Then look for a guard to replace Waters in the next year or two in the 4th. If Brown lives up to his potential we'll have quality depth at the position unless Lilja doesn't pan out. Then in the 5th surely there'll be a RT on the board (possibly swap out with the guard in the 4th)

I think the switch to zone blocking helps Brown quite a bit. There is a reason he wasn't on the previous regimes scouting radar. He played in a spread. I'm sure the new regime knew in which direction they were heading at all times.
