Yeah, it's between him and Beanie on most mocks ATM.. I really think we should go for a OLB or a DB (as I've thought for the past 3 years) but the thought of getting a big bruising RB, who's been compared to Clinton Portis, is getting more and more appealing the closer to draft day we get.. It's fine if he'd be a better fit at Safety cause we def need help there too and we haven't drafted a safety since 2006 (Roman Harper) but we've gotten CBs like every year (Usama Young, Tracy Porter, etc).. Harper in a great tackler and a head hunter when brought down to the line, but is very weak in over the top coverage, which we desperately need.. Tracy Porter was well on his way to becoming a shut down corner, until he was injured and Usama Young is a natrually atheltic DB, but shines more as a nickle or dime..
I am torn..
