I voted WR simply because I think it's likely that the top OTs are gone and there will be better value available at WR.  Guys I'd have no problem with at #28 who might actually be on the board include:

 

Brandin Cooks

Jordan Matthews

Kelvin Benjamin

Allen Robinson

 

Probably in that order.

This. Minus Kelvin Benjamin and adding Lee because it appears he might be there.

I'm just admittedly jaded by USC WRs.  The guy looks like the real deal, but so have several before him who didn't work out.  A USC WR who was widely touted as a top 10 pick who starts sliding and all of a sudden looks likely to be a late 1st round or 2nd round pick?  Yeah, we've seen that story play itself out before.  Right here in Charlotte.  Twice.

I want BPA regardless of position (excluding positions where we are set for years to come...MLB and QB for example). I think that we all, myself included, get caught up in positional needs when we should really just be looking for the best football player.

 

Normally I'd agree, but we just have such glaring holes at OT and WR that need has to take a bit of precedence at those positions.  Now obviously you're not going to draft a huge reach if there's a clearly better talent available, but given fairly closely ranked prospects, I would hope we'd hedge toward need.  Plus, with the WR depth in this class, I just can't see all the worthy guys being gone by #28 and I wouldn't want to risk waiting until the 2nd because I have a sneaking suspicion that there's going to be a big run on WRs in the 2nd round.  If we don't jump on one in the first, I fear that we'll be sadly disappointed by the available options at #60.

either LT or WR or top pass catching TE.

 

i eant us to double dip  OT and WR and pick up another CB.

 

I'd love to see a double dip at both OT and WR.  I think the depth in the class is definitely there at both positions to do it if we chose to do so.  Definitely at WR.  I think we're really fuging up if we don't end up with two WRs out of this draft.  This has a chance to be the strongest WR draft since '96 (Keyshawn Johnson, Terry Glenn, Marvin Harrison, Eric Moulds, Armani Toomer, Moose, T.O., Joe Horn).

I would say OL here, but unless Lewan freefalls, I'd say the value one would get @28 from a WR would be greater than you would get with a tackle that far down. 

 

Yep, Lewan is the one OT that I'd jump on in a heartbeat at #28.  Maybe Martin, but I just haven't seen enough ND football to form a legit opinion.  I know some are concerned about his size and arm length, but he's a near clone of Jordan Gross physically and I think we can all agree that #69 played pretty well for us.

    • Rotating in Chuba was beyond stupid and really hurt our offense overall. We’ve been in a good rhythm the last 6 quarters or so but Canales figured disrupting that with Chuba would be worth it Rico fits this offense so much better than Chuba    As far as grades go I know that ain’t our RB1, starting Center and our supposedly deep WR room and exciting talented young TE in dead last. Weird. I wonder if that has any correlation on QB play  Even that first incomplete ball Bryce threw in the end zone that hit Legette’s hands. Legette had no business being there so early. Legette went into scramble drill when that ball was intended for Coker who led up because of the traffic there
    • Yeah Jets have pretty much been in every game they've played and have barely lost to really good teams. They are much better than their record says Imo
    • I kinda just wanna see what the offense can do with a QB who has proven he can move the football in the NFL. If Dalton wasn't a shadow of his former self I'd be fine with him but Father Time has definitely caught up with him. If we start piling up the losses as the schedule gets tougher and the passing offense continues to be anemic that might cast Canales his job and it's worth a very low risk move IMO to at least give him a fighting chance. The thought of yet another Tepper rebuild just isn't at all exciting to me having already seen a few of them. I'm about giving this current guy a fighting chance.
