We have a pro bowl OG, are you really complaining?

That's a pick I'm going to break my TV if we make it. It'll rate as dumb as taking Davin at 23rd.

Plus, what people always miss is opportunity cost. Can you get the same or similar production much later and in Davin's case yes. No one can even tell me, other than a position swtich, what Berry does for us? We hope he does what DJax does. DJax is back there and unless your theory is we'll pay him big $$$$ and layout the long green for the #2 overall so we can what, dump a ton of salary into the S position? We'll corner the market on great S play and get ripped to shreds everywhere else.Berry is a nice player he just plays what is functionally a low value position so he's a replacable element that guys at other spots aren't.
I like Berry...I love Suh.

Depending on what they do with the contracts of  Penn and Trueblood, we may need Russell Okung...
1) St. Louis RamsRecord: 1-12 Ndamukong Suh, DT, NebraskaReach for a quarterback or take the top defensive lineman in the class? Tough call, but we think the Rams should take Suh. Anyone who saw the Big 12 championship game knows what kind of effect the explosive Suh can have on a game. He is a disruptive run defender with the arm strength to toss aside blockers and the quickness to make plays behind the line of scrimmage. Although he isn't the most polished pass-rusher, he clearly has great potential in this area. 2) Tampa Bay BuccaneersRecord: 1-12 Eric Berry*, S, TennesseeThe Bucs might be hesitant to take a safety with the second overall selection, but we believe he's the premier prospect in the 2010 class. Much like the Baltimore Ravens' All-ProEd Reed, Berry is a game-changer with exceptional versatility. 3) Cleveland BrownsRecord: 2-11 Derrick Morgan*, DE, Georgia TechMorgan can anchor at the point of attack, make plays in pursuit, get to the quarterback coming off the edge and drop into coverage. That type of versatility would be a nice addition to a Browns defensive front seven that lacks difference-makers. 4) Detroit LionsRecord: 2-11 Gerald McCoy*, DT, OklahomaThe Lions are in dire need of a difference-maker along the defensive front, and McCoy is the prototypical 3-technique with the quick first step and power to make a living in opposing backfields.http://insider.espn.go.com/nfl/draft10/insider/news/story?id=4730972 I don't know what the rule is on insider articles, so im only posting the first few picks, but according to this mock draft and every other out there, we are picking 2nd. I know our rush Def is horrible, but can we really complain about picking Eric Berry?
We better take Berry if Suh is gone.
