LINEBACKER!?
#54
I really like Simmons - but I would not call him a LB. He is an athletic SS with excellent ball skills and at the point of attack. He does not take blocks on very well though, but I have yet to see any of the athletic OLBs do that either. My only concern is we already have a converted safety at LB - Germaine Pratt who I see a lot of him in Simmons tape. I still think he will pan out he just needs the right system.

I really don’t think the QBs in this class are top 5 material besides Tua who has injury concerns - I don’t trust this team to do him right. Chase Young is obviously the best player this year and I would be happy to draft him but our team has glaring deficiencies - this pick would make sense if we had shed weight at the deadline.

I personally would trade back, which we will actually have the chance to do this year (in reality, the chance is not always there), and draft Andrew Thomas and Simmons in the first. There are a stupid amount of good wr coming out this year, plus intriguing QB prospects that teams tend to overvalue. Dylan Moses is also a name to watch that would match the teams needs in the late first/second we could target.

Interesting thing is the two big FA LB we looked at this year are injured for the majority of season this year - these fast guys seem to injure easily. Good OLB are necessary in today’s NFL but great OLB can be overkill or pricey. we had the chance to draft guys the past two years that would have helped alleviate our issues, we don’t necessarily need to take one in the first.
