There is NO WAY you can put Turk anywhere even close to the same league as JA right now so I guess you mortgage some of the best of the defense to buy some offense. Yes Turk was a second and JA was a 4th but the round a player is picked in only carries him so far. After a while he has to start earning the position. I know I sound like I hate this idea but the thing is I don't see enough up side. We know what we have with JA and we know he is dominate. It's not like we are talking about a mediocre player here, he is the sack leader in the league. That WILL hurt our defense.

Herm feels confident that Turk can play so why not give him a shot. He was a second round pick. Hell we let Kris Wilson and the rest of Dick-V's crew run around for a few years. If we are going to rebuild might as well see what we got. Well I am not 100% sold that you HAVE TO pick a DE. Herm feels confident that Turk can play so why not give him a shot.

I think of it a little more harsh than that even. I think that if you truly want to replace JA then you have to use the #5 pick. In that scenario you trade JA for an unproven player and now you only have a lower 1st rnd and another 2nd. This would take away the chance to pick any player you want with #5.
