Draft

Given that I know virtually nothing about the current crop of draft prospects...here's what I'd like to see happen, all else being equal.

 

RD1-2 - D line and O line - either or, BPA

RD 3 - WR - someone with serious potential. Big target. If the WR is in the 1st or 2nd, then OL/DL here

RD 4- DB - We need depth

RD 5 - LB - more depth

 

RDs6 -7 - I really don't care...just BPA or whatever whim Emery has.

 

I just think we need to bolster both lines...and grab a WR prospect. Everything else is depth, ST, or dumb luck we can find a diamond in the rough. I can't see Emery reaching...

 

If we can get out with contributors on both lines and a WR that has potential...I'll be thrilled!

I agree with your general assessment. My only problem is that the position I think we really need help on on the O line is LT, and I don't like this class at LT at all. On the other hand, the guard crop seems really strong to me, to the extent that I think we can wait until the middle rounds and get a contributor. With that in mind, my current draft hope goes:

 

1) Nick Perry, DE, USC - DE depth in this draft falls off quickly, in my opinion, so I'd like to see it addressed early, if at all.

2) Brian Quick, WR, Appalacian State - Might need time to develop, but he's a young Brandon Marshall and I love the idea of having both of them for Cutler to throw to.

3) Leonard Johnson, CB, Iowa State - Great fit in a zone system who held his own against the top WRs in the Big 12.

4. Phillip Blake, C, Baylor - For an O-line that needs immediate help, a 26-year old rookie interior lineman isn't a negative, it's a positive.

I actually like the Quick pick if it was in the third. Perry isnt a valve at 19, thats a reach.
