I also don't think we will, or necessarily should, go WR with an early pick...I just think Ruggs is going to be special and would very likely be BAP in the late teens. This is perhaps the best WR class ever and I think he's the one that would fit our WR corps like a glove.

Chark didn't have a great day but he's had great days. There isn't much else on the field that defenses have to worry about so Chark gets most of the attention. And Westbrook didn't have hands problems until this season... so perhaps he can break out of that funk. Honestly we were singing these guys' praises earlier this year... I think a lot of it is end of the season crap where guys are tired, worn down, playing through some injury stuff.

James O was really developing into a solid TE2 imo. IF Oliver can be healthy and effective, I'd be OK with our TEs for now. Although, late in this draft we could probably snag a more traditional 'blocking' type TE.

I think what we need at WR is deep threat speed. I think we could make a play for Anderson in FA (cost depending) and save our draft picks. But I could see us using a 2nd or 3rd on WR if it lines up right. 

A lot of people want a lot of OL picks... but I could see just 1 being made honestly. Norwell likely stays, he hasn't been as bad as people think and his contract is substantial. I could see us drafting a C and moving Linder to RG and keeping both tackles where they are, or perhaps drafting a LT if one slides to a good spot and moving Robinson inside and keeping Linder at C, who hasn't been great but also isn't bad.
It's fortunate we have rookie deals at both tackles, or we'd have a lot of money tied up in a not so good OL. Here's hoping Taylor develops.
