With the depth in this years draft at Lber, I'm not sure I'd want to break the bank on Briggs. Rivers could be had for much less and be just as good a player from Day 1....and we know he'll be there at 10.
He'll be there at 10 if you want to draft to way before his value. This draft is NOT deep at LB. Rivers is the best of a mediocre class. He's no where near as talented as the top LB from last year. If we move down, then sure. Then, after Rivers there's a drop off in talent. Yeah, a drop off in talent from the top player who himself is a drop off in talent from the top LBs last year! This is a weak class of LB bunched together and indiscriminate from each other.
Rivers close to Briggs on day 1. seriously?
