Just a few thoughts on what I've read so far. I'll only make strong statements on the guys I've personally looked at in depth.


- if we drafted Randy Gregory he would assuredly be a LEO. I say this for two reasons. A, you don't take a guy that is extremely suited for your pass rush position and put him as a run stopper. B, my comparison for him is a less twitchy Khalil Mack, who the coaches said last year would be a LEO in our scheme.


- in my personal opinion, Beasley has no fit in our scheme, as well as a general lack of strength. His position in the league is a true 34 OLB but he needs to get stronger if he has any shot of sticking around.


- Funchess is a good option if you have a good blocker ahead of him on the depth chart. If our (supposedly talented) TE coach can make him a better blocker,and he adds strength, I absolutely believe he would be a solid pick.


Free Agency-


Torrey Smith, WR Baltimore- Gives us a leader with championship experience who can stretch the field. If Blackmon returns we would have a top five receiving corps of young talent.


Bryan Bulaga RT Green Bay- I think he goes to free agency unless the packers are willing to match the treasure trove he'd get from us. Most important off-season acquisition IMO.


Jason Pierre-Paul, LEO, Giants- this is a move that guarantees we can take Williams in the draft if he's there. JPP is young, talented, and has had success.


DaNorris Searcy, FS, Buffalo- agree with Stigma here. He will be cheaper than the bigger names without much drop in talent. Also Marrone can give us his opinion.


Draft-


1. Leonard Williams- best player in the draft. Put him at 3t then shift to 5t when Marks returns. Our front would then have JPP, Marks, Miller, and Williams. That's dominant.


2. Todd Gurley, RB Georgia- I've just recently hopped aboard the Gurley train. I think he has talent in every aspect of the game. He will be a great help to Blake and will be the star of our new focus on the run.


3. Clive Walford, TE, Miami- our staff loved him at the Senior Bowl and he seems like one of those guys who can be dependable from day one.


4. Kurtis Drummond, S, Michigan State- I think he goes higher when the draft comes around. He can play either spot, has size, speed, and experience.
