If they take another Edge in the 1st round I'm gonna die laughing.

There is a difference between a DE and an OLB...
Different responsibilities... it isn't all about sacks.
Many seem to believe that Chubb is a June 2nd cut or trade if possible, and many want that. Also JP15 has suffered 2 back to back major injuries to what provides explosion and bend, and are we positive he'll be the same player he was before those injuries?
Obviously we have some dire needs across the lineup to include OL, DL, but we have 10 picks and free agency hasn't started.
Edge certainly is a position of concern. You do not win without disruption from both edges.

You can make a case for it, depending on what happens in free agency. For example, if we sign 2 guards and a corner and a safety. Then priorities change. And then Chubb is a post June cut. Anybody speculating on who our pick will be is just guessing. This year more than any, you have to wait until you see what we do in free agency.
I think you need to look at who will be healthy and will be cut as to what positions need to be filled.

You may die, but I highly doubt you will be laughing.

Pass rush was nowhere near good enough last year, def agree it needs attention. Need interior pressure just as bad. 3 picks minimum should be spent on front 7
It's just funny to me if they take Edge in round 1, basically admitting mistakes on Phillips and Chubb. Just another drop in the ocean of awful Grier decisions.
JP15 was not a mistake draft selection lol...he suffered 2 injuries that were not concussions, which was his collegiate injury profile. These unfortunate things happen in a violent game. It sucks. It is what it is.
Chubb was a desperate move in an attempt to move the needle, while he had an impact for others initially, his 2nd season he was good...but because we signed him, we lost CW94. After June 2nd we might have neither guy.
I want a blue chip talent with 13 and there will be a few available...jury is out on who we select. Drafting a star edge wouldn't be a bad selection imho.
I'd rather see Tyler Warren to be honest as he affects pass protection, run blocking, the seam and the red zone...but if we landed a bonafide stud pass rusher who blossoms with Chop the next 8-10 years we would benefit greatly from that.
Free agency needs to bring in starters at G, DL, CB and S...it's doable. For the draft we have 10 selections, and off averages 5 should hit.
I'd like to go Warren 1st, Donovan Jackson 2nd, then hit S, DL, CB maybe with trade ups into 3rd-5th rounds.
Chubb was a mistake for sure, Jaelen Phillips was not.
Phillips was absolutely the right pick. It hurts my heart to know his career has essentially disappeared.
I'm glad his 2025 money is guaranteed.
