I want Brandon Graham and Terrence Cody.
If people are of the opinion that Cody will be gone in the first round, then I trade our first 2 second rounders for a late first and get a 3rd rounder back.
So now I have one second rounder left. I target Eric Norwood to play a Ted Johnson role at ILB and Mardy Gilyard to be the new Deion Branch at WR. Norwood is all downhill and has a nose for the ball, but at the Senior Bowl he showed he was weak in coverage. He plays kind of stiff going back in coverage. That's OK. He can rush the QB from the inside and he showed at the combine that his top line speed is pretty good.
Gilyard is just a solid football player. I want both of these guys.
I trade Adalius Thomas for a 4th, then use that 4th and package it with my 3rd rounder to move up in the 3rd and grab Norwood/Gilyard.
With my fourth rounder, I take the best available tight end or guard. With my fifth rounder, I take the best available WR and then I keep alternating between TEs and guard.
So, I end up with:
Brandon Graham
Terrence Cody
Mardy Gilyard
Eric Norwood
Aaron Hernandez
Mitch Petrus
Emmanuel Sanders
