Guessing Our 1st Pick

If we stay at 27, I'm going TE. We can land a turn key TE right there and get a serviceable DT or DE in the 3rd. Really no point either in trading up or down back into the second. The value is there in the remaining rounds.

This draft does in fact have a good TE class. I'll take Gesicki or Andrews. Get an edge rusher or DT in the 3rd. 4th a LB and 5th rolling the dice on Ballage. Rest is whatever. Likely won't make this team anyway.

Re: Guessing Our 1st Pick

I'd like to see D line, O line or LB at 27. I'm not gonna get too upset over any pick though really. We're in pretty good shape in most areas. I'd rather it not be a QB since he likely won't see the field this year, or next..or the year after that even maybe, but whatever.

No idea. Probably someone nobody saw coming a week ago like Calvin Ridley.

I know if he falls who it should be. Vea.

Re: Guessing Our 1st Pick

I have 3 I’d like at 27

Gesicki - 4.5 speed, 6’5” frame, 42” vert with soft hands. Sounds like 10 TDs to me.

R Evans - plays all 3 positions. Covers, has speed, rushes the QB well.

Harold Landry - speed and bend that could generate QB pressure on day 1. He’ll fall due to questions about injuries. I’d happily welcome him.

Will Hernandez .

Not my personal choice but I see a pick @ 27 that will take us all by surprise.

DT Phillips Stanford. Everyone on the DL outside of Jordan and an under producing Rankins are role players. Phillips is a high character and motor guy. And he produced on the field.
