My point is not only do dlinemen have slightly more impact on the game than safeties, even in today's pass-happy league, but while I don't know how Poe will progress, right now the Dline is worse than the safety position on this team.

If we're whiffing on Dline picks in the first round, we may as well whiff on Dline picks in the middle rounds and spend the 1st and 2nd rounds on picks like... oh.... I don't know...... QB?
We've struck gold there before. Jared Allen was a 4th rounder. Jimmy Wilkerson wasn't terrible. Hell I STILL think Jerrell Powe isn't getting the respect he deserves from this coaching staff.
A blind squirrel finds the nut every once in awhile. We've been concentrating waaay too much on Dline past few years. Even if our task of rebuilding that position group isn't complete, we have GOT to move on to other stuff. We can't afford to piss away any more crap at defensive line picks.
