Way Too Early Pan Me Mock December 16

Best secondary player available was Nick Emmanwori, who's more of a rover and not a true FS type.  There were no CB's available I felt worth the pick.  Besides which, they would still have Hill and Turner for outside CB's if CTB leaves after next year and you aren't spending a 2nd rounder on a slot nickel CB.

Beyond that, the issues with this defense all start up front.  I took what I felt was the best pass rusher available.  Unless we're talking elite, shut down CB or elite ball hawking Ed Reed S, I'm taking pass rush over secondary 10/10 for this defense.  With a good pass rush, even Eli Apple's sad ass looked like a decent starter.  It's a lot easier to cover up for problems in the secondary with a good pass rush than for a good secondary to cover up a bad DL.

What about Deone Walker in Rd 2 and an edge rusher in Rd 1?
Or are you that into Grant you want him in Rd 1?
Did Xavier Watts not make it to Bengals pick in Rd 2? I really like him at FS.
