    And Otis Wiley!!

    The only way Rolle doesn't enter this draft is if he wins a Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford.

    Now, Taylor Mays, I do think he is likely to go back to school. It's very very very rare that a USC Trojan leaves school early, especially on defense.

    And I have William Moore and Myron Rolle ranked neck and neck as the top Safety in this draft. I expect Kiper and other draftniks to catch on at some point.
    Rolle talked about coming back regardless, which is typical of underclassman during the season, but especially if he gets the Rhodes Scholarship, you're exactly right.......

    This is what we should do. Go after a hard hitting LB like Rey Maualuga or the guy i think is the best LB in this draft James Laurinaitis. We are most likely gonna trade with someone to get a better draft pick to get one of these guys. Depending on if we play a 3-4 or 4-3 next year that could be a great LB core. Dj Williams, Webster(if we sign him back and doesnt get beat by winborn or woodyard for starting job), Rey/James, and Boss Bailey. That would just be an incredible have. And in the early second we go after Rolle!! This guy is the anwser to our safety problems. I've watched this guy play FSU and this guy is just lights out. He got the speed,hits people like they stole something from him, the body, and the most important part is he is smart. Thats how you form a good team with not just talented players but smart football players off and on the fields. With Rolle and Marlon Mcree( which i think is better then what he is showing us right now) will be a good safety combo.

    I think Emmanuel Cook is the best safety nobody is really talking about. I see him as a second rounder and I think he could develop into a stud at the next level.

He is also not afraid to lay the lumber, reminds me a little of Bob Sanders, a little undersized but a football player!
    I support this approach! :salute!:

    Once again, for the 1000th time,

    THE SAFETIES IN THIS DRAFT CLASS ARE COMPLETELY OVER-RATED!!!!!

    You would only take William Moore and Taylor Mays in the first round, and Mays could very easily stay at USC for his SR year. Still, you would be drafting Mays on his measureables, which are off the charts. Moore is like Kenny Phillips was in that he is getting discounted, but is going to be a very good Pro.

    Myron Rolle has not played like a first round prospect. He may have the numbers athletically, but he has not been impressive this season, certainly not as a first rounder.

    After that, there is a big dropoff.

    The Broncos already invested in an big athlete with great testing numbers in
    Josh Barrett, don't you have to see what he becomes?

    I would sign Miami S Yeremiah Bell in free agency, and look to add another through the draft at some point.

    Players like Alabama's Rashard Johnson, Wake Forest's Chip Vaughn and USC's Kevin Ellison have better value in the 2nd to 4th round areas.

    But the bottom line is, you are going to have to sift through alot of rubble to find the gems in this Safety class, as was the case last year.

    Rolle is a good Safety I have him rated on the top of my list in the Safety class. Followed by Mays. Ive seen Most of Mays games cus i live on the west coast. He still needs at least one more year of maturation. He's been a ball hound but he does blow coverage in passing to try to make a big play and thus get burned on by oppsing WR. I still think he benifits from the SC front seven thus making him higher in the rankings when it comes to the safety class.

    In terms of a drafted safety, why not Myron Rolle. He's a Rhodes scholar, good football IQ, Fast, Likes to lay the big hit. And is either a late first rounder or second round pick.

    Mays sure doesn't play to this 4.3 speed he's supposed to have either, I think he's overrated.

    To be honest, other than Moore in his JR season, none of this drafts safeties are all that good. I'm not sure Moore should go in the 1st round either.

    And a big fat F' no to the Kennoy Kennedy and his 4.8 speed, he sucked when he was here the first time.......
