    yes obvious needs but at 21 you are already at the 4th,5th or 6th ranked WR, the 4th 5th, 6th ranked CB instead of the top ranked TE plus whatever else he can bring as a receiver. there are plenty of corners and wide receivers that can fit the same bill as the what is left at the 21st spot but the multi role receiving TE is not. look what kelcy and mahomes did for years together. sure they have aged now but what they did prior to last year was a thing of beauty. you can't let the smith and smith experiment determine the upside the kid brings. :cool:

    well free agency has started and it may change the drafting a little bit. 2 corners, ILB depth, RB replaced, #2 WR. that is a good start. it may rearrange how we look at needs. depending on what they decide on queen and ramsey and the guard position.

    DL could be an option but i think it will be more of a depth piece right now.

    OT? maybe.

    S again depending on ramsey and it may depend on jamison. i think he could be a possibility.

    ILB, depending on queen.

    corner more of a depth down the road addition.

    WR? maybe still a good chance. possibly more of a slot type.

    :cool:

    That’s a massive assumption that top 3 wr’s and cb’s are gone by 21. Mite point now as Guard, DT, QB or ILB are in play now depending on what happens in the rest of FA.

    massive?

    CB's Delane
    Terrell
    McCoy

    WR's Tyson
    Tate
    Lemon

    all are slotted to go before 21. that's 3 of each. so as i said we would be looking at the 4th WR and the 4th CB. :cool:

    OK since free agency has started some things have changed slightly. doesn't mean some of the same spots won't be taken but added to.

    2 CB's 1 added 1 re-signed dean and samuel
    1 S added savage
    2 WR added pittman and perry
    1 RB added dowdle
    2 DL re-signed otomewu and heyward
    1 LB re-signed holcomb
    1 punter added johnston
    1 O-Lineman added jack driscoll
    still waiting to hear about a Guard signing. possible. hoffman


    1 TE cut. smith
    1 RB lost gainwell
    1 G lost seumalu
    1 punter not re-signed waitman
    1 WR not resigned austin
    1 FB/TE not re-signed heyward
    1 BU Tackle cut anderson
    1 BU Center not re-signed mccullom

    remember donald parham was signed last year only to get hurt early and smith was signed and now cut.

    i'm pretty sure omar isn't quite done yet. stay tuned. :cool:
