Definitely need to address DT in free agency with Hill being the only serviceable DT on the roster. Assuming they sign a quality DT and maybe a mid level vet RT I could possible see them going WR at 18 if there’s a big tackle run. A guy like Brain Thomas Jr. could fill the Boyd role this year help you win short term and long term soften the Higgins loss next year. Not saying go WR just know how the OT run goes and the DT class isn’t deep Thomas might be BPA at 18.
Brian Thomas Jr is 6'4" and pretty much the same build as Tee and he is faster than both Tee and Boyd and should be there at 18.
As much as I would like a DT, Newton is coming off a injury and Murphy most likely will be gone. Taking Sweat at 18 seems a bit of a reach
at this time. Fuaga and Latham are more heavy handed, powerful physical Tackles but both could be gone for all we know too. Have to keep
our minds open to a WR like Brian Thomas Jr.

I like that thought a lot TLL. Bring back Chido so we have some experience besides CTB, we are really young in the Secondary already.

For damn sure we need a RB in this Draft, at least 1. Love Tyrone Tracy, Braelon Allen, Trey Benson, Kimani Vidal etc.
There are a lot of good RB's in this Draft as you know Pulses and it would be nice to get younger and cheaper at the position and maybe
even find a special one.
