    Jarvis Jones. No wait...Keenan Allen. No wait...Vaccaro. Or maybe Eifert. Dang, I can't decide.

    I have to waffle a little longer, I keep saying to myself that I'm glad I am not Colbert, I can't make up my mind on this draft. If one of the top receivers are there, I might have to go with that, given how our fantasy mock is going and we are into the 5th round and no receiver taken yet.

    Patterson is growing on me. He has the potential to be a game changer in so many many different ways. I don't think they are going olb is the first I think they will be taking Simon their first third round pick and hope that worilds, carter, or Robinson show ul. I'm going Patterson or Austin a true game changer. Not in the first but I would love for them to grab denard Robinson bring the ARE threat.

    Vaccaro, and has to turn out as a game changer, This is a big one this year. God I am scared of TX players.
    I may change this depending on Manny Sanders ,oh hell no I won't

    Right now I am going Vaccaro in the 1st, and Simon in the 2nd.

    There are plenty of good WRs who will be available in the 3rd and 4th rounds. I know some suggest taking Simon in the 3rd. I am not sure he makes it that far, and I would not gamble on it. If Simon does go before our 2nd rounder, I strongly consider Chase Thomas instead. We NEED to draft an OLB, and he NEEDs to be a savvy enough player to learn the scheme and contribute as a rookie. Jarvis Jones seems to be a very savvy, instinctive player who could learn the system quick, but when all is said and done I expect him to be gone in the Top 15. I think I'd prefer Vaccaro + Simon over Jones + 2nd round safety anyway. I think Vaccaro is ready mentally to contribute as a rookie, and I don't know that Elam or Reid are. Also, Vaccaro is very versatile - he can play the strong or weak safety positions. I think Reid and Elam are pretty locked into free/strong respectively.

    I am currently rooting for Eifert. I wasn't sold on drafting a TE, but I think he is going to be a game changing TE. The couple of years we have him and Spaeth and Miller, we are going to be very good at that position. Add a S, ILB, some WRs, and a RB and I am happy.

    I like Jones, but I'm kind of torn on Patterson. Just thinking what Ben can do with that kind of weapon. So I'm going there. Jones and Vaccaro make sense, and if they're chosen I'll be good with it, but defensive players get very little chance to succeed first year with the Steelers. I'm better with taking potential at d-end and safety, knowing that they'll have a year or two to develop.
    That being said, my dream is to have Star Latoullie fall far enough for a trade up.

    WANT: OLB Jarvis Jones (Georgia) - I am still doubtful he makes it to #17 though.

    THINK: S Kenny Vacarro (Texas) - I think Lebeau will win out this year and adding the "top" Safety to his secondary will be a high priority.

    If you want Austin, take him at #17... if he's even there. I think it's 50/50 that he goes before #17.

    I would be happy with the best pass rusher available assuming he's not a reach.

    True, it seems he is climbing...he is only 5' 8" though, not a good size in terms of durability is some teams eyes, and is a slot receiver return guy just like Desean Jackson, not a #1 or #2. It could knock him down a few pegs...

    With Sanders back now, I'm really hoping for a big bodied receiver.

    I haven't heard this guys name anywhere, and he is not a 1st round pick, but I really like some of the video out there on Aaron Dobson...

    He is about 6' 3". I haven't heard hiss name pop up much anywhere, but if anyone knows anything about him, I'm interested on what people think...to me he seems to run pretty good routes, but he has great hands and body control....
