So who do you want us to draft that will realistically be there at #14?

Realistically meaning someone that isn't Jayden Daniels who is picked #2 or #3 in every mock draft.

Let's get a tally going

Trade the pick for a 1 next year and a 2 this year.

Then trade that 2 for a 1 next yr.

Tank this year and have 3 picks in the first round next year with a new coach.

2006 all over.

This should be a purge year.

Best offensive lineman available. That being said, if one of the three top receivers fall to 14, I wouldn't be disappointed if that was the pick. Good offensive lineman should be available in later rounds.

Most of the Mocks I've seen all pick the same guy for us, Olumuyiwa Fashanu, OT. I wouldn't be upset with that.

Give me JC Latham or Troy Fautanu. I think Latham has the ability to flip from RT to LT. He loves plenty well so that won’t be the reason. I like him just behind Alt and right up there with him. Fautanu would be a solid, safe choice that you know can play LT and at the very worst kick inside and be your starting LG and be a good player. He’s one of the safest picks in this draft for me at OL along with Graham Barton at Duke and The C from Oregon. All those guys at floor is very high. Guys like Mims and Guyton are all potential but could be better players than the guys above or they could bust.

I'd prefer to sign an OT in FA (bring back Peat or someone else) and draft an offensive weapon at 14. Bowers if he made it there (he won't), or Brian Thomas.

IMO this offense desperately needs size at pass catcher and my personal opinion is Olave is a very good 2, but not a true X WR1.

Swap first with JACKSONVILLE pickup picks 96 and 116 in exchange fir moving down two spots.

If we stay at 14 Verse or FShua from Penn State

I feel like this route of offensive weapon in the first and fixing OT via free agency and the second round pick is the best way to be as good as possible next year, but I feel like the team is going to go OT in round one.

Right there with you on Bowers or one of the top WRs.

We need to be stacking talent... whoever the best football player regardless of position... excluding QB... Im only excluding QB because he won't play immediately...

If a partner is there below us down to say 20th pick?
Trade. Get at least another 2nd pic and grab Latu. Relentless describes him.

If there was ever a year to trade back and get more picks, I think this is the year. Guys like Edgerin Cooper, Keon Coleman, Payton Wilson, Brandin Fiske, Kingsley
Suamataia, Braylon Trice, Jordan Morgan, Darius Robinson, Chop Robinson and/or Amarius Mims are going to fall to the 2nd. And there isn’t that much fall off from those guys and guys available at 14 IMHO.

There is no other answer besides offensive line. Not only is that the biggest need, but that is the number one essential position for winning

Damn Drive your right. Only two legit LTs and both likely gone. 14 to me is high for a RT in this years draft.

Bowers (likely gone) or best LT. WR in round 2.
