Trade back into the early 2nd and pick up and extra early 3rd...

2nd- Nate Orchard DE, Utah
2nd- David Johnson RB, N. Illinois
3rd- Kwon Alexander LB, LSU
3rd- Marcus Hardison DT, AZ State
4th- Mitch Morse OG/OT, Mizzu
5th- JaCorey Shepherd CB, Kansas
7th- Deontay Greenberry WR, Houston
7th- Trevor Perdula P, Baylor

Sign a youngish starting SDE and add in Orchard and Hardison and the d line is set for a long time in my opinion. Orchard adds to the WDE rotation as an edge rusher and Hardison is a 3 tech behind Crawford. Basically, these 2 will end our pass rush woes.

David Johnson is a unique RB who possess speed and power but also hands like a WR. Offensive weapon with or without Murray and could grow into the feature back role.

Kwon Alexander is a young, highly athletic LB who tackles everything near him. Can play early and his potential is through the roof.

Morse is the working man's o lineman who also happens to be a pretty darn good athlete, he had a very good combine. Played OG before moving to LT. Only question is short arms but I think he may be able to play RT, if not he is definitely a good fit inside.

Shepherd is an underrated CB imo. 32 passes defended and 5 ints the past 2 years. Good enough size and his athleticism looks good on tape. Locates the ball and plays it in the air very well.

Greenberry is a former top recruit who never really lived up to the hype. Still intriguing enough size and athleticism to gamble on though

Some competition at P wouldn't hurt...Plus something about a 6'4 225 P sounds fun to me.

I like it alot.

I'm not a big Nate Orchard fan, but I'd be ok with him in a trade back if he's the best pass rusher left on the board and he's either the BPA or pretty close to it.

I know nothing about the punter, but we need real competition there.

I like it quite a bit.

Two of your picks are the same as a mock I did elsewhere. Mine with free agents:

Sign: LDE Jabaal Sheard, DT Stephen Paea or Jared Odrick, RB Mark Ingram (if Murray isn't back)

Re-sign LB's Carter & Durant

My scenario was trading from late 1st (#27) to the earlier 2nd for at least a 4th & 6th...if not a 3rd. I used the 4th & 6th for the mock:

2nd: DE Nate Orchard
2nd: CB Steven Nelson
3rd: RB Jeremy Langford (Langford & David Johnson are 2 of my favorites...be curious to see how the RB's shakeout)
4th: DT Grady Jarrett
4th: G/T Mitch Morse (the later round Cam Erving...having started at center, RT & LT)
5th: FS Adrian Amos
6th: WR Antwan Goodley
7th: LB best available

In this scenario:

LDE: Sheard, Mincey, Gardner/Spencer (if brought back on very reasonable deal)
RDE: Lawrence, Orchard, Mincey

SAM: Carter
MIKE: Hitchens
WILL: Lee
Top reserve = Durant...Wilber is still around & they brought back Cam Lawrence

Love your first four picks.
