Only have two knocks:
1. I like the Tampa pick, but I don't necessarily think their DLine is awful, especially with all the investments they put into it last season (first two picks). Before this season started, I would've said they needed a WR or RB, but since Blount and Williams showed up, they do need to improve their pass rush, so I like the pick
2. As much as Jimmy Smith is a safe pick, if we're drafting that late, it's about talent vs need, and can't see passing up a top notch receiver in Blackmon if he falls to us. Whomever we doom to play at QB is gonna need a speed receiver to stretch the field (Ginn could've been this IF he could hold onto the ball) and get guys like VD and Crabtree open.
Overall, I think it's realistic and pretty well done, so great job
You still go need at #21 -- shoot, you still go 'need' in the 2nd round if you have to. I don't think adding a one-year wonder WR at #21 is going to have the impact like you think it is...Blackmon isn't AJ Green or even Julio Jones.
We're weak at Corner and neglected it in 2010, which was a cornerback draft for the ages...
I think our passing game improves in 2011 WITHOUT any additions because our Offensive Line will be much better (Iupati and Davis will have a year of experience, Heitmann and Staley will be back).
