I think OBJ is coming back and Clark likely is as well on a reduced deal. So if you can get a potentially dynamic WR in the first, a twitchy rusher, even as a rotational DE w/ Clark for a season in the 2nd round, and then a rangier safety in the 3rd or solid DT prospect in the 3rd, I think you're sitting awfully pretty.

Listen, I want the shiny sexy option in the first rd too. A WR would be awesome.
I just look at the history of the league and us specifically and cannot get around a tackle being the obvious choice. In the Super Bowl you’re almost assuredly gonna face elite pass rushing units. We did all 3 times and it’s basically the standard.
I think drafting a RT early, spending on team friendly receivers like we just did with Juju, MVS and Watson and then using the 3rd-4th rd on athletic types (trade for Toney) is the smart money.
Would really like to get more speed guys too. Calvin Austin, Danny Gray, Devin Duvernay, etc. They’re there. And they could at worst be a gadget type player.
I think that’s what they’re doing tbh. Getting guys like Corey Coleman and Josh Gordon as well as John Ross this year as a futures signing is just the beginning to try to get those guys any way we can.
I just can’t get on board with staying with guys like Wylie and Remmers at RT anymore
