It HAS To Be RB Fournette or LB Foster

[Whatever]

Minter didn't have a ton of suitors this year, and it's a stretch to say his market value will explode next year.  That's like saying we don't need a pass rusher because Wil Clarke is going to have a 10 sack year.

LB isn't a premium position in a 4-3, and we play nickel more than a base 4-3.  We've got two well paid starters, two 3rd rounders, and a well paid backup, and we're supposed to throw a Top 10 pick at the position, too?

What in the world makes Foster this can't miss prospect?  He's undersized, his instincts are terrible, has concussion and shoulder issues, and had a melt down at the combine after numerous poor interviews.  On top of it, he has 7 sacks, no picks, no forced fumbles, and no fumble recoveries in college.  He doesn't make enough big plays to justify a Top 10 pick, bottom line.
