2016 NFL Draft (2nd and 3rd round) Day 2

My guess is it will be defense for the most part the rest of the weekend, DL, ILB, S. I'm convinced that they are not going to reach for a need though. It will probably be best player available, and if that BPA is not a need, trades will occur.

That being said, I would be surprised if we don't see at least two of the remaining picks used on O-line, QB and/or TE.

No team is two or three deep across the board. Lol. Though it would be nice. DL, ILB are needs. Big time. We have plenty of picks left to hit on both. We can wait on a project QB. RB can be addressed late. If we hit on a DL and/or ILB coupled with Norman than that should take alot of heat off of the S position. I disagree about having a ton of holes. Every team in the league rite now has atleast 5 positions on their team they could improve vastly on.

QB, WR, and TE are the only positions they are two deep. There are plenty of starting positions open now - 2 DL, 2 ILB, 2 S, C, G, RB.... as well as 2nd string spots

Id say CB is set too. Dont forget about Dunbar - he played really well last year.
I agree 100% though with your position listing as far as what we need. After this draft those holes will shrink. Than there is always the guy or two that comes out of nowhere or has a bounce back year. So when this roster is finally set I think we might see at most 3-4 positions that we need help at. Which, imo, is far from alot of holes. Its normal. Seriously look at every team in the league and you will find 3-5 starters that are sub par.
My original point was that I would rather get an impact playet where we stand now than trade back for what might amount to just acquiring bodies.
This is not the team from the last 20 years that you go " damn we are several drafts away from competing". Lol. A couple key pieces taken care of from your spot on list of deficiencies and we can be as good as anybody. What makes teams great is rarely that they have good starters and quality depth across the board. Its that their studs play well enough to make up for the holes.

Spence, Dodd, Jack, Ragland.

No thanks on Jack, he possibly needs microfracture surgery on his knee. Most guys that have that procedure done are out of sports within a few years.

Not sure about Ragland either. He has a red flag too now with the report of an enlarged aorta. Turns out that is why he slipped out of the first.

Yeah i was just throwing the big names out there. I actually totally agree with Jack. That injury scares me. If Ragland falls to us Id take him in a second. Hey dont we want our guys to play with alot of heart?

If we are looking in terms of need then imo:

1. DT
2. FS
3. RB

But McC aint bout that "need" life

Yet, somehow, we'll end up addressing our need areas before the draft is over. Another draft and yet another amazing coincidental matching of BPA to need.

In the NFL, drafting BPA is like finding Bigfoot: A lot of people believe it exists but there's no proof that anyone has actually seen it.

For JACKKKKK, I'm just so sure of it. Even if he can only play 3-4 years, they'd have a top 5 prospect, yet again, for next to nothing.

well WR is actually a need, just not immediately. pg and dj could both be gone in two years and wrs can take a while to get going. crowder contributed pretty quickly, but they also weren't asking him to be a #1 or take double coverage or do anything super drastic.

if doctsun steps up, then that's at least $15m saved against the cap, with the big money pushed out into 2020 or beyond.
