Think there's any chance we take an OTTO with our first pick?

 

I'm leaning more and more this way, the more I think about it. Beasley never really dropped on my board, such as it is, in my mind, but other players have come into consideration on it. I think moving to a LB spot will be a learning curve for him, and when I read "...needs to crank up competitive nature in order to reach his potential
." it makes me a little worried, but I think that it may be a way that the team can bolster the LB and DL corps with one player.

 

 

So I went to the Fanspeak simulator with the above idea in mind. What follows is my draft:

 

<p style="margin-left:40px;">3: R1P3 - OLB VIC BEASLEY - CLEMSON


<p style="margin-left:40px;">36: R2P4 - DE OWAMAGBE ODIGHIZUWA - UCLA


<p style="margin-left:40px;">67: R3P3 - RB JAY AJAYI - BOISE STATE


<p style="margin-left:40px;">100: R4P4 - OT DARYL WILLIAMS - OKLAHOMA


<p style="margin-left:40px;">131: R5P3 - DE DAVIS TULL – OT CHATTANOOGA


<p style="margin-left:40px;">164: R6P4 - CB BYRON JONES - CONNECTICUT


<p style="margin-left:40px;">195: R7P3 - TE BLAKE BELL - OKLAHOMA


<p style="margin-left:40px;"> 

My impressions from this haul is that I made the LB and DL positions better, specifically in the area of pass rusher in the forms of Beasley and Owa. I got a quality rotation RB that can do most anything on a football field with Ajayi, I added depth and competition at Right Tackle, even if I didn't get a starter. And at the very least I got three Special Teams starters with Tull, Jones, and Bell.

 

Thoughts? Especially with how it relates to Beasley?
