It would be hard to get me off Fuaga or Latham at #18 if available. Bowers & Murphy are the two who make it a tough decision.

Mims vs Bowers vs Murphy is probably a dead heat for me. Trading down & still getting one would be the ideal scenario. 

I'd take Bowers or Murphy easily over Guyton. Probably Arnold/Mitchell. If it is Guyton vs Thomas vs DeJean vs JPJ. That is where I try and trade back. 

Worst case (realistic) draft: 
QB (3): Williams, Daniels, Maye 
WR (4): Harrison, Nabers, Odunze, Thomas 
OT (5): Alt, Fashanu, Fuaga, Latham, Mims 
TE (1): Bowers
DT (1): Murphy 
CB (2): Arnold, Mitchell  
DE (1): Turner (top 17 lock)
------------- 

JPJ, DeJaen, Newton, Fautanu, & Guyton would be the next tier for me. Maybe Wiggins.That screams trade back.

But seeing guys at spots of lesser need for us go earlier (QB, DE) would help things along: McCarthy, Verse, Latu, etc. 

I'd be REALLY happy with any of the non-QBs/DEs on the above list of 17.

McCarthy has been moving up the board since combines etc.. will be shocked he does not go in top 17 and i have a feeling Penix might go also.. alot of teams in need of QBs
