Now that we signed Rolle. What do we do in the draft if both WR's are gone? If we stay put do you think we take a shot at Shawn Merriman he's a local product and reminds people of Abrahmn. He came out earily but this kid is going to be stud! I would love it if we moved up, drafted Braylon and took a shot at free agent that doesnt want a huge deal. or even move down a few spots and take Cody or Williamson. Alot of people now have Williamson above of Williams. i guess it all depends on what happens with Coles and Gardner.

I have been really intrigued with Merriman, but I have heard he might even go number 3 to Cleveland, he is that good a fit for a 3-4 hybrid style defense. If he bulks up a bit, he would be a really impressive DE IMO though and I always love to get the Terps.

He is the only guy I would be interested in drafting at 9. I would be much more comfortable trading down to about 15 or 16 and getting that second if Williams and Edwards are off. Actually, I would be most comfortable trading up to get one of them, but who knows. At 15 or 16, we could target Williamson, a number of DEs, or even Channing Crowder, who we may now be interested in.

i think if we stay at 9 and both receivers are gone we should take merriman and if he's not there trade down for williamson. we definately won't go cornerback now and merriman is by far the best pass rusher in the draft.

i say we trade up and get 1 of the recivers we need some offense not defense and if we dont draft 1 of them in the future every1 will be saying we passed on an oppertunity on getting a great wide receiver which both edwards and williams will be
