I am not convinced that there is not a plan to take Big Ben with #3 if he is there... even though Green has indicated multiple times he is not taking a QB, he has also stated he would take the best player available, regardless of position. How can you pass on Ben if he is there?
We have more pressing needs possibly, but a long term franchise QB to build around, with the emergence of Boldin and Johnson, seems to fit more into the scenario that would build fan interest and support going into the new stadium (wrong side of town BTW) and filling more seats.
Some of the young guys have a chance to be pretty decent on the D-Line with a year under their belt and a new D-Line coach (i.e., KVB, Pace, King, Johnson, etc.). The young LB's got thrown in the last two years in a tough situation but showed some speed and ability. CB position is REALLY BAD and I, for one, will not have a lot of expectations for Starks or Hill to suddenly become competent.
Anyway... just my thoughts
