Who is in that tier that could maaaaaybe start Day 1 with Sample helping him out a LOT in 2024? I always hear about the first round expectants but know nothing of the round 2-x guys. I know it's not an ideal situation to be in, but they've sorta painted themselves into a corner here.
Good question, if the unthinkable happened and Bowers was there or they realy love Newton (even being a 3T) then yes you have to go T with the next pick. So much so that you shop your own 3rd or a little more to get back to the 1st probably for Guyton or hopefully Mims. They have the picks to make a deal. They need a future cog at OT and DT so in a Bowers/Mims scenario I'd consider another trade maybe the comp pick 3rd for another DL that can produce now. You want to draft well and even grab value at corner with the deep class, but FA really set them up where you still need to go to war with more trench pieces.
