He will not be the first CB taken and I hope we don't take him and it seems unlikely we would.Not sure I would agree with your assessments at all so I would say virtually everyone of the guys I mentioned outside of a CB would be that guy you are talking about.
Haskins won't get to 11. Dillard seems to be strictly a LT. Does he sit behind Glenn for a year or two?
I could get on board with Wilkins but isn't he a 3 tech? Would he play next to Geno or for Geno?
Seems like we're looking for a guy to play right away and fill an existing hole and not take over later for someone we already have unless the pick is a transcendent talent. Are any of the guys you mentioned one of those?
TE's get hurt too much? Can you please provide me the data showing that TEs are injured more often than any other position? I doubt you can so yes the TJ Hockenson selection stands. He is a rare talent and a hell of a weapon.
Dillard is strictly a LT? Why exactly is that? You do realize now more than ever you need to have a more athletic RT. You have several speed rushers like Von Miller coming on that side these days so the days of simply having a bulldozer RT are over. So nope do not see him strictly as a LT. Could he play LT? Absolutely. Could he get exposure to the pro game on the right side? Absolutely.
At 6'3" 315 I am not sure that you can slate him as only a 3 technique. Not to mention that you are in the Nickel in the NFL probably 70% of the time now. Clemson played him all along the line and I could see him doing the same thing at this level. However, spelling Geno or playing downs beside Geno either way are fine. Have no problem with liberally rotating interior line players to keep them fresh and explosive.
