My early thoughts on this draft class: playmakers

[tm1119]

QB- If it's not Hackenberg(PSU), Goff(CAL), Lynch(Memphis), or Wentz(NDSU)(not in order) I don't want a QB. Don't be dumb and waste a pick inside the the 1st 5 rounds if it's not 1 of these 4 just for the sake of taking 1.

RB- Henry(bama) or Zeke(OSU) would be nice but unlikely they make it out of the 1st round. That's ok because there are still 2 guys I love and a few others I like a good amount. Devontae Booker(Utah) and CJ Prosise(ND) are the other 2 guys I love who likely can be had in the 2nd which may be the best way to go in my opinion. After the top 4 there are guys like Alex Collins(Ark) and Kenneth Dixon(LaTech) are also very good backs and look to be good late 2nd/3rd round type of guys. So take 1 of 6 guys and I'd be happy. Hopefully it happens this time.

WR- As usual there is a ton of WR talent and this would be a good year for us to take advantage and get another outside playmaker. Doctson (TCU), Treadwell(Ole Miss), Boyd(Pitt), Robinson(Florida), and Thomas (Oh St) are the cream of the crop and all have #1 type skillsets. Sterling Shephard(Oklahoma) Cayleb Jones(AZ), and Leonte Carroo(Rut) are a few guys I like that I don't expect to go crazy high. I could probably list another 5-6 guys, point being is that there are a ton of talented WR's likely to come out and we need to take advantage somewhere in the 1st 3 rounds.

TE- Would it really be such a crazy idea to take a TE this year? I don't think so. I also don't see many that are overly intriguing though. Henry(Ark) and Butt(Mich) both look pretty good a present a good value at some point.

I like Prosise alot, but I like him if Michael blows up. For 2016 I dont think Prosise is ready to be a featured back in the NFL. Only one season at the position and he is a bit raw. However he has rare receiving skill at the position and can cut his teeth as a COP, 3rd down back and make alot of noise. And after we let Michael walk he takes over.

I will say this, spending only 1 year at a position and being a Heisman candidate at a big school is impressive. Shows he isna very quick learner

I think most of all it proves that he's not only an elite athlete but an elite football player. He's special with the ball in his hands and I'll take my chances on a kid like that regardless of experience.

One of the things I like about his is he can line up at any WR spot of the field. Even if he isnt your bell cow he is a guy defense will have to account for.

I think he could be a Michael Westbrook clone. Or a Marshal Faulk.
