I think they'll trade out.

 

[WhatJustHappened]

IMHO, it's DT or Edge.
Depends on how the draft goes.
OL would be next.

 

[scott99]

I think it’s either edge or OT. That being said, hopefully they stay faithful to THEIR board. If a certain player is the #1 player still left on their board, and an edge or OT they have highly rated isn’t on their board until day 2, they should take the top player on their board regardless of the position.

Also, history tells us, the draft truly is all about luck. There have been so many 1st round busts, and 4th or 5th round studs, so you can find starters everywhere in the draft. For instance, historically, we’ve been lucky with edge rushers and Olinemen in rounds 3 on down. Hell, we’ve won super bowls with UDFA Olinemen. So it’s not a MUST that we land an edge or OT at 31.

 

[FreeTedWilliams]

Unless someone extraordinary drops to 31, I think they flip it to whoever wants to draft Simpson and get him with a 5th year option.

 

[Pape]

thought OT, want OT

think DT/NG

 

[DarMan]

I think they will try to trade down a few spots, but whether they are able to or not, i think the pick will be Malachi Lawrence

would be a good pick for 31

 

[Pape]

I think they'll trade out.

this is a very real possibility... especially if its into the top of the second

 

[Dec54]

OL or trade out. But I want them to get a WR. then perhaps we won;t be wasting 1st round draft picks on AJ

 

[upstater1]

OT if they're there. If Lomu, Iheanchor or Miller are all gone, then they're screwed. Unless someone drops.

 

[Raccoonsuit]

As a tv viewer it'll stink if they trade down cause their pick is so late. That Ras IR dowling draft ending up with that situation and then we ended up with ras!

Its gotta be right tackle or DE. I can't imagine a belichickian pick out of this front office in the 1st round.

RT, DE, trade is my likely order

 

[Ochmed Jones]

If one of Iheanchor, McDonald or the pass rusher from ucf is there!
If they are all off the board, trade down with Arizona so they can take Simpson

 

[Sect140]

OL would be next.

What he said.

 

[ViperGTS]

They are gonna trade out IF there is an enticing player some other team wants. And RLKAG is the right answer.

 

[Keyser Söze]

Lawrence at 31

 

[PatsFan2]

FTR: that WR vote was not me I voted for Edge.

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

If we trade out into r2 I may actually prefer a 27 pick just to recoup some capital that we’re losing next year for AJB.

 

[Pape]

thats brutal when it happens

Edge is definitely not a must in the first, but what Edge rushers have we had luck with rd 3 and down?
All our best Dlineman, be that edge or DT have come from the first rd. Barmore is the exception and he dropped due to character/motivation issues as he was known to take plays off.
Chandler Jones; Wilfork, Warren, McGinest, Seymour.....
I'm not saying you can't find good players rd 3 and down because you can, but I'm not sure what guys your talking about us having luck with from rd 3 and down. Maybe they are just escaping my memory.
