Early conversations indicate the team is prioritizing cornerback, offensive tackle, interior defensive line in the first round.
Pass catcher still an outlier.
High interest in finding a new punter in some capacity.
Nice, Dejean, Arnold, McKinstry, Mitchell are possibilities if they are around at 18 and would be fine with any of them. Good cheap Corners are
never a bad idea in the Draft.
Fuaga is still my favorite fit for us at RT with his explosive powerful hands and mauling style. I am liking Latham a bit more as we get closer to
the Combine and if he has a good one he actually might go much earlier than our pick. Bama has had some OL busts lately though, so there is
that. I just like Latham's physicality same with Fuaga for us.
Murphy will probably be gone but Newton at 3-tech might be a possibility in the first and I would like this along with adding Leonard Williams
at NT in Free Agency. As far as Punter I would bring in Tommy Townsend from the Chiefs and we might actually end up with the better Punter
than Araiza and he would have been dissed by the Chiefs after being an All Pro for them.
