Jeudy and Lamb both look like elite talent, and chances are one of them will be there when we pick. If other options are gone, I'd be happy with either of those two.

On the other hand, do we have too many big big needs to justify taking a WR?

I like Lamb & Higgins the most as far as 1st RD talent goes in next year's draft but I honestly feel this class is relatively deep with plenty of those rangy type guys that can go up and get it. With Chark and Conley being relatively consistent this year I don't think it's really a need to go after a WR that early.

I don't see a Calvin Johnson Jr., Larry Fitzgerald or Julio Jones type target in this year's class where you're sitting there thinking you HAVE to take this guy if he's on the board. I would be happy with Pittman Jr. out of USC on maybe day two or three. I would be excited if they landed Golden-Gandy out of Liberty or Mims out of Baylor too.

They normally either tank, have to be moved inside to OG or be moved to RT, since they lack the footwork to stay with speed rushers off the edge. I just don't see anything from Leatherwood or Wills that makes me change my mind on that. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Was thinking this yesterday on my end. Between Leatherwood and Wills and that other kid I wouldn't feel comfortable with another LT prospect out of Alabama. Not even out of RD2.

This is an extremely deep WR class. There is gonna be good receivers taken all the way into the 4th or 5th and possibly the 6th rounds of the draft. I like Gandy Golden and Pittman as well. I believe they go in the 3rd or 4th round. I also like Gabriel Davis of UCF, Chase Claypool of Notre Dame, Isaiah Hodgins of Oregon State, Tyler Johnson of Minnesota, Omar Bayless of Arkansas State and Scotty Washington of Wake Forest. All those guys should be available later in the draft.

I feel the same way about the Alabama OT's. Maybe if we needed a RT, I'd be o.k. with them, but definitely not as a LT.
