Furthermore, I agree with you that by eschewing T and WR, we have put Minshew in a tenuous situation.  We stilll have picks left to address these positions, but we left a lot of talent to other teams, talent that could have been of benefit to Minshew and the team.

But as it stands now, I don't see Chaisson at that level of talent.  I desperately want to be proven wrong.

I was satisfied with the Chaisson pick at 20.  I was not satisfied with the Henderson pick at 9.  But I'm warming up to it.  I understand why they picked both.  Holes in the defense are more numerous than the ones on offense.  I've been banging the drum for at least 3 or 4 years that we need to fix the O-line.  We have a line coach who can't coach and we have players who can never get to Pro Bowl caliber.  Competent line play covers a multitude of sins.  But with good talent on the board, we opted for defense...again.  Can we find a starter on the OL on day two?  Who knows.  Certainly not an immediate effective starter.  And I don't trust this staff to coach up a prospect.  And the defense will never be truly good as long as Wash is DC.  Warhop and Wash are weak leaks and yet they have the loyalty of the HC.  *sigh*  Maybe they cut Warhop loose and see what Sparano, Jr. can do if it's his gig.

Round 2 pick needs to be an impact OL, if such can be found.  Or maybe we get lucky and Caldwell pulls off a trade of Ngouke for a good guard or tackle.
