Well THAT is the million dollar question. Here's how I see it.
1. It's a simple fact that high end DT talent is as rare a commodity as franchise QB's. You can't pass one up given the opportunity.
2. On the other hand, solid run stuffers are another story, and are can be found throughout the draft most years. So the question becomes is there going to be a DT worthy of the pick at #32, and if not what kind of pick would make you take a leap to have a 5th year with the player.
3. The safest choice would probably be an offensive lineman that you could project as an upgrade at LG. That being said, history has shown us that we can likely find a starter in the 2nd, 3rd of even 4th rounds of the draft, so any OL pick that high would necessitate being not only an immediate starter but a an obvious upgrade
4. The real strength of our draft is going to come between picks 96 and 105. Will there be any" hidden gems" at that part of the draft. Who are the "Dominique Easley's of this draft, because when it comes down to it, the ONLY real "steals" that are going to happen between 1-95 are going to be injury, character concerns, or players with Jamie Collins syndrome, a small school genetic freak.
5. I am comfortable that we will find our OL depth, whether it's early or later. However for the rest, I find it hard to think we can do more than just average unless we are willing to roll the dice with more than a player or 2. Other wise I don't see us adding any impact players to the starting roster this year.
6. So beyond Marcus Peters, who are the injury/character guys who could possibly fall to us in the first 4 rounds that would make the congregation go "wow". This is the year I think we should take some shots. We have been drafting pretty well for numbers and depth the past 4 or 5 years, so I think we could afford to swing and miss this year. I think the draftnik community can do a real service to the less able like myself by creating a list of high risk reward picks that we can follow this month
