1 - Billy Price, OC.  If our O-line weren't so inept, I might have taken Ridley or Evans, who I think represent good value here.  Wynn or Hernandez were considered, but with Ragnow off the board and no C on the roster my hand was forced.  I think Price is a better fit for what we want to do than Daniels.
2 - Lorenzo Carter, LB.  Solid value here.  I think he has a chance to be a very good player.  Would have considered Justin Reid, who I like (slightly)  better than Bates.
3a - Rasheem Green, DE.  I have no problem with the Hubbard pick, but I would have taken Green, who I think has more upside.
3b - Arden Key, Edge.  Actually would have taken Jessie Bates here if he were available (and I think he might have been).  But if not, I'll take a chance on a potential top-5 pass rushing head case.
4 - Anthony Averett, CB.  I like him better than the CBs we picked, and I'm not a fan of Walton.  Nor do I think we need a poor man's Gio.
5a - Tyrell Crosby, OG.  More O-line help.  Would have considered Troy Fumagalli here.
5b - Tim Settle, DT.  I like the Brown pick, but think Settle has more upside.
5c - Luke Falk, QB.  Would have preferred to grab John Kelly or Duke Ejiofor here, but how 'bout a backup QB who can actually play in the NFL?
7a - Holton Hill, CB.  Can't believe this guy wasn't drafted.
7b - Dimitri Flowers, FB/TE.  Love receiving FBs.  This guy would be a significant upgrade over Hewitt (both blocking and receiving).
7c - Eddy Pineiro, K.  Let's give Randy some competition.

Biggest criticism of my draft is that we didn't address the OT or S position (unless Bates were available at 3b), both of which are significant needs.  At S, I'd be looking to bring either Vaccaro, Reid, or Boston in on a 1-yr. deal.  At RT, I'm stuck with the pu-pu platter of Fisher/Hart/Og.

Didn't like the Walton pick initially but he could be really good and a great ST'er for us. Wanted a RT but who knows
who would beat out what we currently have. Didn't think we needed two Corners but who knows how good these guys
are either and Phillips has already been making plays.

I don't think i would change anything.

So take out Jefferson and insert Brown or Richardson.  I got a feeling about both of them.  And take out Walton and put Griffin.

But it will be fun to see how wrong I was...

All those OT's had questions.

Of course i wanted Shaquem Griffin as you well know.
