    This is where I'm at with this team.

    “I’m just different!”
    “ . . . Picture a cup in the middle of the sea”

    2nd round— Jack Sawyer OLB
    3rd round— Will Shipley RB
    4th round— Ricky Pearsall WR
    5th round— Ladd McKonkey WR
    6th round— Cash Jones RB
    7th round— Carson Steele RB

    Fix the O-line, obviously. How we do it is up for debate. I'd go after at least one or two FA and use a first or second rounder on one. See what sticks. I'd keep Paradis and probably Stephenson, maybe move him to G as Jaded has suggested. Not sure on Okung at his 2017 salary.

    Bring in a real OC. Dennison seems to do nothing and Kubiak is stretched too thin. If the no huddle, up tempo offense we saw early last week was because of Knapp, I wouldn't even mind him being promoted. At least he showed that he can adapt to our strengths occasionally

    I haven't seen a lot of people say this, but upgrading our run defense is a high priority. We can't be a great defense if we're 29th against the run. Whether this means a real NT upgrade or an early ILB pick or both, we need it. Our strength as a defense is pass rushers and corners. We need to make teams play into that trap.

    Get a real three down TE who can block and catch. Some good ones in the draft, I hear. We need a third threat in the passing game and it might as well be a TE instead of trying to make something out of our no name WR.

    Have to try again on the offensive line. Maybe this time it's time to go get a first-round tackle. Also have to do something at quarterback, as neither look like long term solutions at this point.

    MO, imo, this is a bad year to be so hardup for first round T's.

    They've got to try something. Maybe they catch a gem late in the first round because the tackles slip. Where's that kid from Alabama who got in legal trouble expected to go?

    From what I'm reading he's of of the few who makes 1st round sense, but in this draft that means he'll probably go even higher than he should.

    Still way early but we usually have an idea by now.

    Ryan Ramcyk is making 1st rnd noise but I think he just injured himself. Plus, he's from Wisconsin, they have a lot of bust OP lately.

    Garett Boles is a sleeper right now, he moves like a TE, but he's from Utah. Ugh.

    If we make the play offs - I give us a good chance, but I doubt we make it.

    Something like that. Can you have a pencil-thin mustache?

    It's relative to your hairline.
