When it comes to Jackson Powers-Johnson. If he's sitting there on the board at pick 17, and, your scouting department, your value board and your coaching staff has come to conclusion, that, he's on par with guys like Jason Kelce, Kevin Mawae, Alex Mack or Travis Frederick, it's an easy decision for me. You take him and you don't lose any sleep over it. You're addressing THE weakest starting point on the entire active roster with an All-Pro caliber player.

If you have any doubts or hesitations within those lines of thinking and reasoning? Next man up on the board. I think this team is [BLEEP]. Regardless of what they do in March. They're going to have to either more than likely:

A. Overdraft players in certain positions.
B. Trade up to get players in certain positions before they're nabbed.

This is the downside of being an average football team. You're not bad enough to have pick of the litter at key positions at the top of the rounds but you're also not good enough to have most of the guess work eliminated for you in the bottom half of the rounds where everything has been weeded out and it's more forgiving if you whiff on a player.
