    I'd prefer Trae Williams from Michigan State, but he may not be available.

    If you mean Trae Waynes, I think it's a coin toss. He's versatile and was used in a variety of alignments at MSU. I like him, though I am a little nervous about how he looks afraid to hit at times. Oh, and he's too tall to be a Steelers CB.

    No, I meant Trae Williams, the team's third string long snapper. He's going to be a beast at the next level. ;)

    (I did mean Trae Waynes, lol)

    Oh! Well that's different. Williams is a sleeper who's going to shoot up draft boards come the combine. Dude is a freak. His standing high jump defies gravity. :-D

    I think he may be there, he has some 40 time concerns. If he runs 4.4 or anything close we will need to move up to get him.

    CB'S are going to dominate the 1st two rounds huge drop off in talent 8 or 10 guys with top grades then the rest below average to horrible.

    Well, if they're average to horrible then we'll strike gold! Seems to fit our m.o. In that dept

    No CB, other than the injured Ekpre-Olomu, excites me this year. The pick would strictly be based on need.

    My 2 top CBs are Ekpre-Olomu and Marcus Peters. Both have huge questions marks. Ekpre-Olomu due to his knee and Peters due to his character concerns. These are the only game changers that I see.

    Waynes will be solid but he isn't a big playmaker and will most likely be gone before our pick.

    I wouldn't be terribly thrilled with Johnson as our pick.

    Not interested in Ekpre-Olumu at all we have enough 5'9 CBs already on the team, and he's coming off a serious knee injury. Peters has good size and would consider him at #22, if he has matured.
