That fixes your defense. You're already set on the edge. Add Kinlaw to the middle and Simmons at ILB? Nice moves.

Move Jack outside. I know we need some help on the offensive line. We might land Becton, Adams or Tega Wanogho in RD2 to help that out a bit.

But I think we need to make the middle of the defense stronger first.

While I love Kinlaw and believe he could play NT, I don't think he'd be as effective against the run as Brown or a couple other prospects. Now if we were to sign Jordan Phillips in free agency to play NT and draft Kinlaw as a 3 technique, I'd be down with that. As for Simmons, he is long and lean and is a coverage OLB. He is 6'4" 230 lbs. That's not nearly "beefy"enough to play MLB. If we were to draft Simmons, it would be to play WLB. 

Personally, I hate Becton.  He's almost 370 lbs. and has slow feet. I see him as a RT only and I don't know if he'd even pan out there. I love Trey Adams, but I believe he may go in late round 1 and Tega Wanogo needs to add strength IMO. He is 6'7" and only 305 lbs. At that height, I'd like to see him more like 320 lbs. He is far from a finished product. He struggles to finish his blocks. 

If we can't get Derrick Brown, we must sign Jordan Phillips in free agency and I'd look to add a NT like John Penisini of Utah in that round 4-5 area. He is graded as the best run stuffer on the Nation's #1 run defense.
