Dline, Linebacker and WR/TE and what I have read is they both seem to be in 15 or higher range. As for mocks.. yest some mocks have them higher due to lack of #1 type WRs... others have them at low as 18 to 20. Also.. we actually have some depth at WR. Lafell is solid good hands (played hurt all year) and solid route runner.. he is going to see alot of playing time... Boyd showed promise as a rookie and will only get better and see playing time. Core came on later in the season.. What we lack is a speed guy not depth..... So if we want to test teams vertical at times.. lets look at getting Goodwin from Penn State 2/3 round. very good speed. solid WR.. best games were pressure games during bowl season. We can address more pressing need of LB or Dline or possible TE with Howard since we are thin at TE with track record of injuries with Eifert.
Well lafell is on the wrong side of 30, has never been condidered anything more than average and that fact there is no guarenteed money in the second year points to a wr. Boyd is a slot wr mainly. If u want a speed guy then davis is ur pick. Mccshay said based on tape 4.38-4.43. And my thinking is lb corp is set. Top 3 de would be gone and barnett is not that great at 9. Im on the record of loving jake butt. And demarcus walker with the next 2 picks to solve de and te. But at 9 williams or davis would increase our team production infinitely. What is aj gets hurt again? U really gonna count on lafell as our number 1? Bc im not.drafting williams or davis solves the problem. Also if all goes according to plan we wont be picking this high again for a long while, so draft aj replacement now while we are this high. Lastly reports are that we will double dip at wr and de in the first 4-5 rounds this year.
