feel free to post your gut feeling on the draft here.

I feel Jordan love will go well ahead of 17.i feel Lamb ,jeudy and Ruggs will also go ahead of us and some team will jump us to get one of them.this means one of Kinlaw,Chassion and Henderson will be there at 17.i am not sure we stay at 17 though .i think we draft a Dt in the 1st 3 RDs based on the all the video visits so far.

I feel we will panic pick.

All of the guys we love will go before 17. We panic and end up with Murray, Epenesa or a Curtis Weaver.

We seem to have more needs than usual going into this draft.

A CB will be selected either at 17, 51 or a trade down/trade up scenario.

My gut tells me we will take Kinlaw at 17 and move up for Reagor if he falls out of the 1st. If Reagor goes in the first, then we will take Pittman at 51

Kinlaw is a dream pick.

Reminds me of the Derwin James pick. The entire fan base cheered every pick he went before us hoping he’d fall a few more picks lol

We seem to have more needs than usual going into this draft.

Agree to disagree here.

We have two big needs. CB and Slot WR. This is pending Smith and Gregory are allowed to play this year.

The rest of it is depth. #2 TE etc.

Please dont remind me. I was waving the flag lol.

However, I have us going Kinlaw because there is a solid chance teams pass on him without being to check his knee. The Cowboys have shown they are willing to make that gamble

This draft has trade down written all over it. If we can’t get Kinlaw, Henderson or Chaisson it’s a disaster if they can’t trade back. You end up with Fulton or Murray at 17 you have failed miserably

teams generally move up for a Qb and pass rushers,i dont see any that will be available at 17 for teams to trade with us.

That's still two more than last year. I'm excited about the possibility and hoping Smith and and/or Gregory get reinstated quickly and get into form quickly but for me edge is still a need until one of them gets their first sack in a real game.

The the trade up could be offensive tackle if one of the four fall. Maybe Philly or Minnesota trade up earlier for WR. But the QB who draft pundits predict someone will trade up for is Love. Who knows but I really believe we will take either of the 3 receivers (Ruggs, Lamb, Jeudy), Henderson, Kinlaw, or Chaisson. If those six aren't available we will trade down.

disagree...Murray might be BPA at 17 if Henderson and Chaisson are off the board.

He would be like the Frederick pick.

People hate it, call it a reach, grade it poorly. Then a few years from now they love him
agreed.
or maybe im wrong like i was on taco...but i dont think i am.
Murray is a play-maker.

NFL.com had a good thought, put Murray at weakside linebacker. He could be the replacement for Sean Lee.

Overview
Sleek, playmaking linebacker with chiseled frame and long arms. Murray's game is predicated on speed with an ability to fly around from sideline to sideline rolling up tackles. While his twitchy burst allows him to make more plays than the average linebacker, he will overflow to ball-carriers at times. Recognition of play development and ability to take on blocks are both underdeveloped currently, but a move to weak-side linebacker would put him in position to minimize those concerns and maximize his playmaking talent. Murray has hit-or-miss qualities and is more splashy than consistent, but he's immensely talented with the ability to imprint on games on all three downs.
