Re: the safety talk - There's a range of roles they fall into. And depending where on the spectrum, the value can absolutely align R1, but its rare. If you identify one that can play 80% snaps off the bat and has the skillset for robber and slot roles, then it aligns. The best slot a lot of the time (Hamilton, Branch, Emman, Pitre) It can be tantalizing but many of the time, those defenses were in a good spot already (BAL, SEA, HOU for example) And for a Fangio-esque defense running two-high-shell, heavy zone w/simulated pressures, and primarily 5 and 6 DB packages, having a guy that can adapt on a package-to-package basis is huge. If you find a guy that can play back, play robber, and play as a slot-defender all in one is one of the most valuable types in the NFL. Inversely, if you don't play that way, a FS has very minimal value. Overall, I would say there is still more inherent value in a 3 down DL or edge rusher. The nice thing about landing one is we have Ransom to pull back deep when they're in the slot. There's a few in R2 that could be interesting in this respect. -

Reader would be solid but Evero definitely has his preferences. His types on the DL (all spots) are a bit different than the other Fangio disciples. Even for 0/1, it seems likes the more athletic/fluid types over the power/clogs. And he doesn't mind using undersized guy like Turk opposite DB. I was really interested in Harmon & Tyleik Williams last year. Unfortunately they went way higher than expected so fell between our 1-2 picks. Unsure how this team thought of them. Would be nice to get someone a bit more fierce and a pocket-collapser alongside Brown. 2 of the 3 should have that ability to disrupt on any given play. Of the 1st Rd DLs, I definitely like McDonald but am a bit iffy on Woods & Banks. The two DL after Round 1 that I think could be real finds are Kaleb Proctor & Darrell Jackson Jr. -
Okay I hear Ed Oliver and Aaron Donald. Is that realistic? I been sleeping on this guy.
