first....
agree with your take a the top of the board.
just with the weight that you and the rest of our board guys have placed on this draft.....your list makes absolute sense. can pretty well exclude those spots.
my over sense of what the new coach will do is to fill the best they can from this year's draft.
With no killer OLT in the group, and we will have to get a young OLT next year, the shopping list is longer than this year's draft can attend too.
believe that will stand for WR, as well.
barring an utter collapse by Goff, next year's shopping list will still have OT, and WR on it.
What I do feel can be addressed to a point is the TE spot. By all accounts, and just reading through Alyo's assessment of them; the team could get a couple with different toolsets, and come out pretty darn well.
the one thing that make me happy this week, is the coach has all the current players in and is getting a pretty decent feel for who has the football acumen to digest the new playbook. AND that goes for Wade, as well.
I'd really love to see us get a WR who either has the JuJu, Kupp sort of capabilities, or a rocket that at least race the 9 route, and get us freebie every so often.
That doesn't mean I expect a racer WR to be the "thing." We're going to still want one next year. Seems that the slots this year have an edge in the toolsets available.
And other spot would be to get a center. Granted.....most of the guys coming in have flaws, but sure appears that they could use this year as a redshirt and get the size and bulk addressed, and conditioning...so on and so on.
But yeah. The shopping list for next year probably includes so help for edge rushing, too.
