And yes, I do believe a 2nd round pick is a valueable pick, especially this yr. with with all the depth at S, CB, and LB in this yrs. draft.
You brought up good points...that may have been the case...but I'm not sure it's the most clever way to handle it this way because everyone knows that teams are willing to overpay in FA...why not give him 1st round tender and negotiate a long term deal from there?
There are some teams that should be interested in DQ for a low 2nd...again, if I was Indy I would be throwing big bucks DQ's way right now...they did just re-sign Brackett but their OLB aren't all that and DQ could take over their WOLB spot and eventually take over ILB once Brackett gets too old...all that for pick 63.....go take a look at the last 4 drafts what kind of talent you get in that region
2006
61 Tony Scheffler TE
62 Tim Jennings CB
63 Darryl Tapp DE
64 Tarvaris Jackson QB
65 Charles Spencer T
66 Eric Winston T
67 Abdul Hodge LB
68 Claude Wroten DT
69 Paul McQuistan G
70 Ashton Youboty CB
2007
61 Gerald Alexander FS
62 Dan Bazuin DE
63 Brandon Jackson RB
64 Sabby Piscitelli SAF
65 Quentin Moses DE
66 Usama Young CB
67 James Marten OT
68 Quincy Black LB
69 Buster Davis LB
70 Ryan Harris OT
2008
61 Martellus Bennett TE
62 Terrence Wheatley CB
63 Terrell Thomas CB
64 Kevin Smith RB
65 John Greco T
66 Kendall Langford DE
67 Charles Godfrey FS
68 Chevis Jackson CB
69 Jacob Hester FB
70 Earl Bennett WR
Feel better about the 2nd round tender "value" now?  Of course we can match...but letting the FA-market (which, again, tends to overpay) dictate the contract seem pretty stupid thing to do....so if someone like Indy or NO throws big money his way you look pretty stupid and either overpay yourself or get to pick the next backup or marginal starter from the list above....I'm not even sure there's one player from those picks I would trade DQ striaght up with right now.....

Thanks for the heads up.
We're trying to throw the ball downfield and he checked the ball down to Trent Richardson and the Indians on the choice.
