Predictions:

1. QB (Young)

37-45. LB/Edge.  Hopefully a small trade back and pick up an extra 5th (GB and NE are options). Ojulari, Sanders, McDonald, Campbell (if they believe Luvu can move outside), Herbig, Hall, etc.  

93. CB.  Preferences are Brents, Mitchell, Rush.  May have to move up a little here.

114. G Zavala, Wypler, etc.

116-117. DL if we trade back in second. Harrison, Carter, Young could all be there.

132. RB (Evans, Miller)

145. WR/TE

As you can see from this photo taken at my last physical, I am more than qualified to modify my answer if the only prerequisite is "having a pair."  In fact, I think I may have been the inspiration for a South Park episode, but I digress.

Now that I have provided my qualifications, I would like to offer a revised opinion:

1. Young

39.  Trade back:  DJ Turner, CB, Michigan (reason?  As much as I want an edge here, Jackson may not be slightly above average after the Achilles injury.  Henderson and Taylor have been toasted a lot.  Horn is solid, and needs to be on the #1 WR, not playing nickel.  Turner makes us better immediately-he starts off by playing the nickel and next season, when Jax moves on, becomes the #2 CB.)

93.  Matt Bergeron, OT, Syracuse (Reason?  Bergeron can play swing T and allow for Mays and Christensen and McCray to compete for the LG position.   Bergeron would be an ideal replacement for Moton when he becomes too expensive to keep in a year or two.  The OL needs depth, and I feel that we will address the OL in this draft after drafting a small QB.)

114.  Nick Hampton, OLB/Edge, Tweetsie U (Reason?  Hampton is a special pass rusher--just kinda sucks vs. the run.  We need a pass rushing edge on passing downs opposite Burns.  Imagine moving Brown to NT and YGM (for example) to DE?)

145. Luke Schoonmaker, TE, Michigan (reason?  Solid #2 TE that fills a need)

168.  (For trade from 39 to about 45 in round 2):  Anthony Bradford, G/T, LSU.  (Reason?  We need depth on the OL and he can play 4 positions.  By trade, a RG to give depth behind Corbett and perhaps his future replacement.)

Not bad. I could be all aboard with that draft.

White is easier to get dirty. If you plan on eating/drinking in a white jersey you better be extra careful. I stained a lot of white jerseys in my life.

Considering wings are a popular food during games I will stay clear of white.  Blue or black for me.

Have been doing some hard digging and re-evals of what I'll call the "big 5 classes" needs wise - WR, TE, RB, EDGE, & CB.  Gotta say, I've got some new favorites in each (after the obvious top few):

WR:

Marvin Mims - Blazer, hands-catcher, aggressive with ball-in-hand, strong route runner.  Coming from Oklahoma, just needs to acclimate to NFL zone concepts.  Teams are VERY high on him.  Totally under the radar and a perfect fit.  Can play inside and outside.  Punt returner.  He's my top fitting WR to compliment the group.  EXCELLENT kid, really high character, super well-spoken and sharp.  

TE:

Tucker Kraft - This guy is a nightmare for any non-ILB once he catches the ball.  He's an agile freight train of a man.  Reich has had strong TEs on his squads, I think we need one to take over in the next year or so w Hurst tutelage.  

RB:

Kendre Miller - A well-rounded, hard running, workhorse that would be a really nice blend with Sanders.  

EDGE:

Derick Hall - 6'3 255 kid with great length, bend and burst. That's all you can ask for a 3-4 EDGE with his type of upside.  Another high-character, great teammate type per league sources.

CB:

Darius Rush - Another big, long physical type who can play in the Fangio style coverages.  Would be great to reunite him with Jaycee.

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.

      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.
