do we pick the 18th BP on most boards....OT Mike McGlinchey, ??  or do we just go BPA....& that could be the 10th BP on the board DE Clelin Ferrell from Clemson....
or one of the 3 DT who may be there...#11 Christian Wilkins whos also from Clemson....or #9 Vita Vea from Washington...or #12 Da'Ron Payne from Alabama...

or perhaps a LB Roquan Smith who's ranked at 16th on the big board....or maybe even trade down a few slots for OC Price....he's ranked around 24....

imo the #1 question is who's our OT's going to be next yr....I think right now Fisher won't be one of them....How about CED....?  i'd prefer they both sit....so if I were guessing now i'd say we'll pick the OT McGlinchey....
but it all comes down to how confident they are about our O-line....who's going to be playing LT & RT...
so many options.... 
I love the NFL draft....
& next year w/Ross being hopefully healthy/ready....be like a free 1st rd pick for us...

Lots of options. If Derwin James falls he's the obvious pick. Yes we need oline but go oline rest of way. This year's draft guards that would normally go in the second will go in the late 4thbearly 5th. That's how insanely deep the interior oline is. James helps us out on very position in DEFENSE besides dt. If he's gone then id go raquan smith. If he's gone, then it's not popular but courtland Sutton. If they're all gone trade down a few spots and grab price.

I thought why....? when McGlinchey is ranked as the #1 OT in this draft....
I just checked out the OT's & on Walterfootball.com he's listed as the 10th best OT....
said one AFC North team who needs an OT said he grades out as a late 3rd rder or early 4th rder...

but I would love to get OC Billy Price in rd #2.....but I doubt he'll still be there for us....

Mcglichey is a horrible ot. He's a day 3 talent imo. Better suited as a guard, but his body style can't play inside. That Williams article was written before he came back healthy and proved everyone wrong. I want Williams but as a guard. Think he'd be a many time all pro at guard. He'd still be a good tackle.
