Feel like Burks, Wilson, and London will be off the board at the SF pick. Bell there would be good with me, though.
Last two years wideouts flew off the board. I do not see the 2022 draft as any different. I guess I could live with Wilson and Olave if no one else is available in second, but I think the team will stick with Bama receivers, Metchie and/or Williams if they want to draft more gadgety smallish receivers. Other than those two Waddle-like gadgets, I want Burks or Bell in round 1. I think Grier needs to end day 2 with two of those 4.
To the extent that I am not a big fan of gadgety wackadoo Bama offense and receivers. My ranking for WRs right now for us is: 1 Burks, 2 Bell 3 Williams 4 Metchie 5 Doubs. Wherever we pick, let;s say #20 and #40.
As far as Oline, we need it, but I think the long term approach needs to apply here. Oline will need developing and we need weapons to compete, so first we need wideouts since 4 of the 5 on the roster are unrealiable and need to go.
Anyway, I would love if we can get out of this draft, having picks 100, 112, 118, 150 let's say, with 2 tackles, a center, and a guard or a RB,
My ranking right now for tackles is:
1. Daniel Faalele RT, 2. Tyler Vrabel LT, 3. Cross T, 4. Wanya Morris T If one or two of those happen to fall to 100 to 150 where we pick, we need to grab them. After the combine things will crystalize here.
After that. I think there are some developmental tackles I would target in with last two picks in 200s. Those guys can start but they are just not top notch: Ryan Hayes MICH, Frere OSU, AJ Arcuri MSU, Trevor Penning UNI, Connor Galvin BAY, Jaxson Kirkland UW, Braxton Jones SUtah. Plenty option on late day 3 better than what we have.
Centers: 1. Jarret Patterson ND, 2. Ricky Stromberg. That's abut it.
Guards: I would targert Doug Nester WVU, Cade Mays TEN, Ed Ingram LSU on day 3. There are way to fix the line on day 3. especially considering that right now center and guards are serviceable.
But no way would I spend premium day 1 and 2 picks on some Olinemen.
