1.9 - Tristan Wirfs OL - Would start him at RG, where I think he has All-Pro potential. Could also push Cam at LT.

1.20 Henry Ruggs WR - Speedy weapon you stretch the field

2 - Cam Akers RB - Gives us a two-headed monster at RB. Eventually replaces Fournette.

3 - Bryce Hall CB - Would go higher if not coming off an ACL tear. This is a Trent Baalke pick all the way.

4 - Traded to Ravens for Hayden Hurst.

5 - Benito Jones NT - Run stuffing NT that is some pass rush ability

6 - Shaq Quarterman LB - Local kid to help stop the run

6 - Jordan Fuller S - Safety depth

7 - Jessie Lemonier EDGE - Depth for behind Yan, Allen, and Smoot

I really like these moves:

1. Free agent inside linebacker- any one of your three.

2.Ruggs with pick 20, but I suspect he'll be gone. Wait til round 3 for a receiver who will be great value (too many to name).

3. Bryce Hall - Great value. Would start before too long.

4. Trading 4th for Hurst. A no-brainer in my book. Hometown boy becomes a big target for Minshew.

5. Wirfs - Can play either guard or tackle. Big upgrade from Cann and can fill in for Robinson if he gets injured. That being said, I'd probably take Derrick Brown
              ahead of him and I have a feeling he will fall to the Jags due to a combination of his relatively poor combine and Simmons' great one.

Moves I disagree with:

1. Franchising Yann- Just pay the guy. Everyone gets overpaid in free agency and he is one of the best pass-rushers in the league.

2. Cam Akers in round 2- Too high for a running back. Wait til the mid-late rounds to find a guy and pick up Chris Thompson to be the receiving back. Gruden can
                                    make this happen.

3. Re-sign Dareus- I would love Dareus to come back, but he'll get a much better offer from another team. 

All that being said, I'd love it if your scenerio came true. The team would be much improved from 2018-19.

I'm totally in agreement with this. His less than stellar combine along with Simmons' freakish numbers make it at least 50-50 that Brown will fall. The other guy who is a possibility to drop is Okudah since it's likely 3 quarterbacks will be taken among the 1st 8 picks. If Brown isn't available, Okudah would be a very nice consolation prize.
