I picked Derrick Johnson b/c I think we'll land L.Jordan in free agency.If DJ is already gone,I'm in favor of trading down,if possible,and grabbing as many quality defensive guys as we can.
If Porter bails on us,I'd grab a good free agent WR and work with what we've got.We could use Teyo in the slot if we have to.
We need to address as many weak spots simultainiously,so I wouldn't be in favor of drafting another back with our 1st pick,if we do get a quality free agent back.
The Jets did this when they drafted Jordan and ignored their need for a CB,and it didn't pay off for them.I'd rather have a balanced team in terms of talent,rather than be stocked in one position,and weak in others.
