An ideal #2 WR, in my opinion. A lot of mocks have us (as usual) drafting a CB in the 1st, which I don't see happening at all, given who we have at the position. I think we'll draft one in the mid rounds, but not the 1st or 2nd. In my opinion, OT, WR, RB, and DE are far more pressing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Egbuka and think he'd fit in well here, so wouldn't hate that pick at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won’t be surprised if they prioritize nickel CB as one of their bargain FA/trades in the offseason. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been great over last 3-4 games but so we really expect OT Smith to continue this year and be ready next year…. Next to me is LB…. We are surviving with out LVE but we can lot really count on Overshown coming back. I doubt we resign Gilmore but we might even with out him Bland and Diggs should be the edges and Lewis is okay but yes a 3rd to work in is okay. We also need to consider that Hooker Kearse and Wilson group won’t last much and Wilson’s roll has been replaced by Bell and is failing at his current roll Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rtnldave Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 If we draft a CB or WR early I'm going postal! I believe our biggest needs are: 1. OL 2. RB 3. LB 4. OL 5. RB 6. Edge 7. OL I mean, we have at WR: Lamb, Cooks, Gallup, Tolbert, Turpin, Bryant. DB??? We are crushing it without our best CB. WHY IN THE HELL PICK ANOTHER ONE? RB is one of the easiest positions to transition to from college. A bellcow RB can come in next year and totally add another dimension to this team. OL, there is a learning curve but if you get the right player, he can make a huge difference right away, ie: Tyler Smith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He finally looks healthy, but we should definitely have a guy waiting in the wings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many years, there isn’t even a center drafted in round 1. Everyone thinks this may be the best OT class in a long time. That’s where my money is at. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Center is incredibly valuable, but very few are selected in the 1st round. I think there have only been 10 selected in the last 20+ years.
