JT Sanders has been such a disappointment.  I really thought he'd be good after his promising start to the rookie season. 

Ian Thomas looked promising his rookie season, too.   At this point I want a FA TE.  We have bigger fish to fry in the draft than taking a stab a another project TE, which isn't even a major component in this offense.

I wouldn't mind taking a shot at Kyle Pitts.

My dream FA splash signing. TMac, Coker, and Pitts would be a legit scary skill group for Bryce or whoever the next guy is. If Brooks comes back healthy to pair with Chubba, sheesh

We have to go heavy defense and throw some OL in the mix at some point.

I'm consistently mocking OT, ILB, Edge, CB, and WR-(s).  Either a S or second Edge/ILB regularly. I'm starting to a C consistently to the mix now.

Depending on who is left at #19, I wouldn't mind moving back to get a another late 3rd or 4th rounder.

do we have pick #235 or not?  Some sites have us with it and some have the Vikings.  I know it was part of the Thielen trade, but I thought due to playing time, we got it back.

Okay, the way I understand the trade according to one article I read is the 7th got flipped to a 5th. so we gained a 5th and lost our 7th. Is that correct?

That should be correct. All the conditions for it to work in our favor played out

This team simply needs more blue chip talent which is why BPA is the only way to go. It’s the best way to sustain long term success

We've still fuged up in the past going "BPA". We drafted Butler at DT and Shaq at LB when DT and LB were some of our biggest strengths of the roster. Butler was a flat out bust and Shaq was basically a JAG starter at LB. I know that triggers some folks, but sorry that's just the truth. We overdrafted him then doubled down on that and overpaid him.
