I have a feeling the Bengals will take someone like Guyton while the Ravens a few spots behind us will take someone like Robinson

It's hard to prioritize a 3 tech like Newton over an OT.  As great as Geno Atkins was, he only had three seasons with double digit sacks, and he's a HoF type player.  The reason is, if you're a great interior pass rusher, you will face constant double teams in pass rush situations.  

Robinson is tough because they have Trey and Hubbard, plus just spent a 1st on Murphy.  

De Jean is possible, but do they give up on Turner that quick?

Of the T prospects, Latham and Fuaga are more pro ready, while Guyton and Mims have more upside.  Do you suffer through some short term pains to have a guy who's potentially the better player in a couple of years?  

Not to mention, Brian Thomas Jr. and Iron Coleman have to be in this conversation, too.
