It would be nice for us to get a majority of our needs at the beginning of a class instead of the end of it. Grabbing Kalil in the first and Harris in the second would be great, but I think we could actually pick Harris up in the fourth or fifth round if needed because of his "off-the-field" issues. It would be nice to get a big receiver, someone like Jones (North Carolina), Criner (Arizona) or Streeter (Miami). As much as I love Jones, and I really would love him on the team.. Streeter's combination of size and speed reminds me of Randy Moss. Of no way shape or form am I comparing him to Randy though, but Streeter's 6'5", 215lbs and runs a 4.3 40 time. He's a burner and will get physical if needed.
This is how I would love our draft to go in some way shape or form.
1. Matt Kalil OT
2. Cody Glenn OG
(projected as a late 1st, early 2nd)3. Tommy Streeter WR
4. Kheeston Randall DT
(projected as a late 3rd, early 4th)5. Cliff Harris CB (projected as a third day pick because of "off-the-field" issues)
6. Stephen Good G
(projected as a late 5th, early 6th because of an injury)7. Ben Bojicic C
(projceted between the 5th and 7th)7. Matt Merletti SS
(projected as a 6th-to-undrafted due to being injury prone)The reason my draft looks like that is because we need to solidify that offensive line. Charlie Johnson just didn't cut it at right tackle, Hutchinson has said he's going to retire once his contract is up, you never know which Herrera is going to show up and I can't stand Sullivan. The pick of Tommy Streeter is to get us our big time outside receiver to help opening up the middle for Percy some more, Randall is to push the other defensive tackles on the roster and possibly take over once Williams retires. The Merletti pick is just because that's a solid value pick in the 7th round and could push our other safeties.
