I would love it if Sedrick Ellis fell to us at number 12 but unfortunately it's very doubt that it would happen.

What would happen? Obviously the world would be enveloped by nothingness.

Not a bad mock. But i'll throw a curve ball. If Gholston is available...do you take him? We don't need a DE, but he is a "Merriman/Ware" type of player that is a tough SOB and will smack the OL in the mouth and get to the QB. He also plays the run well.

I personally would love the pick, despite our needs. He will make our defense play with some attitude.

God no, not Sedrick Ellis.

Why not. I know he isn't a 1 tech DT but passing on a top 5 talented DT would be stupid. I wouldn't trade up for him but if he's there at 12 we better take him.
