The original post has all the bells and whistles.
Shoot , if we got lucky enough to go with this, i would do it in a heartbeat. You got the CB answered, same with ZWR, then later got the DE and FS and CB.
I went with Landry , OBO, Nowuso ...which is a triple dip on pass rush, and if you add in Attaochou, you are talking about a potential 4 man superb/severe/ overwhelming pass rush...which i really liked. That was why i had no corner in top 6 picks in that we had that truly overpowering pass rush with Landry/Osowuso/OBO/ ATTA. I kind of let that last Corner slide in top 6 to get a massive all hands on board passrush. Also as you know, 2 OGs (one a OG/C) to guarantee protection for JG. With Dorian O'Daniel that gave us 3 new LBs. I don't feel too bad about picking up a couple corners in the next 4 picks and UDFA. I did miss out on all the great CBS, but with a 4 man jailbreak passrush, 3 LBs , all new, and QB protection, i like mine as final. After 6 picks i peter out on what's out there, so won't do that. Obviously i would next go CB/WR/RB and then end it. But for top 6 picks, i like my initial offering. I also like your first offered list, and your reviewed one. BAsically i focused on passrush (4 included ATTA), QB protection, and hot shot LBs.
Still feel like some wag once JG got here who said, "what, you want another wR so JG can throw for 375 yds/game instead of his current 300 yds?" Obviously that RZ WR would be a big piece, and a RB in UDFA is fine. I really like what we have at present...but hey, the more the merrier even if it is for TC and PS. Feel the same about WRs too. I think RB and WR high picks are for next yr. This yr it was LB, passrush, CB, OG. You managed to get in the ZWR plus a pair of CBs....vs my two OGs for protection, 3 LBs , and 4 passrush ERs (incl ATTA and landry). So either way i will be happy, but still. like my top 6 . If we came even close to either of these it would make me happy.
My concern? Landry going long before we sit down . Landry going before Chubb? Doubtful, but i do see him getting snagged before we get our chance. That would make me really disappointed. Then OBO, nowuso, and Davenport to add to ATTA, would be my counter. But that would really be a big disappointment. Which just goes to show, one guy could make my draft a lot less than i had hoped for. man i hope we get Landry. Until recently didn't realize just how big a piece he is in this draft. But whatever we do, we look to be making huge headway in filling in our holes. Passing on two early CBs was tough to do but with a potential passrush of ATTA, Landry, OBO, and Nowuso ....i could justify it and still feel good.
Still and all, anything we have put up here would be reason to feel we really made huge progress. For me tho, anything other than Landry would be huge downside. Again, really well done NC, just slightly different way of skinning the cat. I feel pretty sure your list is very close to where we end up.
