I don't think so...I don't think Jenkins was that much better than Cason/Flowers. Plus, there is still strong depth at CB into the second round.Originally posted by Charles WoodsonMy signature has NUDITY in it...whatcha gonna do?Comment

If there's one position that you should never go for in the first round it's DE. Unless the guy is like Julius Peppers talent you wait.Originally posted by red"I've got one word for you- Dallas, Texas, Super Bowl"- Jermichael FinleyComment

Could be a wideout at this point for the Packers--Best Player Available.
I don't like any of the Corners or O Linemen that are left. Maybe all you guys saying trade down will be right too.
I REALLY hope it ain't a D Lineman.What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?Comment

I hope Thompson is not intimidated by facing the fans at the Draft Party. Trade down if you need to Ted.more freedom, less government. Go Sarah!Comment

Texans take Brown, Schefter nails it....
Strengths: Has a quick first step and flashes the ability to get into position quickly. Gets adequate hand placement, has active feet and flashes the ability to sustain. Moves well laterally, can reach defenders lined up over outside shoulder and can seal the edge. Gets into pass set quickly and uses long arms to ride edge rushers past the pocket. Footwork is inconsistent and is vulnerable to double moves but can redirect in pass protection and has the potential to develop into a very good pass blocker once gains more experience. Moved from tight end to tackle in 2005 and can still line up there in goal line situations. Tall, times jumps fairly well and blocked a field goal attempt last year.
Weaknesses: Doesn't always take sound angles to blocks and can struggle to get into position at the second level. Plays too high, hasn't shown great lower body strength and is going to have problems driving two-gap defenders off the ball. Bends at the waist rather than the knees, is undersized and is going to have problems anchoring against bull rushers. Dives at defenders' feet rather than attacking the thigh pad and isn't an effective cut blocker at this point. Lacks ideal awareness and doesn't always adjust well to line stunts and blitzes.
Overall: Brown arrived at Virginia Tech as a tight end in 2003 and redshirted his first year. In 2004, he played in all 13 games as a reserve tight end, finishing the season with three receptions for 64 yards and a touchdown. He was switched to right tackle in 2005 and started all 26 games over the next two seasons (20005-06). He switched to left tackle in the spring of 2007 and started all 12 games as a senior. Brown is a former tight end who is still somewhat raw and inconsistent but there's no questioning his upside, as he has prototypical size, initial quickness and athletic ability. With that mind he projects as a third round pick.Comment
