Hello,

I think our FO made solid move in Free Agency but In my opinion we have many holes in our roster.
With many pick I would double or triple on many positions

I would Double or Triple on OT (my favorite are Whirf, Andrew Thomas and Driscoll later)
I would double on OG-C : Cushenberry, Biadaz, Kindley
I would double on CB (not a pressing need but a very solid year IMO and never enough good corner in Flores system and in NFL) : I love Gladney, Danser, and later Hall, Vildor and Bandy in 6 or 7 rounder

Opinions on that

Don't think I'd triple up anywhere, but I could see us grabbing a couple of tackles and Interior oline. Honestly, oline is our biggest need outside of QB.

Safety and slot corner are needs, but I don't see us doubling those. We have x, Jones and Rowe, unless they plan to make rowe full time FS...
 
OT would seem to be the biggest candidate. Maybe DB.

Need 2 starting OTs and an RG, depending on where they play Jesse Davis and if he’s a starter or not

I’d get my two OTs early, and later on in th draft you could look at add a third guy, some with swing tackle ability or maybe an interior back up


DB- Id like to say grab two safeties but it feels like our coaches hold McCain in a higher respect than we do, and Rowe is a solid TE eliminator, but I’d like some new blood. I could see adding a corner and safety each though
 
I think ideally you want to draft versatile lineman so you don't need to double or triple draft. If you can find someone that took quality snaps at guard and tackle you don't have to draft 2 tackles and 2 guards. With that said I would draft BPA, there is no unit on this team that one can say is strong all around. Even with Jones and Howard being starters you need quality depth.
 
We need some consistency on the line with the injection of youth who may be around for a few years. Don’t need 5 pro bowlers but above average hogs who can gel
 
And I forgot about needham. So really, unless we are taking late round fliers on guys, I don't see us drafting more than 1 corner.
 
Offensive line is the obvious need but with 14 Draft picks we can double up in a few areas and still have the picks to trade up when we want to. I'd consider DT as an area to get more depth and we might just luck into another Davon Godchaux, who was a late round pick. In addition, you can never have enough good DBs and RBs.
 
Play our cards right and we should be able to cover needed position with some level of ease, if done right. In which possibly Tua out of the picture.

Realistically we can have a more than good shot at Thomas 12, (moved back 5 with Raiders get 12-19) 18 McKinney our S, Maybe a Love at 19 (raiders 19 for our 5th), 26 Ruiz Center G,
Second & third rd, RB Swift, NT Raehwon Davis, OT Niang, G Damien Lewis.

Boda Bing OL (LT,RT,C,G) set, S set, NT set,, RB set and truthfully probably throw any dependable QB back there. Don't need 2 or 3 same positions... Again maybe not these exact players but this Draft first 3 rds are almost unbelievable with talent and we have come loaded for bear....

Also we havent even gotten to the 4-5-6-7 rds and see mostly trades for establishing another power house for next years Draft..

OT for sure I could see us drafting two of them. Then I could see us drafting a guard and a Center but not two of each.
Maybe a RB early and one later.
I don't see us drafting 14 players tho and I hope we turn at least one or two of those picks into higher 2021 picks.
 
We currently have 14 picks, so I’d expect to see a bunch of OL, interior DL, and DBs taken. Throw in a RB/WR or 2 and perhaps a TE and that’s the draft. Minus the QB we take of course.
 
As it stands right now, Miami has the worst offensive tackles in the NFL. I'd love to pair up the Georgia duo of Thomas and Wilson, or something like that.

Thomas is probably a top 15 pick, but could make it to #18. Wilson might be there late in round two.

If Miami takes Tua, I'd double up at quarterback.

Mostly, I'd follow the talent in the draft.

Of those 14 picks, 3 are 5ths, 1 6th, and 3 7ths.

How valuable are they really?

Occasionally you get a 5th rd gem. Sometimes you find a guy you can PS, and develop. Usually though, they don't make your roster, and never see meaningful NFL snaps.

If we were to actually draft players with those lowest 7 picks, how many can you expect to make the roster? I think 2 or maybe 3, if 1 is a punter?
 
I want to double up on tackle before the end of day two, i.e. moving up from 18 for one of the big 4 and then looking at Wilson at 56 or Peart at 70. We need long term starters at both tackle spots, and I wouldn't discount drafting another later as a potential swing.

I think that's the position we're most likely to double/triple up. Running back is another -- one early, another late.
