Good move for Winston, he needs to get some help to harness his insane talent level.

Need is always a factor in picks. Anyone who thinks otherwise is sticking to some fantasy.

Strict BPA is also stupid and no one would do it. Would you draft 5 RB's if they all happened to be the best player on the board?

The thing with Star is that if he is the player he was in the later part of the season he is a really good player. But he hasn't been that guy consistently. Vernon Butler is kind of the same (albeit at a different role) in terms of his play. Granted this is off write ups and a little film but from what I know Butler can be flat out dominant but his play lapses a lot too.

I think he might take a year to be fully healthy. But I think with the insane depth at DT they can work him back as a rotational player.

I think Star's role is different. Star was complete trash for a lot of last season but from Thanksgiving on his play improved a lot and so did the rush defense. The biggest knock on Butler is that he is inconsistent.

Trent as good as he is, is still a 31 year old Tackle with an injury history who requires a big contract. Fans clamoring for him are falling in love with the name..

Harry was about to have a breakout season last year. I firmly believe his injury is what set back the rush defense in the middle of the season. So while I do agree that Jefferson is the second best DT I would put Butler about the same as Star and Henry.

DT is 5 deep with starting caliber players. Ed Oliver was above average as a rookie and fished strong, Quinton Jefferson was a impactful starter on a good defense last season. Henry Phillps was about to have a breakout season last year before he got hurt and should look to be a rotational player there. Star finished the year strong and plays a role in the defense. They also added Vernon Butler who is coming off his best season and is at worst a high end rotational DT.

Nice depth pick, love how McBeane really understands the needs of the team. Grab a CB in round 5.

None of them are as good as Diggs

WR or a secondary player for depth would be a nice way to round out this draft in round 4.

I like Addison to add some more pressure off the Edge and AJ adds some depth, I think Hughes also has one more solid year left. Murphy also is a rotational player. I like AJ more as a future piece than for short term impact but the depth a flexibility he provides is helpful.

I love it, great value at a position of need. Go get a WR in round 4.

Spain is at worst a midlevel starting guard. I don't see a weak link on the Oline granted my projection of Ford is optimistic. Dawkins - Above average LT Spain - Average at worst Mitch - Top 5 to 7 player at his position. Feliciano - Average to Above Average Ford - I project him to be more consistent in 2020 and at least be an average RT They have Long, William's, Ty and Bates off the bench all of whom I think are starting caliber players.

All 5 offensive line players were playing with each other for the first time last season and Ford was a rookie at a position that takes adjusting for alot of players. Oline is a unit where continuity matters more so than any other unit. I think all 5 starters along the O-line are average or better players (all of whom are under 30) and there is quality starting caliber depth behind them. I think Ford being more consistent and the continuity will propel the unit from a mid-level unit to a top 10 unit.

The youngest DE on the roster is 30

This is also a deep WR class there will be good options to add a skill position player in round 3

I think Ed Oliver will be that elite guy.

Fournette is a head case, definitely not a process guy. They would probably sign a RB like Carlos Hyde if they can't get a RB they like in the draft.

They probably don't like any of the QB's available.

Klein is being paid like a starter, I just don't see what good replacing Edumonds or Milano in the Nickel does unless you draft a player who can play in the slot corner spot regularly

I feel like a "Big Nickel" would have to play the slot corner position in order to justify sinking a second round pick into the position. Because I don't see what a Big Nickel player could do that is that much better than Milano and Edumonds both guys who fly across the field.

So who gets displaced in the Nickel? Milano or Edumonds? That would easily push Klein to the bench and given that they put in a decent chunk of change into him I think they probably want him to have some significant role no the defense. I get that, Milano and Edumonds are the starting LB's in the Nickel and both work well in coverage. So I don't see exactly what this need is?

Fully agree that's why I think expectations for him should be tempered. He should be worked in as a rotational player slowly.
