Some of the candidates, most will be long gone:

RB-Robinson
WR-JSN
TE-Kincaid/Mayer
T-Paris
G-Wright*
C-Schmitz
Edge-Anderson
DT-Carter
LB-Sanders
CB-Weatherspoon
S-Branch
I know some of our fans wouldn’t be happy but if we ended up with Branch I would be.

His tape is borderline bullet proof IMO. I’d take him over anyone you have bolded.

Avila might be #1 OC...

I'm a big fan of Branch, would dislike the pick at all. He can play anywhere in the secondary.

Yea, he’s the Parsons like chess piece for the secondarys

Instincts are absolutely off the charts.

Wright wont last to the 20s. Last IOL were being snapped up in the high teens.
Definitely in this class as there is much elite talent, especially at the receiver position.

I don't dislike Schmitz. I just think Avila is better.
How do you see Avilia as a run blocker? When I watch him, he comes off the snap quickly, but don't see him at much push. He seems to play too high and forget about his feet.

I think he missed like 2 tackles in his college career. Both safety/corner are full of unrestricted fa's after the season.

The film I saw showed a "below average" run blocker in my eyes. It was weird how much difference there was between his pass & run blocking.

I prefer OCT over him. While not perfect, he is a mauler and don't believe I saw anyone overpower him. I like a player with natural power. We can work on technique \ understanding.

Don't get me wrong, Avilia's issues can be developed, but he is more of a good pass blocker at this stage. I thought McGovern's best asset last yr was also his pass protection. I want a guard who will get a push in the run game. Really want to see Tyler inside this yr and add a player like Mafi to develop.
