I'm thinking that we may not have any or, maybe one at RT if we make a trade or one falls to us. The other possibility could be LB. Not saying they will not be good payers or won't help the team, and be starters in a year. Just that I don't see much for this year.

Any other positions?
 
We damn well better nab atleast 1-2 immediate starters or we can look fwd to more yrs of mediocrity. The roster is simply not that stacked that we take time with each and every draft selection like last yr. Look for OL, LB, S. Possibly CB or RB depending how it unfolds.
 
RT, good chance at Guard, WR if guys arent good coming off injury, and maybe RB if they go there early and like what they get.
 
OG, RT off the top of my head. Maybe ILB, with Ellerbe moving to OLB and Wheeler to the bench.
 
If Miami has an offer to trade down in the first rd into the mid 20's they can nab 3 potential starters in the first 3 rounds.

1)Trade down in the 1st rd Guard Xavier Su'a Filo
2)2nd rd RB Carlos Hyde
3)3rd rd from trade* RT Micheal Schofield
4)3rd rd ILB Shayne Skov

Another way of adding a starter may be going the FS route. We know Delmas has had injury issues and it may be smart to have a backup/future plan. If there is feeling that Skov may last until the 4th, i'd take FS Dion Bailey in the 3rd then Skov in the 4th rd (or LB Jordan Zumwalt). I also believe that it is time to move on from Thigpen as he did absolutely nothing for us last year on special teams. I'd like to see a late rounder used on a guy like De'anthony Thomas out of Oregon to provide some big play ability in the return game. So if you count that as a starting position that could be a 4th potential starter out of this draft. It all depends on if a team like the Browns or Niners get desperate and want to move up...
