    I apologize if these questions were already discussed, there's so many threads being created this weekend it's difficult to search through them all.

    What do you think we're planning on doing about a FB? I figured we'd try and pick one up in the draft, possibly Bernstein. I know we have Askew but he's really not the typical blocking FB like they have in SD.

    Also, what about NT? Are we planning on picking up Grady Jackson? We still don't have anyone to protect our LB's when we run 3-4.

    Thanks.

    Not sure about NT. But they have a few project FBs on the roster, and that TE they drafted, Posciak(sp?), is a FB/TE combination.

    We picked up a FB in FA and we drafted a NT in the 3rd round last year.

    the TE we took might be a FB conversion as he has that versatility. NT will probably be Robertson, Pouha and Kimo can also play NT in a 3-4 as another option. we will probably still make a few signings after the draft though. the coaching staff may like what we have on the D-line already.

    OK but he's not really a typical bruising FB like I would expect. I guess that works but I was really expecting us to pick one up.

    I guess it will be a competition between Jones and Clement. I thought for sure the FO would draft 3-4 OLinemen. I was a little surprised about that. Thought for sure they would grab a RT and heir apparent for Kendall. I am gald about LT and OC though.

    Ugh, we do need to upgrade RT for sure. Overall I like the draft, especially rounds 1 & 2 but it seems like we missed some needs. FA are still available though I guess.

    I agree. Only complaint I have about this draft is that RT was not addressed in a deep OL draft.

    Guy named Micheal Warren. He's a supposed rookie. I don't know what the deal with him is.
