Lot of good receivers left as well as corners.

Feeling good about it. What’s our big board look like?

Yeah there’s a handful of LB’s and DE’s. The value of today is at corner and OL though.

I feel really good about a receiving weapon falling to us though. Tremble, Freiermuth, Brown or Marshall. I think one of them makes it to our range

We don’t need a LB?

Who the **** can play the position outside of Gay and Hitchens? If one of those dudes is injured then we’re down to Darius Harris or Ben Niemann.

Yes....we still need a LB.

I mean if for some reason JOK were to be within reach, you take that guy. He's a utility player, not just a LB. Cox is a coverage LB unlike anybody currently on the team. He'd be a consideration as well because those guys wouldn't necessarily come off the field in passing situations.

JOK would theoretically play the Sorenson role, which would make sense.

But if we're talking about an off ball LB'er? Nah, I'd look for one of those later.

If there's someone you could take to replace HItchens I guess go for it, but that seems a bit redundant.

So you’re okay with Ben “better than Devin White per PFF” Niemann on the field then?

Because as it stands right now Ben ****ing Neiman is set to see significant playing time.

And we'll see how valuable you think that position is when you're cursing his name every Sunday.

And where they allocated a pick to that position has nothing to do with anything.

Hey, we'll have two 2nd round LB's. Cool.

If that's the way we're approaching this, then there are about 6 spots we "need". Who's your LT if Brown goes down?

We aren't gonna have depth everywhere.

Start looking at upgrades instead of depth.

He's light. He plays well against the run as a penetrator but when an OL gets their hands on him, he's often done. He doesn't have the bend or push to actually set the edge and win matchups.

I'm just not as high on him as others are I guess. I see him more as a 3-4 OLB.

And if either one of those guys is hurt? The cubbard is BARE.

I don’t think the ND kid is gonna be there for us. Good news is that Jabril Cox is a very similar type of player with really good athleticism and coverage.

He could cover TE’s for us

Absolutely disagree. He doesn’t get pushed around in the running game. He’s not Dee Ford. He can play 4-3 DE too.

The one they drafted last year hasn't even played much yet.

They rarely play with 3 on the field. So it woudl be more of a depth pick at this point.

But whatever. I'm cool with whoever.

Yep, I really think we're looking at a CB and IOL with these 2 picks.

What if Kelce gets hurt? What if one of the CB's goes down? What if Mathieu gets hurt?

Great news for us

I absolutely love what's left on the OL for Rounds 2-3 tomorrow. The top players left on my OL board with a day 2 or better grade: pic.twitter.com/jFa5WHW1sK

If they went Meinerz I wouldn't complain eventhough there are bigger needs.

Agreed. I don't think we need IOL depth. The line, all of a sudden, has plenty of depth.

I mention Walker Little, but if they draft him there's a log jam on the OL. It's still be awesome, but i bet it would also mean they're dumping LDT.
