The way I see it, if we're giving up our 3rd to move up a few
spots for a LT, we're taking the position that our OL is only
one player away... and that that player is a LT. Clearly that
is not the case with our OL. Not to mention that there is
hardly a consensus opinion that Costanza will step in from Day
One as a team's starting LT and in fact there are plenty of
opinions out there to the contrary.
Seems to me taking best available OT with our 1st round pick and
then using our 3rd round pick on an interior OL is the more
sensible solution.

I think he traded down from #4 with NYJ to get #14 and #22.
He took Haynes at 14 and Gross at 22.

And the guy that NYJ got @ #4 was a bust too right?

Angelo has had 1st-round picks in the top 5 (Cedric Ben$on),
mid-round (Haynes, Chris Williams, Grossman) and the bottom
(Greg Olsen, Marc Colombo). Out of all those, only Olsen has
come close to returning value and even he is taking his sweet
time.
No matter where you put Angelo in the 1st round he is pretty
much inept which I'm sure is a big reason the McCaskey's
green-lighted the Cutler trade.

Yeah...convince angelo to go OT-DT-OG in the first three.
If by some outside chance that happens...what to do with the
bottom 3?
WR? DB? ??? Toubs gotta get his two cents in there somwhere.
I wonder if Toub still has the same kind of muscle with
Marinelli,Tice, and Martz on board?

If Angelo goes OT,DT,OG in the first three, he could go OT,DT,OG
in the last 3 just to hedge his bets :-)

Angelo will take a LB in those bottom 3 rounds somewhere. Bet on
it. If for no other reason than STs. And probably a CB or S too,
for the same reason.

True...he grabs a LB nearly every draft it seems. This might be
a year to start looking for a guy for the middle. This is
Urlacher's 10th or 11th year coming up, right?
