Having been pushing Joe since last season, obviously he's my #1 pick.     Then, with Patrick Queen's rapid rise to the 1st round on so many boards, Kenneth Murray was just sitting there for the taking at 33.  

If I could have one pick back, it would likely be Wanogho, at the 65 slot.  He's got the size and length, played on a strong team in a physical conference, but the knock on him is "lacking physicality and technique".  This will be the pick to really test Turner's ability to develop a Tackle into the best he can be.

Also, with so many Edge defenders climbing up the boards in the past month, Anfernee Jennings was there at the top of the 4th?  Gotta have him.  He's been well coached at Bama, and their front 7 defenders usually live up to the hype.  Took a chance on big, long bodied Saftey Jeremy Chinn.  His football IQ is really high, reads QB's eyes and body language to rack up INTs and PDs, and is also known for making good sticks in run defense.

Went to the West Coast for long and fast Isaiah Hodgins.  They say that he's got really strong hands and absorbs contact well, while in the air.  And finally, Calvin Throckmorton.  They've got him listed as a T, but let's face it, he's going to be a Guard in the NFL.  He got some good reviews from the Senior Bowl, and I like him as a late round IOL prospect.

Pretty good Ol'boy! I'm not that big on Throckmorton. I actually watched the Senior Bowl and he was pretty much abused out at tackle. So maybe guard is his calling and if that's the case, I think there are better IOL in this draft. Splitting hairs here, I know we are talking 7th rd.
