My favorite teams
With the Packers always seeming to have more weapons than we have capable defenders, and the Lions rumored to be targeting more WR help in the draft, it might be worth doubling up on CB in this draft. My reasoning being: (1) Conte looked like he was becoming a quality player when our pass rush could make a difference in the game, (2) We should be targeting either Donald or Hageman in the first round, who would on day one improve our pass rush in a position where we are weak, and (3) I doubt anyone will be available after the first round who will start out better than Conte is now.
At least one CB is a need now, and another CB will be needed next year. With taller receivers becoming vogue, we need to have more than one big CB on our roster, and drafting two guys now would mean we have two rookies learning Tillman's craft while he is still a Bear. The draft is pretty deep this year at CB, and a number of them taller than 6'. I think we would be well positioned to draft McGill in the second and Jean-Baptiste in the third, though I wouldnt be surprised if Pierre Desir or Walt Aikens were also considered as third-day prospects.
