I'll go with a guard. Simply because if history is any indication, I'm guessing our first one won't be all that exciting

In this case, I certainly can agree with your thinking. However, I am going to go against the (conservative) grain  and predict that it will be in a position that we could use an immediate impact/depth player...and those 2 positions would obviously either be OLB, or WR. Again, I am not 'expecting' it, I am expecting something a lot, as you say--'less exciting.'
I will combine my thinking and yours, and go with a lesser known, lower profile player ( a la Matt Roth) at either OLB or WR. This would add what I perceive to be one of the final pieces in the puzzle--at a position that did not really get addressed in the draft.
