Imagine if someone like Derwin James or minkah Fitzpatrick winds up sliding down? I feel like if the jags put one of those guys at safety with the defense we already have it would be ridiculous. 

I'm assuming we go OL, TE, or QB though....but the uncertainty of this draft is exciting.

I'll disagree there.  If they like a QB, they should take him first overall.  Waiting until 4 could potentially give them the 4th best QB and I HIGHLY doubt they have 4 guys rated equally.  You take your guy there and hope your evaluations paid off.  Taking Guice, Michel, Chubb, etc. later is perfectly fine.  At 4 they can get Chubb or a DB or something that should help their defense a lot.

Generally I'd agree but if I'm Cleveland in that circumstance and I have to have Mayfield, I take saquon and then I use the extra draft ammo they have to secure a move up from 4 to 2...(or vice versa and go Mayfield 1, saquon 2)

And the reason I say generally I'd agree because in this circumstance the disparity between the QBs is seemingly so slim, and the browns have the 1 and 4 picks. We almost never see a team in that position.
