We all know its a strong possability that we will be grabbing a NT in the top 2 rounds of the draft. Thought I would post this article listing yahoo's top list.

I notice the have Brace as the #5 spot. I always thought he was ~3rd in most people's estimates.

What do you guys think whom would make the best addition to our D; most likely at the NT position or perhaps at the DE.

Dulak,

I don't know if you are aware of this, but you are asking the absolutely best and most important question not only as regards the draft, but also probably the Green Bay Packers 2009 season.

The number one question for me is, "How high will Brace go?" How's his back? Can he take on two "O" lineman. Is Raji as overrated as I think he is?

Nose Tackle Primer 

Assuming Pack93z is correct in his assumption that my pick of Brace in the second round is too late, (and the fact that even that is a major reach should be a major clue to many) we have a MAJOR problem with the 3-4 defense.

This is what is (majorly) keeping me up at nights.

If GB passes on Raji in round one and Brace is there in round 2, they have to take him in my opinion. He's probably a starter at the nose as early as next year for GB.

That is a interesting article dfosterf; I didnt know brace has had some back issues ... I bet Ted is leary of guys with back issues. And if he isnt he should be.

Interesting that the article was based on the steelers draft choices.

So you are worried which NT we will get or even if we will get one? or perhaps something late in the draft like 3rd or 4th round?

For some reason Chris Baker intriques me. Very good measureables, recruited by a big time program, and hopefully has matured. Would like to see him as the second DT drafted in 3rd or 4th round.
Why is Jerry Kramer not in the Hall of Fame?
