Hope we get Connor or Mayo with 2a, best CB left 2b(Godfrey, Porter, Thomas), Rachal at 3, and Jordy Nelson @ 4...

I'd take L.Sweed at 32 or J.Nelson in the 3rd otherwise the only other guy at WR I'd want is M.Monk in the 6th or if we aquire a 5th somehow.

Q.Groves or J.Mayo at 32 otherwise would be great for us, A.Cason is another great selection there. With all these possibilities I have to think atleast one will be available to us there. This wil be the draft we'll be talking about 5 years from now that really turned things around for us.
