C. Lofton Vs. Maualuga, Toal, and Laurinaitis

Call me crazy, but I think that Lofton is a more sound linebacker than the others. I am not saying that he's better or will have gone as high as those guys will go. But Lofton is rarely out-of-position and does not tend to overrun plays like the others. If Lofton was a tad bit taller, he would garner more talk as a top LB. If we could get Sedrick Ellis and a guy like Curtis Lofton in the second (provided a top CB does not fall or some other highly touted player), Lofton would make sense. In fact, he might make sense even if someone was to unexpectedly fall. I am a fan of signing Lance Briggs and moving him to MLB. But if Lofton was there and was the best player on the board, I would still take him even if I had signed Briggs and move Briggs back to WLB.
