Greenway, Cole, Barr, or Greenway, Kenricks, Barr, or even in two years Kenrick, Cole, Barr. I am forgetting Hodges-- and he played fairly well too.

Thanks for the tweet. I think he will be an awesome addition. Great pick! Now we just need a guard. I am a little saddened as I think Audie Cole will be good enough to start, but the depth cant hurt.

Dang, there goes A.J. Cann. I have no idea what were going to do in the third. BPA probably, maybe a wide receiver. Still need a guard!

Man! I Lockett is a great pick for the Seahawks. We wouldn't need him because we have Wright, but that guy is going to be a good player. I would not mind the wide receiver Strong at this point.

What is the scoop with Hunter? Anybody know? Great physical traits, not sure about anything else though.
