Isaiah Simmons 60.5(sub package player, not starting)
Kenneth Murray 50.9
Patrick Queen 29.9
Jordyn Brooks 49.0

And the '19 and '20  grades for '19 1st rounders...

Devin White 51.9/43.4
Devin Bush 62.9/59.7

It doesn't make much sense to invest a 1st round pick in a position group where you can get similar performance from journeyman FA's.  Josh Bynes has a 54 grade by comparison.  Plus, we've drafted 4 stack backers over the last two drafts.

Lbs:  Simmons Arz (all PFF rookie),   White (all rookie team), J. Allen Jacksonville, (all rookie team) R. Smith Bears (all rookie teams)  and Floyd (pro bowl, all pro, )

WRs: Davis (Titans)   Williams Chargers   Ross Bengals, White Bears   Cooper Dallas (4 pro bowls)

It is pretty clear as a group the LBS in top 10 have out performed WRs in the Top 10.....Idk why you trying to argue otherwise

^There’s the post I was thinking of btw.
