If we could get Hodges, Kittle or Leggett with one of our our fourth rounders I think We'd be fine.
No way we are forced/ locked in to take Engram at 37 even if he's there because of the TE depth this year.
Of course whoever we take ( Non TE or WR ) or who we take later (trade down ) has to be a real factor towards winning football.
Be they Lineman or skill position player our first selection, ,
Wait our top four selections all have to be a very sound picks.
I don't want to lock in too much to needs like the clear consensus at C, CB, LB, WR, or TE more than having faith in the player evals from the scout dept. Going best graded vs need.
I do think they have to slightly tilt to offence in their first two picks though just because that area needs beefing up.
I wouldn't be surprised if one of those was an offensive lineman.
Wouldn't hurt one bit.
You just said a mouthful, Craig.
Yeah, we have 4 big needs.
WR
CB
TE
C
Two more slightly lesser ones in Edge and LB. Maaaaaybeee at S, too.
But the way the talent at positions is stacked, we don't have to take any of them necessarily at #37 or #69.
As Alyo has said numerous times, starters will be there at the 4 Ram most needed positions through the fourth round if we pick wisely.
So yeah, the smart play is to let the draft come to us. Maybe even consider a modest trade down from #37.
