I don't see why we don't go Thomas, trade back into the 1st and grab Kindley (I hope he is there in 2 but seriously doubt it), if we don't trade back into the 1st and stay put in the 2nd and Kindley is gone I would want us to take Ben Bredeson with our 2nd pick.

I know this thread is about LBer.  However I am also intrigued with Tyler Biadasz to go with this rebuild at OLine.  If they were to pan out that would be Williams, Kindley, Biadasz, Hopkins and Thomas.  RG would still be an issue unless Price can get it together (which I am doubting at this point). 

Then in the 4th round, get Joe Bachie from Michigan State, tackling machine, decent in coverage and just an all around good player.



As I said above, I don't like the guys you are going for.  Murray is a hard hitter, but he is also out of position at times.  Simmons seems more of a 3-4 LBer guy to me.  More effective as a pass rusher and stopping the run.  I don't mind Jacob Eason, but without a good OLine, just see him getting beat up and not being as effective.  


Love the fact you are mentioning Kindley/Bredeson for round 2.  I hope they go Thomas in round 1.  I am sure they will grab a QB though, which kills me that some fans have the presence of mind to forgo a QB and take the OLine guys. 

You win some games with a good QB, you win a lot of games with a good OLine.

What didn't you like about Wirfs? You gave no details other than "I don't like him."
When I see him, I see a potential RT or OG. He reminds me of Dalton Risner.
If Jonah Williams is to be the future LT, they can get someone like Wirfs to either replace Hart of fill in at OG.
