cant say i really disagree with you. but to add to that i think ideally wade wants an elite player on every level of the defense. currently we have AD on line and JR in the secondary. i guess the question is whether or not they view DF as an elite player and willing to pay him the contract he will get. i go back and forth on this.
personally i think littleton is gone regardless of what they do with DF. littleton is a good player, maybe great, but i think they will take the comp picks and not invest a ton of money at that position. they do seem to like howard and kenny young seems to have a similar skill set as littleton which may explain why wade wanted him from baltimore.
