    LB Lorenzo Mauldin from Louisville. He had 20.5 sacks in three years at Louisville. Career-high 9.5 two years ago. 6.5 last season.

    They should have stayed and picked Eli Harold

    Cant say I know much about him but he has solid size and a pass rusher is what we needed.

    Gotta admit. I know nothing about this guy. Was hoping to go QB or OL. Hopefully this dude is much better than whatever was on the board.

    Great pick. He's going to be a stud linebacker.

    I like it, don't love it. Would rather have not traded at all and got Johnson, Strong, or Harold. Still not a terrible pick tho, willing to see how it turns out.

    Eli Harold would have been much better but this is a good pick.

    Don't know much about him other than he's got great size for a pass rusher. I'm sure Macc thought the drop off from Harold to Mauldin was narrow enough that it's worth picking up the 5th.

    Maybe he would have but we got 2 extra picks out of it which ft right with what MM wants to do. More picks to get good players. I like the 5th, you usually won't find studs there but you can fin good players who will contribute to your foundation.

    Any guy who's been in 16 foster homes is a guy that has something to play for. I like this pick.

    Not as athletic as others but never quits, works hard and wants to be great. I love the pick (my TGG mock round 3 pick). =D>

    Would rather have Duke. Macc traded just to trade. I'd rather have 3 high picks than 2 high picks and 3 low ones.

    Wow. You hear this guy's story? Jesus. I'm rooting like hell for him.

    Father in jail. Mother cocaine addict. Found himself in and out of 16 homes. Wow

    Fills a need and he seems like a good replacement for Pace.

    Just really, REALLY need to beef up the o-line. Both guards need drastic upgrades, and Ferguson has lost a step.

    I like the 5th a lot, don't really care for the 7th's or Posey. If it wasn't for Harold falling so much I'd be in love with this pick.

    Not bad, I trust Mac and Bowles. Especially with defensive picks.
