    Well I still have some questions, and of course the whole Deebo thing can change things drastically, but until/if that happens, we can't count on it, so here's my best guess of what Joe Douglas will do:

    #4 - Ikem Ekonwu, OT/G
    #10 - Jermaine Johnson, DE
    #35 - Jahan Dotson, WR
    #38 - Daxton Hill, S/CB
    #69 -Troy Anderson, LB
    #111 - Jerome Ford, RB
    #117 - Alex Lindstrom, C
    #146 - Tyquan Thornton, WR
    #163 - Damarri Mathis, CB

    I doubt it turns out this way, but I'd be happy if it did.

    Solid job - nothing dramatic but gets the job done. Apparently a lot of folks would not be happy with an OT at 4 but Ekwonu would be an anchor for the next 10 years. Both current OTs are a question mark whether people want to admit it or not.

    I'd love to get a DT, somewhere in Day 2, but unless another Day 2 pick is added, it's probably not feasible to address every need.

    I do like the top 5 picks quite a bit though.

    It might actually play out this way..we solve 2 big problems

    OTOH they say JJ stock rising so hopefully there at 10 ..if not?? Then what?

    I want us to grab the best Edge at 4 but I guess Ickey is too valuable to pass up

    Way to go Colorado. We should be very happy with that. IMO I don't see Lindstrom lasting that long but that would be awesome. My hunch is an IDL with the #69 pick and a LB at#38,

    I wouldn't argue with that either, they're both needs that have to be addressed.

    I like it. Dotson would be just fine with me as the main WR acquisition, but I do think he'll go earlier. I was interested in Dax Hill and now believe he'll be there in the 2nd though did read recently about some character/bad interview rumblings so doubt he'd be the pick if that's at all true.
    As others have said, I'd like to see a DT added, whether at 38 or elsewhere.

    I feel like there is going to be both a trade up back into the first, and a trade back in the second. Essentially, they will be moving their early third rounder to a late third.

    Probably trade up a for WR in the first with 35 and 69, and trade back from 38 and get an additional 3rd somewhere in the 85-105 area.

    This gives you the opportunity to get your guy with the fifth year option, while maintaining the same number of darts you throw.

    Edit- Also, I'd be pretty darn happy with this draft.

    Did we just draft an insurance policy at 4? What happens next? Becton traded? Fant traded? Can’t draft Ekwonu at 4 without a solid plan to what happens next.

    Don’t mind the rest of draft, albeit extremely unlikely most of the names make it to the spots you pick them.

    You got one so far Johnson. I hope they get Ford like him a lot.
