Still some very good names out there, hopefully we can trade JT for multiple picks although at this point if he is going to be traded it will probably be for a player as the only one we could get multiple picks from that I can see as a potential destination would be Chicago. Of course, their name, I don't believe has ever been mentioned but could be a good fit for them. Still shocked we couldn't get at least a 2nd for JT.

id look for Avril, Connor or Smith to be our pick.

we need an OLB, and a Safety. but Dan Connor is a first round talent, and sure we have plenty of ILBs, we just dont have a pure dominant starting ILB to take over for Zach.

i think Dan Connor is a steal in this round. such a steal, we should go to jail for taking him in the 3rd. if JT wants to be traded, at this point in time id trade him to any team that has two 3rd round picks and a 4th to give up.

although JT would be great to groom Merling, and practice with Jake Long

Before the Dallas trade I would be ok with Conner although I have not big a very big fan of his, now I think we have much bigger holes.
