Round 1, 17: OT Amarius Mims

I believe Mims is Baalke's guy at 17. He loves the potential. It's risky with him having limited play time. He will take the risk. He won't give out his hand with removing Cam Robinson before the draft. Likely Harrison moves to LT and Mims starts at RT.

Round 2, 48: DT Leonard Taylor III

Very quick off the snap. High motor. If there's one thing about the University of Miami, is that they can produce some very solid DLs. 

Round 3, 96: WR Devontez Walker

Your outside WR. Needs to expand his route tree. Solid hands and will contribute early.

Round 4, 114: OG Christian Mahogany

Love his run blocking. He drops to the 4th round because he needs to improve his pass blocking. Hopefully Scherff's future replacement.

Round 4, 116: CB Kalen King

Great ball awareness and quickness. Will fit nice into the NB spot.

Round 5, 153: CB Decamerion Richardson

Raw talent who is worth a flyer. He will benefit from being a depth guy or practice squad

Round 6, 212: C Andrew Raym

Very aggressive. Needs a lot of work on his fundamentals. I see him learning quick from Morse and pushing Fortner off the roster.

Round 7, 236: DE Rondell Bothroyd


Depth signing who can move around the line a bit. Likely hitting the practice squad. 



Although I prefer several other options at 17, I'm trying to see through Trent Baalke here. Unless there's a can't miss drop to 17, I'm sold that Mims goes here. Get the big guys in the first two rounds. Protect the QB and get to the QB.
