WR or OT

[SgtJoo]

There's a backlog of talent at the tackle position this year.

 

Amari Cooper is on the board when we pick, but so are 2-3 first round grade tackles.

 

Who do you choose?

[davos]

I'd actually like that SS Collins from Bama if we don't go OT

[C47]

Kevin White or Cooper. You don't pass on a potentially elite player to take a need. Especially as high as we'll be drafting. I question whether any of the OT in this class are elite. 

[Strawman]

Cooper. If you saw the iron bowl, this guy is the real deal. Lineman can be found later, or through free agency.

[2plankingpanther]

I'd go for an offensive lineman 1st because the current ones on the roster are quite offensive!

[WesleyM]

If someone wants the qb that we could draft we trade for it. We have a franchise qb. We have a high school o line, oc, hc, st coach, etc etc etc

[updownsigma]

The bust rate of blue chip OTs over the past few years scares me, so I'd go with Cooper.  Double dip at OT in middle rounds and hope to find a starter.

Posted in another thread, but applies here: 

 

 

The bright side now that this season is officially in the toilet? We will be adding a major talent on either the offensive line or a stud playmaker for Cam. We will most likely be picking top 5 and should have a good shot at either Amari Cooper, Andrus Peat, or Brandon Scherff.

 

With Peat or Scherff, the line next season would probably look like:

 

Peat or Scherff/Norwell/Kalil/Turner/Bell 

 

which would be an exponential upgrade over this season's line IMO.

 

Or if we take Cooper, can you imagine Cooper and Benjamin outside the numbers, Philly in the slot, and Olsen patrolling the middle with an actual NFL caliber OC? 

 

And even if the stud ex-QB offensive playmakers are somehow picked ahead of us, there's great defensive line talent in Leonard Williams, Randy Gregory, or Shane Ray (personally I would advocate a trade down if those 3 offensive players I mentioned are gone by the time we pick, but still, good talent available).

 

[Sean Payton's Vicodin]

OT is a bigger need but there's really not a lot of great OTs in the next draft. Scherff will eventually be a guard. Andrus Peat is too raw to be picked top 7, everyone else is irrelevant.

 

COOPER is fuging amazing.

[t96]

NEITHER - LANDON COLLINS. WE NEED ATTITUDE.

[ctrcat]

Cooper is a pipe dream I'm afraid. He may even go #1 overall and will almost certainly be out of our reach, IMHO. While that sucks, it's OK because I'd rather have an OT.

[JawnyBlaze]

Go with the best prospect at either position.  If Cooper and all the OTs are there, if any of the OTs look to be on par with Cooper, take the OT.  But none are looking like it at the moment, in my opinion.  I'm thinking/hoping we get Cooper and a good OT in the 2nd.

[Swaggasaurus]

Cooper, we need a big play threat. Kelvin is basically a Keyshawn. A talented tackle is a must...we need someone who can make big plays more

[t96]

Kevin White or Cooper. You don't pass on a potentially elite player to take a need. Especially as high as we'll be drafting. I question whether any of the OT in this class are elite. 

 

I'd go with either Cooper or Collins, and I'd rather have Collins. Collins fits a need and is a potentially elite player. I would be upset if we took a OT first. We'll have enough cap space with Hardy off the books to sign actually serviceable tackles and can draft some in the 2nd/3rd/4th.
