Pre Draft Thread 2.0

Pure BPA. What player sitting there is a probowler or all-pro or HOFer? Over a 10 year window, you will be good if every 1st round pick is a solid contributor. Reaching for need kills you, but you must also factor need in a bit.

Assuming no QB falls, I hope we take the best pure pass blocking LT. Not the one that can run block, but is okay in pass protection, the absolute best pure pass blocking LT with highest ceiling for pure pass blocking. That is a HUGE long-term hole to fill. Barring that, again assuming no QB there, I would still love to get a true #1 WR and have him under contract 5 years, total package with size, speed, quickness, etc.

What we should not do is reach for TE, MLB, FS. However, there are some highly rated LBs that may be sitting there, and I think this is where FO is leaning. A good GM would certainly take franchise LT over a LB unless edge rusher, but we have edge covered.
