All line spots besides Evans could/should be upgraded

I would love to take Vic Beasley if he could stop the run, and we already have that in junior we need dual threat

Re: Are we really going to draft a DE in round 1?
For ILB nfl mock drafts, at least a few have Denzel Perryman, Eric Kendrick's, Stephone Antony & P. Dawson going in the first Stephone Anthony is starting to grow on me between him & Denzel would be my ILb

Our LB group is weak. Two LBs that can cover would be big improvement.

The cowboys took a chance with Rolondo McClain regardless of his background, I believe he was their leading tackler this season and also had a couple of Int's

Re: Are we really going to draft a DE in round 1?
there are no 34 LB in round 1 in the this draft that does not have more than one question mark about size. after you take away hype and ceilings i would not draft an OLB in round 1 that did not carry the issues of not being able to handle teams that run right at them. Jr fills that roll already
there is only two i would consider Shaq Thompson - but i see him as an upgrade to kenny Benardrick McKinney - true 34 run stuffing ILB rest of my short list La'el Collins OT - solves so many issues. position and if needed cap DeVante Parker WR - some of the vest hands in the draft Trae Waynes CB - top 3 CB of the draft Malcom Brown NT - top 3 at DT Melvin Gordon RB - everything Mark was not then some Marcus Peters CB - what if he nails the interview then what? ONLY ONE DE almost made my list and still has major hype and upside all over him just like all the others. but he wins out based on having truly the most "freakish athleticism" of the group and might just have the most upside. plus motor issues have never come up. Freak of the draft Arik Armstead DE Oregon But why draft him? when: DeForest Buckner Oregon can be had later and is more devloped |

Re: Are we really going to draft a DE in round 1?
We might need an edge rusher if we lose Junior for any length of time... And it's starting to look like that'll be the case with the civil suit filed against him today.
