You are not wrong there. But I'd say there are 4 WRs I'd be confident could replace Tee in Y1. 3 will be long gone by #18: Harrison, Nabers,,& Odunze. Thomas is a coin flip at #18. After that gets sketchier.

Plus, if you pick Thonas at #18, what do you do at RT? 

I'd much rather retain the guys we know are elite/near elite (Reader/Higgins). We are gonna still have north of $35 mil in functional cap space. Try to land an elite DT with $20 mil of that (Madubuike, Wilkins). 

Pencil in picking the best available RT at #18. 

We then have $15 mil in cap and our Day 2 & Day 3 picks to fill in more areas of need. WR3, TE, CB, P, S + OL depth.

Try to restructure some guys to open up even more space. If so, anotherxwignificant FA signing becomes real.
