Wouldn't be shocked if we go totally off the radar and grab a DL to solidify the front

I get what you're saying. But other than Oliver who could you say would justify that high of a pic. Williams is going to be gone by 5 almost assuredly. So then the only other guy is Oliver and he seems to me more like a three technique so maybe he isn't scheme specific you no Aaron Donald did great with Wade Phillips last year.

i don't think that's off the radar. . . we need another DL-- somebody to play that akiem hicks role. . . wonder if we can dig up some video of Q williams with a gas mask bong. . .

Ed Oliver bringing pressure up the middle with Von and Chubb on the outside? That wouldn't even be fair. If teams are silly enough to let him drop to 10, I think Elway turns the pick in within a minute. Much like Chubb last year.

We no longer have defensive minds that cannot adjust to players strengths. Fangio will find the best way to use Oliver.

I think that if you're not tied to scheme than Ed Oliver almost makes too much sense. And honestly as much as I like Williams I think Oliver will be the best tackle it comes out of this draft. Because that guy honestly is athletic enough that he could line up and drop into coverage and literally be a threat defending passes. He's just that dominant.

I was with coach on scheme fit for Oliver, but with Fangio that's a valid point and he even said as much. He didn't even watch film on our guys because he wants to see things for himself and decide what's best for the players. we need that type of coaching as it usually breeds the best chance at success with players. This staff seems to favor versatility. I think Oliver would be in play at 10 as a result.

Rumors out there Atlanta wants Oliver bad and has interest in trading with Detroit....

I agree that Fangio could easily find a way to use Oliver...and I agree with other comments that he could and probably will end up being the best DL coming out of this draft. His Pro Day numbers would have been good for an edge rusher, linebacker or tight end...let alone a 285 pound DT. That said, I think he just pushed himself back up the board and likely wont be there at 10.

I agree and that would lead credence to Atlanta wanting to trade up with Detroit.

If Kingsbury wasn't so smitten with Murray, they should nab him #1 overall. My fear is that the ******* Raiders will have him land in their lap at #4. Mayock has to be in love with the numbers Oliver put up

Coach rubber gun to you head. Which three players will surprisingly be there at 10?

The same rubber gun from yesterday?

I don't know if I'd expect any surprises. Unless teams decide to trade up to get QB's, which would push a few players down. That said, I expect Elway to trade back if the opportunity arises anyway.
