Would be thrilled if Aidan Hutchinson's name is called with our pick next year. Especially after today's performance. Justin Smith is a favorable comparison but I swear I see Jared Allen 2.0 out of him at times. He's just a full-on, full-tilt, all-out effort kind of guy and it shows in the passing game and running game. Treylon Burks is my favorite receiver in this class. Unfortunately I don't see them landing him because he's not valued high enough to go that early but he's not low enough in value to slip out of RD1 on opening night.
They would have trade up to get him. Which they could probably pull off but I don't see Baalke doing that. They could probably reach a little bit for Jusytn Ross instead on the 2nd night in RD2. It's a bit of a reach. BUT.... He did miss all of 2020 and he's just been okay this year on a new look Clemson team. If he tests well at the combine there's a good chance he's there for the taking in RD2. I think they have to consider taking him early. When you look at what Chase has done with Burrow it's hard not to want to take that kid there. Just depends on what happens. He could be there in RD3 maybe.
He's got the size and speed you need on the outside. If they decide to bring back Chark you're starting to look a little bit better. I would still keep going after another WR though from that class just to keep adding depth. Ideally, this is how my draft picks would go if I was the general manager. And I wouldn't lose any sleep over these choices.

You say Burks can't make it to the 2nd but I think London goes before Burks. Hutchinson and London would be a dream 1st 2 picks.
Draft Dameon Pierce in the mid-to-later rounds
Could be James Robinson 2.0
