Adam Carriker DeMarcus Tyler Justin Blaylock Jarvis Moss Paul Posluzny Patrick Willis Quinn Pitcock are the best choices available. And one of those names really stands out.
He is a choice, just Rambo didn't post him as one. You might want him, and that is fine. He is not off the board or anything. I still think Moss should be the man.
Adam Carriker is clearly the pick here. He is a perfect fit for the 3-4 Defensive End position and there are clearly several OLB prospects available to be picked some 10-15 spots later in the second round including the two mentioned above in Jarvis Moss and Lamarr Woodley and also Anthony Spencer.

I actually think Moss would go before or next pick. He even could/should have been gone before our first round pick. Carriker I think is more likely to be there with our next pick than Moss is, because Carriker will only be picked by 3-4 teams and is Moss could be snatched up by either a 3-4 or 4-3 defense. I think if Jarvis Moss is there at that pick, we HAVE to take him. He would be a huge steal. EDIT: Plus I would rather get a NT in free agency and move Robertson to DE, and then draft a OLB (Like Moss) with our first pick. Moss is 6'6, 250 and runs a 4.60 40. HE IS PERFECT!
A case could definitely be made for Blalock as well. That would really fortify the Oline for the next decade plus. I also could see the FO going with Woodley. While I see incredible potential in Moss - I think the front office will be basing it more on what a guy has done rather than what he can do.
Carriker and Moss are equally well suited to play in the 3-4 and equally well suited to be in the 4-3. I think you are right and it would be amazing if Moss fell and we could get him but I think Carriker is currently higher ranked on most boards. Like I said, I would love to draft Moss but under this scenario we may end up with Carriker and Woodley or Spencer and solidify our defense. If we took Moss we would not find a decent 3-4 DE for sometime in the draft.
Well, what I was saying is that we don't need a 3-4 DE, because we already have that with Robertson. I would rather get a 3-4 NT and then draft a pass rushing OLB. That would be my ideal outcome. But you already picked Carriker so, I guess my dreams have been shattered.
I see what you mean, but I think the three of rotations wouldnt be such a bad thing.....I guess it all depends what the FO thinks of the guys avaliable.
Jarvis Moss would have been very difficult to pass up, but with Woodly and Spencer also on the board, I would have gambled that one falls to #37. In terms of true 3-4 DE, there's a pretty big drop after Carriker so I think you need to take him there. Adding depth at the d-line I think is also a bigger need than an OLB.
