You are pulling the trigger on our 1st pick in 2021.

a) Stud Wide Receiver
b) Stud Pass Rusher

You feel that either player is a Pro Bowl caliber player at their position.
Taking out the personalities, forgetting the names, and assuming all else to be equal.....

......what position pick elevates our team more?
 
Let’s see...the defense has been playing lights out and generating pressure and sacks and strips and TD against opposing QBs.

The offense can barely muster any thing.

OP ask defense vs offense which side needs more infusing of talent?

I would take the best WR available. Theres some interesting DE prospects that will fit Flores scheme to be had later in the draft. Also some LB/Edge hybrid types.

Wonder if Stronebridge the kid from NC is going to play any?
 
If I had to venture to guess I'd go with neither. Finding an elite pass rusher was never a top priority for the Pats during Flores' time there. They loaded up in the secondary and had a rotating cast of characters on the d-line.

Wide receivers drafted that high are so hit and miss. And even when you hit on one like Atlanta did with Jones or Cincinnati did with Green back in the '11 how often does that player end up contributing to a winning team? And when you draft a Corey Davis, Mike Williams, John Ross, Devin White, etc.... its so damaging to your team. I'd rather see them target someone they like in the late first/early second range.
 
Our D has been scheming lately and getting to the QB. Ogbah is playing lights out. Not so sure who id pick that high as a DE. Rousseau is tempting, but he’s a boom/bust pick. Think you can find some good edge rushers with 2A pick.

Think we need to grab someone who’s plug and play. Id go WR with our 1B (one of Bateman, the 2 Bama WR or Rondale Moore should be available). For 1A, I’m going OT Sewell if the stars line up in our favor. Plan B: LB with Parsons or Mosley. Heck, I might even consider a trade down and grab OC Humphrey (who I think will be gone by pick 12-15).
 
It would wise to take Sewell if he is on the board, and of course have to see what is available when the pick comes, but If Miami could get two of the following WRs Chase, Smith, Bateman, Waddle, Moore and Harris or Etienne with 3 of their first 4 picks I would be pleased.

The majority of the other picks could focus on defense. Get Tua some weapons.

I personally believe you take the player that makes you better in the 1st round, not just stick to a unit that may be need help.

Depending on how Micah Parsons looks, and if he is there when we 1st pick, I would take him, then with our second pick in the 1st, if one of the top receivers is still there...take him.

After watching the last couple of games, I would go with making a pick that would increase the talent level of the offense. Defense is much farther along, skill-wise, than what we see offensively. Therefore, I would go with Wide Receiver here.
