Figured this may spark some talk, I think we need to go WR in first round, but I’m a defense first kinda guy, so I’ll be happy either way. I just want them to trade back and get another pick or two (but I feel that way almost every draft season and it never happens haha)
Here’s some key players, hopefully we make impact choices regardless and get the best player available :)

Joe Tryon has all the physical abilities and good length... he’s a 3rd round steal ala Justin Tuck, and could become a similar player! He’s def an edge in position but comparable value to Tuck coming out of ND back in the day. Gonna be a good player in the league.
I think we’re gonna lose Tomlinson (fack) but that is the way this league works. To make up, we can snag Shelvin from LSU to put in the Tomlinson spot. He opted out for 2020, but he’s a big boy NT with some good developmental traits.... we snag him in the 4th Round... excellent value for what we lose in Tomlinson.
Look up “Jamin Davis on Kyle Pitts” this is the LB we’ve been dreaming of because he can actually cover TE’s!!! And even athletic freaks like Pitts... hahah ok maybe I shouldn’t buy the hype over one game, but he’s a sneaky later round pick, that could pay off down the road.
Davis’ teammate at CB, Kelvin Joseph, is another intriguing option to consider... Kiper has him shooting up the board currently... maybe stopping at the first round... but there’s no way he goes in the 1st, IMO. But he could be a target in round 2. I like that these rankings made me feel pretty good about the options we’ll have defensively in this draft.
I'm worried that Pitts is another Engram.
