    First of all, I was surprised when he said he [Peterson] had almost signed with the Steelers last year after talking to Mike Tomlin and Grady Brown.

      I see Branch as the "wildcard" pick that no one is talking about but could do lots of things in the secondary...especially with how often we play nickel. If we don't get Edmunds back, then I think he is definitely in play with one of our first two picks. However, looking at Weidl's history...I think OL or DL are high probabilities at #17

        I'm guessing maybe since that didn't happen last year, he didn't even have them as a consideration this year. Per his own words, the offer came from left field and he didn't even mention them as a possibility. Money talks, and he signed.
