Williams is the only DT worthy of #20, and he should be gone to Miami or some other 3-4 team. Plus he is a hold up 2 blocker type. I like him, but I don't think the team is looking for him.
Earl Thomas is worth our pick, but the scouts are telling McClain he will be gone by 20. If he drops grab him.
Mathews fits our system, has a history of rising to the top of the RB list, has played in a zone system, as break away speed. He is worthy of the #20 pick.
We don't need a DE or 3-4 OLB, and that is the main guys ranked around our pick. And to trade down is hard plus you run the risk of losing the guy you really want.
I love Weatherspoon, but the Texans will not draft him in the 1st. But what a LB core we would have.
I'm not an Price or Odrick fan, they just doesn't light my fire. Rather take Houston or Alualu in the 2nd.
Now are you wanting to take Taylor Mays if he drops? He was awful in coverage during one on one drills a the senior bowl. Looked better in the game.
Wilson is a slight reach at 20, but i would not complain if they drafted him.
