58 -- Khalen Saunders DT
90 -- Chauncey Gardner-Johnson CB/S
128 -- Devin Singletary RB
136 -- Tytus Howard OT

#128 is my pet cat.....plays a lot faster than his combine numbers. Also agree we could take a CB lot higher than fans expect.

Gustin is a 4th round pick at best to me as a true standup LB. Way too many injuries and would be better around 240 to me. Think he has talent, but afraid he overtrains.
