re: We need so much who do we even tank for?

We have playmakers at WR and TE and I think Shough will be better than fine. We just spent a pretty dime on Etienne and the front office will want to see how it plays out. I would build a very highly competent offensive line. Johnson as a guard out of Minnesota is projected as a 1 st round early 2nd pick and Peter at Center from Iowa is a Thursday night guy who will be a big time lineman as a center. Both of these guys come from run heavy programs. A Ferentz taught and coached linemen is a good value.

Or.....you could roll the dice and draft a DB. But, the idea is to find guys who will make your offense make their defense want to quit. Pieper gives you that he's a devastating blocker.

But we do a shitty job of obtaining them. Why keep burning valuable picks on average players? We legit suck at it. It’s crazy to spend the type of pick we will likely have on an interior line. 2nd, 3rd sure.

WRONG

Tank for the number 1 pick. Trade away for 3 to 4 future 1st round picks and any other picks a team is willing to give you.
