We need a variety of positions but I do think most see them as DE, CB, and WR being the most critical.

We will resign some of our own free agents. Guys I would take a chance on not currently on the team would be Josh Gordon WR and Dominique Easley DT. Both should be very reasonable contracts. I would bring back Carr and Church and McFadden.

Draft would be BPA that fits our schemes and who are athletic and want to play football.

Also believe Romo will be traded and to Arizona especially if Palmer retires. Could see Arizona also sign T. Williams and Ron Leary.

28. T.J. Watt OLB/DE Wisconsin - rising up the boards, at 6'5" 240 may be a bit small at DE but could easily add 20+ pounds and be the guy. He can bend the corner, has good speed, great work ethic, team leader and a never quit guy. Put him at RDE in the rotation and Marinelli has a force that teams have to counter.

45. Cooper Kupp WR Eastern Washington - would make an excellent #2 guy, great hands, knows how to separate, precise routes, football smart, team captain, great work ethic. He makes the catch and YAC are very good.

60. Tanoh Kpassagnon DE Villanova - great height and length, a physical guy who works hard to get better everyday, rising up the board and may not be available in the 3rd round. Upside is very good, plays alot like JPP and JJ Watt with constant hustle.

77. Rasul Douglas CB West Virginia - good sized corner, long corner, knows how game is player, doesn't drop the ball, probably plays in the nickel and dime but should start in year 2.

92. Obi Melifonwu S Connecticut - long, tall safety who has moved up the boards, see him as a 3rd round guy, can cover better than any tall safety seen recently, good hip movement, really good hands and good closing speed.

4th round. Julie'n Davenport OT Bucknell - elite arm length, huge hands, at 6'7" and 310 but a well built body, need better foot work, should develop into a very good RT

6th round. Eddie Vanderdoes DT UCLA - good rotational DT but ability to be much, much more.

7th round. Wayne Gallman RB Clemson - has the ability to be much more but has to show he wants it

7th round. Ben Boulware LB Clemson - has greatest instincts seen, team captain, a bit small for a LB but also a great ST player
 
I don't think a few of those guys will go where you have them slotted but I would absolutely love that draft.

Ben Boulware would be fun to root for here. Plus, I think he'd me a true special team grinder unlike waste-of-time Andrew Gachkar.
 
I'd take that but as someone said, some guys seem to have fallen too far in your draft.

Not a huge fan of Watt but given the other picks, it's a draft that I would like.
 
Vanderdoes wont be there. Pauline says he is rising.
 
Why is he a 7th round pick if he has the best instincts ever

His size, probably going to weigh in at 230 and 5'10"/5'11", not the fastest in the world but his instincts and film study always put him in the right spot.
 
Watt isn't a RDE at all. He got sacks in the Big 10 with motor and strength. Not a quick twitch guy to beat LT's with speed at all. I see him more as a Connor Barwin solid all around 3-4 SOLB. He could probably function as a 4-3 DE, but he's not a pass rush threat worthy of a 1st round pick imo.

I like all of the players but I think Kpassagnon, Douglas, and Melifonwu all go a round earlier as you acknowledged
 
I would absolutely love this. A draft full of football players, not project/athletes.

Yuck another uconn safety.
 
This would be a nice draft. But as You acknowledged slightly unrealistic with certain players falling.
