Would rather have Ford and Bosa rushing from the edge and Buck and Thomas rushing from the inside.

Maybe, IF Bosa can stay healthy ... IF Solomon can improve ... IF QW doesn't become an all-pro = a lot of IF's
Bosa is a short-term better fit, but QW is more of a long-term sure thing

Why would Bosa be a short-term fit? He's only 21.

Bosa would come right in and be a great fit right away = like I said "a better short-term fit". But Bosa is already almost maxxed out so he wouldn't improve much, has lower upside potential, and is more likely to be injured with time than QW.
QW on the other hand isn't a perfect short-term fit but in the longer term would likely be the better player.

Semantics. Bosa is also considered an elite edge prospect so if his "max" is double digit sacks every year I'll buy in a heartbeat.

Yeah, I can live with double digit sacks for the next 10 years.

Tell me about it. If we didn't have Buckner and 6 other guys who are decent inside I'd understand taking QW over Bosa, but we have a stud in Buck and a few other guys who are good starters.

That's hardly the case.

You don't pass on elite for decent. If you think Bosa is elite (I do) then pick him. However if they think Quinnen is the only elite player you don't pass because there are other decent players in his position.
Let's increase the IDL on roster to 7, and leave edge rushers at 2. Makes sense.

Yeah I wish too...we might have 1 or 2 guys who could be dominant starters (not quite there yet).

Then there's one unknown in Kentavius Street and the rest are decent to solid rotational guys...hardly a few good starters tho.

We go to the Super Bowl if we pick Quinnen Williams. I'm buying Super Bowl tickets if we pick him.

Best edge class since 2011, let's take our 4th DT in 5 yrs.

How does that matter when only 1 of them has shown to be a consistently good player?

We only have 1 draft pick in the draft?

Not just good very good...One played good ball this yr and the other one played well once he actually played inside over the last 6 games. It's not even remotely close to a need and DT was imo our best positional group on either side of the ball.

All the top end edge rushers are gonna be gone in the top 20 picks, after that the talent drop off is massive.

If Q wasn't in this draft you could argue we didn't even need to spend a pick on DT. Can't say that about edge.

Didn't know we were a DT away from going to the super bowl.

QW = Aaron Donald. Buckner = Suh.

You don't pass on Aaron Donald. You can go to the Super Bowl with that.
