    Tet McMillan criminally low. Of the receivers in this class, he's got the highest floor and quite possibly the highest ceiling. If he was viewed as WR4, all I'd say is I hope he falls to our area and we are smart enough to go grab him.

    Never even considered him thinking he'd be the first or second gone. Travis playing receiver?

    Seemed like a 4.8 during games.

    I am really intrigued with what the Texans will do with the offensive line. If we are trying to emulate the Rams offensive line/scheme then we need to add some big offensive lineman. The Rams offensive line was one of the heaviest in the NFL last year. The offense may be ideal for Kenyan Green and Juice Scruggs and they may get shots at starting again next year. Do both Tunsil and Howard stay on board or does one of them get traded? Does Howard get moved inside to Guard? I don't think that the new scheme see a fit with Mason, Broeker and Kendrick Green and they will be playing elsewhere next year.

    If we are drafting a Guard this year I like Donovan Jackson and Armand Membou in the 1st round. In the 2nd - 3rd round Jonah Savaiinaea and Anthony Belton. In the 4th round I would take Dylan Fairchild.

    I maybe the 1st to say this on this board, but I don't like Booker in the 1st round. He maybe the strongest lineman in the draft, but he's too much of a plodder and seems to lack coordination.

    Yeah I think that list screams, “Look I’m different.” I do like Golden as a dart throw of the second or third tier WR in this class, but he’s obviously below Tet.

    Hunter will likely be a CB/KR in the NFL. I seriously doubt he’s a receiver and they won’t get cute like Colorado did with him and let him play too many positions or snaps.

    Good post

    I like Booker and it looks like he can get to the 2nd level in the run game. Love Jackson and Belton. Did you see Zabel? Best center in the draft. IMHO

    Well, here's my latest mock where we get a stud WR and replace our entire IOL.

    I doubt we draft two Gs and a C. Tytus will be LG moving forward and Fisher will be at RT. LG is the only spot I see us making at change at. FA will dictate whether we draft one early or not.

    Tez likely won’t be on our radar either with the way Tank experiment went. If we draft WR it’ll be someone big and can block.

    I hope we draft a receiver that can separate because we already have some receivers on the roster that can't. Blocking is great but they gotta be able to get open so that CJ can get rid of the ball.

    I will add that Blake really struggled and so we don't know if he can play well in 25'. I prefer keeping Howard at tackle and bringing in at least TWO quality IOL.

    Banking on Kenyon Green for the 4th year in a row would be a mistake IMO.
