One draft do-over

#1

Now that we've had a few days to digest the draft class, if there was one do-over allowed what would you choose? For me, it's a no-brainer. I would have selected Will Hernandez in the first round rather than Bryan. I understand the reasoning behind this pick; he was the highest guy on their board and will likely enable them to let go of a very expensive lineman after next season. That being said, I really believe Hernandez would have made much more sense. One NFL Network analyst said he was the best run-blocker he has seen in 10 years. Even if that's an exaggeration, he would have started from day 1 and made it easier for Fournette to take over games. With the addition of Chark and Seferian-Jenkins, it will be tough for defenses to put 8 men in the box. Imagine what a healthy Fournette would have accomplished in such a scenerio!

Other than that, I thought the draft choices were solid. Bryan is the great unknown, as are many "workout warriors" who have yet to produce great results on the field. He is in a great situation with mentors such as Malik and Calais as well as solid coaching at his position. Regardless, teams aren't often in a position to make it to the Super Bowl that often and Hernandez may very well have been the best guy to put this team over the top.

Are there any other picks you question more or do you agree with my choice?
