Of course he is. Not really his fault that the Big 12/OU has such awful discipline and scheme. He is a sideline to sideline guy, above average instincts & knows how to close.

I'll be surprised if Murray isn't selected before pick #20.

probably not because there are only 2-3 linebackers worth 1st rd picks this year

I guess it's OK if Peat stays.
Hope we sign Vonn Bell.
CB will take the most work btwn restructure and/or replacing
LB - Anzalone back but we need a solid OLB opposite. Feel like we go that route at pick 24.

I think we are fine at CB. I’m starting to see Lb as a major hole now that Klein is gone and Anzalones injury history.
I had hope that we would go big at WR 2 in FA but guess they are looking to the draft. I guess I would be ok with Peat but I’m not sure his heart is in it.

Like Queen a lot. Shifty, fluid hips and is a 3 down backer. Liked the fact that he talked, communicated with his guys pre snap. High IQ. IMO he can start from Day 1 at the NFL level.

In saying all of that ... I'd feel a lot better drafting him if Mike Nolan was here as his LB coach

We need to get resolution to the Vonn Bell situation. If he’s not coming back then I imagine Gardner-Johnson goes full-time SS. If that happens then we essentially only have two CB’s (Lattimore and Jenkins.) We have PRob too but what good is that? We’ll need to make a move on a guy like Chris Harris Jr.

If Vonn comes back, CJGJ stays at nickel and it’s all good.

I say see if Malcolm Jenkins is down for a reunion. He can play the hybrid Nickel/Safety role. Gardener-Johnson can roam free and make plays. I’d like to keep Vonn Bell, but if we can get better then we should do that.
