I picked Suggs.

Well the reason I picked him is because we've got Jenkins and Kampman as our DE's. I'd like to draft Orapko instead.

We have HAWK BARNETT BISHOP POPINGA CHILLAR SUGGS will have the best LB core in the NFL. 3-4 defense LB's are as important as the D-line is in the 4-3.

---

I like Farrior. There's plenty of tweeners in the draft that we can add to help the pass rush. Plus, one of Kampman, Thompson, Hunter, or Poppinga should emerge as a solid 34 OLB. What we lack in ILBs who might be able to excel in this scheme, so I'd like to see Farrior brought on board, if a guy like Barnett can be moved.

---

Basically, the more ex-Steelers and ex-Ravens we sign, the happier I become.

---

I will vote for Peppers because Ray Lewis isnt on the list and we won't touch Farrior or Suggs they will both be signed to long term deals.

---

If this list is the choices I am going to go with Scott. Peppers, Hayneswoth are going to cost to much. Even though they are good. I think the pack needs to spend some money to get players in.

With increasing the number of LBers that is going to be needed.

I personally would like to go with Gross over all of these, and concentrate and draft the D heavily.

---

I''ll go with Julius Peppers because I think he's as close to a Reggie White like signing Ted Thompson could make.

Terrell Suggs or Albert Haynesworth would have me just as excited though.

---

I'm going with Suggs, the guy has never failed to impress me when I have seen him play.
Like someone else alluded to is the fact that the LBs take on a greater importance in a 3-4.

How about Rocky Bernard for NT? Then with the drafting of Everette Brown/Brian Orakpo, developing youngster Jeremy Thompson, plus Hawk, Barnett, Bishop, Poppinga, Chillar... we could have a nice LB squad.

---

I voted for suggs too and I would like GB to draft orapko also. Would make 2 beefy LBs.

Orapko could function is LB/DE if need be
