Nah. I think they want to build an offense around Minshew. They created a smokescreen about the O-line being set. Gruden wants some help (he's pushing for Dalton), Marrone said he's greedy for more weapons, and Dave would be foolish not to take Thomas/Wirfs (unless Okudah drops). 

LT > DT (unless it's Aaron Donald & that's neither Kinlaw nor Brown)

What was our biggest need going into the offseason?  What was our biggest weakness last season?   Stopping the run.   Want to improve the offense?  Get the ball back from the other team.  We cannot get the ball back from the other team if we cannot stop the run.  Why did we lose 5 games in a row in the middle of the season?  We couldn't stop the run.  Have we made enough moves so far this offseason to stop the run?  I don't think so.  That's why I think after all the mock drafts, and all the to and fro about who we will draft at 9, when it's time for our pick, we will find out everyone's original thought was correct.   Our first pick will be either Brown or Kinlaw.
