Ingram's on his last year with no guarantee he'll come back. Can't rule out HB (but I don't really see one at that spot).

S


Bell could be upgraded from and Coleman is getting older and he'll be expensive next year (yet easily cuttable). Definitely can't rule out S, especially since we need a 4th anyway.

K, P, and FB are the only positions off the board round 1 and 3 (and very likely 4).

A case can easily be made for EVERY other position outside those 3, whether that's age, contract, depth, upgrading, or a combination of those factors.

OL is never the sexy pick, but sometimes it is necessary, this time, not so much. I'm of the belief that we'll target OL depth in the 5th round and beyond.

If we passed on Vander Esch and Kirk or our choice of TE I'd be upset.

I've got a feeling this is the year we see some offensive toys.

My preference.
WR Moore in Rd 1,
TE Fumagalli Rd 4 maybe 3,
or
TE Goedert Rd 1,
WR Miller Rd 3.

I'd be very happy with Price or Hernandez. Vander Esch would be great as well.

They're not taking a RB at that spot, not with their first. Possibly later in the draft.

I said maybe safety. You can add depth later, but they'll take BPA if they really like them. I just don't see it happening at #27. CB is a bigger need with Crawley being RFA next yr and will probably deserve a nice paycheck.

Vander Esch has had some injury rumors floating around the last week or so.

I think he's going to be available.

Honestly I would rather us take OL early. Kelemente was the biggest offseason loss and for all the success we’ve had running the rock, I’d rather insure that’s still there and see if you get lucky on te or de later

I'm kinda hoping we go OL in first round. I'm just not sure who's who as far as OL prospects go.

I know it's not an exciting pick but our success relies on our ability to effectively run the football. Ram was a slam dunk for us last year IMO

I would love another good OL. However if you could trade back a few spots then grab one, it would be much more ideal obviously. Ragnow will likely be avail in the second.
