However, with the addition of Glenn, possibly Hart (if he pans out), Pollack's coaching, and draft pick's outside the first round, this mock draft on Yahoo! has the idea swimming around in my head again:
James is a hell of a center fielder and can also play in the box, and I'm thinking that our pass rush should be greatly improved this year, and Derwin is the playmaker that we need on the back end of the defense.
Do you think James falls? Is it a no-brainer to take him if he does or do we need to take Price? Are Daniels and Ragnow good enough to make it ok to risk Price not falling to us in two?
If he's there, he's more than likely the BPA and you take him without batting an eye. Top 10 type of talent.
Then you make a couple of bold moves and get back into the end of the first round and grab a C.
For the record - i'd be shocked if he's still around that late.
