I'm going to go with Trevon Diggs.

I think CB is a need for us, not just this year but as Fuller's contract balloons its going to stay a need for us. I believe in family/genetics/lineage generally speaking, and his brother has been an excellent pro. Love Alabama players. Excellent measurables. He's projected as a first rounder but could fall.

Not the greatest "need" (but still a need) but I think he's the Playmaker this offense needs.

My other choice is Jeff Gladney.

Cesar Ruiz

Probably goes 26-36ish, but with only a few teams looking for C every year, if just 1-2 decide to go with something else, you can get a slide.

Jalen Reagor, need some explosion on offense!
NYer that fell in love with Sweetness destroying defenders with that legendary stiff arm @ 8 yrs old. I'll never forget those early days and now, after many many years we have some integral players that'll be the key to success in the very near future.

I think I agree with Reagor. He’s got speed but he’s not a one trick pony.

1b for me would probably be Ruiz

So that Ryan Pace can take someone else? lol
Mikefive's theory: The only time you KNOW that a sports team player, coach or management member is being 100% honest is when they're NOT reciting "the company line".

Josh Jones and Mims would be the most perfect scenario possible in round 2, we would be lucky to get either at 43 with the way the mocks have looked lately. OTs have all seemed to be drafted ahead of their talent level and Mims is not making it out of round 1 any more.

I'll pass on Mims

I like Claypool and Pittman and Van Jefferson more than him

So update me to Josh Jones - then a trade down where we still land one of Claypool/Pittman/Van Jefferson

AJ Epenesa. Not at all a need, but I'm an Iowa fan and he's good and 1000% an awesome guy.

Ross Blacklock, since there's been no run on safeties and Chinn seems like market value with one of our 2nds.

Better yet, anyone who compels another team to back up the truck for us.
So much road and so few places, so much friendliness and so little intimacy, so much flavour and so little taste.

Friendship is better than fighting, but fighting is more useful.

After round 1 already in the books, either Antoine Winfield or LLoyd Cushenberry....or both.

With Reagor off the board I vote for Denzel Mims, not a fan of Hamler and the WR position needs some speed. Then the best S on the board at 50.

I don't follow college so I know little about the guys coming out. But I want to see: OL-S-OL-WR-TE-OL
I'm gone. Have a nice life. I'm clearly not wanted here.

I really was hoping it would be either Reagor or Aiyuk, but since they're gone I'll say SS Grant Delpit at #43 and at #50 either TE Cole Kmet or WR KJ Hamler
