ChrisXVI · 04-18-2020, 08:42 AM

No. 24 (R1, 24) WR Justin Jefferson, LSU
No. 24 (R1, 24) C/G Cesar Ruiz, Michigan
No. 24 (R1, 24) CB Jeff Gladney, TCU
No. 24 (R1, 24) LB Zach Baun, Wisconsin

I’ll throw in DE AJ Epenesa as well.

Here's the thing with Baun, if we were building a 3-4, wouldn't think twice about taking him in the first round...

But I'm not taking him as a DE as he lacks the size to set the edge on the weakside in a 4-3 and would be a liability as Galette was...

And I'm not wasting that pass rush ability to play him as a SAM LBer who may see half the defensive snaps per game...

I want my first round picks on the field every possible play, snap I can get out of them...

Gladney was very erratic against pro talent, and I think his floor is like that of a Tracy Porter, that's why I'd take him in the second round...

Can see a trade and switch, where we replace Warford with Ruiz, though I like Tyler Badass from Wisconsin or Logan Stenberg from Kentucky more...
