[QUOTE="Favre>Rodgers259, post: 745431, member: 10866"] Yes, we do need another OL; particularly OT, I would say. However, this is a team that probably would have picked 30th-32nd if AR had not gotten hurt and with Jones taking off like he has. So if we're picking Top 5 or Top 1o, we need a player who is literally a "plug-and-play" Pro Bowler/Rookie of the Year. I haven't done a lot of research on the Draft Class of this year because normally we're still in the thick of the Playoff Race and trying to see what could use a little bit more improvement, but for the 2018 Draft, if there is a silver lining, we're getting players we wouldn't normally "deserve" to get. So with that being said, unless there is an Orlando Pace or Jonathan Ogden out there when we pick we go after the best game changer there is on Defense. We can go after an OL in the 2nd or 3rd Rounds, or probably right where TT likes them in Rounds 4-6; which still won't be too bad because with our "higher than normal" position we should still get a hopefully "better" type of prospect. Arden Key would only be a DE in a 4-3 Defense and Bradley Chubb plays DE in a 4-3 Defense for NC State. So unless the firing of Dom Capers is imminent(Please Sweet Baby Jesus), I don't see us going after either player, at least as a DE. I haven't seen tape on Chubb with his hand up at all, so only Key would have value at the OLB spot. Depending on Draft Position in the 1st Round, I would go: Arden Key, OLB - LSU Trenton Thompson, DE - Georgia Dorace Armstrong, OLB - Kansas Roquan Smith, LB - Georgia Clelin Ferrell, OLB - Clemson Taven Bryan, DE - Florida Josh Allen, LB - Kentucky Harold Landry, OLB - Boston College Austin Bryant, OLB - Clemson I know nine guys is a lot, but it's just too early to know for sure where we end up in the Draft, plus there are a lot of big games still yet to be played in college, so these guys will slide and rise as we get closer to December, as will our Draft Position. And don't get me started on the combine.... [/QUOTE]
