I got a feeling Wade has got his hand dealt to him for the most part especially if TruJ stays. I don't expect him to get many reinforcements in this draft.
Personally, I think the best plan is WR at 37, and OC at 69. I would target defense no sooner than round 4.
That's too much of a "needs oriented" take, max. IMO, of course.
The BPA that falls to #37 could easily be a D player.
Would have to be a helluva C that fell to #69 to justify that pick, as well. Don't see that coming.
I still see CB, WR, and TE in some unknown order among our first 4 picks. Best value/need player at each pick. The KISS method.
We shouldn't force a pick, nor should we overthink them. I will settle for solid up and down this draft.
No trade up's at #37, no reaches, no presently injured players, no danged drama. Just give me solid. Solid players under this coaching staff can get us to 10-6 this year, I believe.
If there's a D player that drops to #37 then its likely someone will pay a premium for him. Never forget, whoever the kid is, its a crap shoot. I'd trade down a few spots pick up an extra 4th and go offense in the 2nd round. That's just me. One of the best move the Rams made under Snead was the trade down to take Havenstein and get the extra pick.
I have no problem with a modest trade down from #37, max. Assuming that there are numerous remaining players that they see at least one of as available at that new pick. Numerous pundits have declared this draft to have a virtual talent plateau from picks 25-50, or so. I just wonder, therefore, where is the motivation for another team to want to trade up 10 picks, or thereabouts?
