they'll at least be on the practice squad, but both have shown talent in games. 

i've liked everything ballard has said in the the last few days, (so far) other than cb's having to be tall give me a 5'10" 4.3-, or 4.4 cb with good hands and a good vertical any day a thousand have had great careers compared to maybe a 100 over 6'2", but hey the sport does go through trends like any other.

we need at least 2 new faces in our backfield with adam's retirement and well we need some speed.

i'm not so sure we need to use #15 for a lb, or even a dl, or

another #1 for ol, 

  i think ballard has found plenty of talent already before the draft. and there will be talent in latter rounds.

one thing having manning for so long should have taught us is without a rb we haven't won an afc championship let alone a super bowl, let's not waste years of luck's career..

today they are talking about trading #15 up!!!

if they are that sure of what we have take an edge rusher at #15 if there is still one left, or olb worth a #1 then go after a rb and cb either one at #15 through #3 and use the 3 #4's and #5  to pick up the best talent left. but get a rb in the first 2 rd;
