Non-OTs or WRs we could target in the 1st

Outside of the obvious two Safeties, another guy I think we could look at is Arik Armstead if we truly have no intention of bringing Hardy back.  NFL.com lists him as a DT, but I think he could get leaner and play DE for us.  6'8 290 is what he's listed at now, think I read somewhere he was playing in college at 285.  I think he's being talked about as a potential first round guy, could be there when we pick and seems he'd be versatile enough to fill part of Hardy's roles (run stopper, could offer some pass rush, move inside on passing downs).  If we're looking at a DL in the first, I hope it's this guy.  I don't buy that we need another DT right now, not a 1st round pick on one anyway.  A big DE that has the tools to dominate?  Yes please.

CB: If Jalen Collins falls, yes please.  Quentin Rollins could be a reach but a possibility. 

 

SS: Shaq Thompson, yes please.  Seems to be a dropoff after Landon and Shaq at SS.   

 

There's also a sleeper for us at OLB that would fit perfectly with TD and Luke ---that's Paul Dawson

 

Armstead seems like a guy Arians would go after for his defense, I wouldn't be mad though.  I don't know about their 1st round value but Carl Davis and Xavier Cooper at DT would be some guys to take note of that could fill D'wan's role.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
