I honestly feel that since this is such a deep draft, it would be foolish not to trade down and grab as many picks as we can. I'm big on safties this year again, with that said I felt Kearse and Killebrew are too similar. Adolphus is my consolation prize if Nassib and Johnson are gone. Butler is a beast in the middle, but feel RJ Reader is not that bad of a replacement, why I got both I don't know, I don't usually do that. I also think BJ Goodson is a not very poor mans Reggie Ragland, just my 2 cents. I think Burbridge is a steal late in the draft! I like P. Barber late in the draft because I think we need a thumper for short/goal line yardage, as Blue simply proved too often he wasn't capable. Jaylon Smith in the 4th round was a no brainer to me.

I have to admit that I feel like Kaufusi and Nassib are the same type of players. I love Bronson more, but see Nassib being drafted higher. I have this problem with many players. I soured on Killebrew and Kearse after the 40 yard dash was run at the Combine. Yet, Killebrew came back on my radar after his pro day 3-Cone and Shuttle times. So Brew is back on my board. I like Vannett more than Henry and Hooper, but they are ranked higher due to the production in the passing game. Then there's Sandland and Breunacker who are impressive, but small school guys who may be later in the draft not to mention Jerrell Adams as a pass catcher. I like Kenneth Dixon more than Henry or Booker or Collins or Howard, but wonder if he lasts until the 3rd round. I love Maliek Collins and Vernon Hargraves, but they are ranked behind Chris Jones and Vernon Butler. I think Sterling Shepard is awesome and Malcolm Mitchell is a poor man's version who can be selected later. I liked Blake Martinez and Nick Vigil, but wonder if the Texans take a ILB. Plenty of conundrums to sort through.
Josh Doctson is the best WR in this draft. I'm worried about Reader's commitment to football. Adolphus Washington scares me as a bust that played well on a loaded defensive squad. I love Jaylon Smith as a person and a player, but don't know enough about his injury. I liked Burbridge but wonder if he translates to the NFL.
