Boom or Bust Draft

It doesn't matter which side Williams plays on to me. Glenn is a better tackle than Hart on any side.

I don't particularly see Sample being better than a healthy Eifert, but since when could Eifert stay healthy for a season?

Agreed about Glenn.  And I think it will.  The Pratt pick will probably be the least reliable.

It appears they're first choice is Glenn at guard.   And I see the logic... a little.  But anytime you can switch out Glenn for Hart you ought to do it.   He's going to have to adjust anywhere you put him.  Probably a little more difficult going from right to left than tackle to guard.   But if you want the 5 best players on the field...

Still this is the time to see what it looks like.

And from what Lap is saying, Sample already looks fine as a receiver.  So then the upgrade isn't over Eifert (who barely played last year), but A) Kroft/ Uzamah, everyone else, and; B) any tight end we had that could both block like a boss, run routes and catch.

I think the odds are that we have at least two upgrades at the least.  And I'm pretty sure between Jordan and the two running backs we're good for at least one more.

For me the odds are that we will have 4 significant upgraded positions
