If that were the case we would have come out of this draft with multiple corners. There was not a selection in this draft that they reached for or that does not bring value to the roster. Not sure what you are considering when you are stating an off the ball LB but for a guy that projects as a strong side LB Wells has shown pretty well in coverage. Well if Wilson is one of those returning from an injury then be thrilled because he was money playing injured!

I am also still trying to figure out your criteria for 3T. What "body type" are you talking about?

Well for the past 3 years they have seemed to follow the same draft approach. 3 years ago we drafted 3 LB's. Last year we drafted 3 DE's. Then this year while we only drafted 2 safeties we also sacrificed a pick in the process. The 2 UDFA linebackers were used as on the ball linebackers. Hicks has dropped back some seems like he would need a lot of development if he even makes the team. There were better linebackers with more coverage experience against better competition available in the 7th Rd. As far as the DT I would say I'm talking about someone more in the Geno Atkins or Larry O. mold about 300 lbs. I know you mentioned Aaron Donald. Well Donald is 3 inches shorter and that can account for 20 lbs or more in mass and he's much more stout. Again I don't dislike Carter but he is a tweener between a big DE or a small DT.
