With out picking specific players I want:
1. QB of the Future
2. Starting DT
3. Back up DT
4. RB to share Load With DMac
5. WR Depth behind Dez
6. CB Depth

Anything more would be gravy.

The best QB ever
The best DT ever
The best RB ever
The 2nd best QB ever, who we would trade for tons of future picks
The best CB ever
The best SS ever

Seems pretty good to me.

Numbers. If we don't go qb @4, I'd like to amass as many day two picks as possible.

Respectfully deny... Didn't work in 2009. Kept trading back until we got crap...

This isn't a great draft in terms of top 10 - 15 talent so why not trade down a bit and pick up someone like zeke and add a 2nd and a 3rd in the process.

Respectfully approve. But quality over quantity. Is we get 2-3 starters and some backups. We are doing good.

Defense and I'm not too picky about which kind. Need upgrades at DT, DE, LB, CB, and S and I'll be happy with any of those.

A starting caliber DB, another pass rusher (DT or DE) and more speed on both sides of the ball.

If we come away from this draft with a franchise QB and every single other pick was a miss and are gone after a couple of years, the draft would have been successful.

I want playmakers. At least one on either side of the ball

What I want:

1. Carson Wentz, if he's available. I'm becoming more convinced if he can sit for a year, he's going to be a good one.
2. Ezekiel Elliott. If we don't get Wentz, we need to get a running back. We saw what happened without a consistent running game. And, no, I don't think DMC can carry the load. If it's not EE, then I can stomach Derrick Henry, though I have questions about his elusiveness.
3. A defensive tackle. Yes, we need pass rushers, but I don't expect anyone we take to benefit us all that much this year. But we need a plugger up the middle. And this is the year to draft one, though I really fear we'll do like we did last year with the running backs and leave this draft without a DT.
4. A corner. OScan is returning from an injury. We don't know if Carr is returning, Mo is still a mystery and Byron Jones is moving to free safety. We need to replenish our secondary.

So in summary, I hope we get a future franchise QB, a running back who can carry the load similar to DeMarco Murray, a corner and a defensive tackle.
