Roy Williams? No way. One of the league's most overrated safeties. Big hitter, poor in pass coverage. Ask Santana Moss about that.

If you had to take a lineman, LB, and DB, I'd take:
Freeney
Urlacher
Reed

LB is a tough one, though. You could go with Lewis, Al Wilson, Antonio Pierce, Brooking, or others and be just fine. Urlacher's having a great season, though. Watch out for Jonathan Vilma; he'll be a top 5 LB for years to come. Marcus Washington is a stud as well.

Reed makes more plays in the secondary than any other player in the NFL. And no one is as dominating on the line as Freeney. Just ask any offensive lineman, including hall of famer Jonathan Ogden, who Odgen himself admitted got dominated.

You guys are crazy to take any secondary guys. Great defenses are built around a great defensive line. At least take a corner if you want to waste a pick on a secondary guy. Dawkins is talented but I wouldn't take him if I had to choose 20 NFL defenders. His position is not very important to a defense; at least not as important as the line.

I'll take:

Richard Seymour
Julius Peppers
Marcus Stroud

And my defense would thump all the others mentioned (cept maybe the All-Time team...).
