I tend to agree. If Suh is signed, The only reasonable path forward I can see is to deal a bunch of picks to get a QB . The only way I see this happening is to backload several of their big contracts in anticipation that they can manage the dead money with a QB playing with a rookie contract. It worked out pretty well for Seattle with Russell Wilson. You just have to hit it big with the QB selection. As most suspect, it seems like it is Mayfield that they covet. Extending Mark Ingram and backloading the contract would be a good start.

I think they are going to take a shot at trying to get Mayfield. If that doesn't work I'd like Vander Esch, a TE, or WR at 27. Another pass rusher would be a good idea. No telling how Okafor is going to be after his injury and who knows if Al Quadin Muhammad is going to progress enough to be an impact player. As far as later in the draft I'd like to see them pick up another offensive lineman. Need depth there.

I think you can take a WR or DE/LB at 27. In the 3rd take OL if there is a strong prospect there.

Fumagali in the 4th for an all around TE.

Darrel Williams in the 5th as a multifaceted powerful back to compliment both Ingram and Kamara.

DT, WR, LB with what’s left.

Williams wouldn't be a bad pickup. People are saying we don't need a 3rd RB but what happens if Ingram or Kamara get hurt for a couple of games or they just want to lower their workload? Is Trey Edmunds that guy? I don't know

Only position worth first round this year is tight end or qb. Both first round rated DE will be gone. Bad year for WR earliest estimated pic at 16. We need a tight end and there are 3 possible first round guys
