It appears that most fans on this forum want Ruggs. I assume that's because of his speed and vertical jump. I just took a look at 7 rankings of the players in this years draft and some had Jeudy ranked 1st and some had Lamb ranked first. Ruggs was ranked last of the 3 on every site I looked at. That could be good news for those that want Ruggs if most of the teams have them ranked the same way.

Most likely, Jeudy go first, then Lamb after him. Ruggs should fall right into our lap.

The biased Sooner fan in me wants Lamb. The die hard Niner fan in me wants us to draft whoever gets us a God D@mn 'nother Lombardi.

And it fails just about as often as it works. There's zero guarantee that McGlinchey would

A. Work well at guard

Or

B. Be happy playing guard

There is also no guarantee that whoever you draft is any kind of improvement at tackle over McGlinchey.

3. why the heck should we move a guy who performs pretty well at the position he is playing?

Lamb probably has best hands, Jeudy with best routes. I think ruggs would be most dynamic in our system.

[u]Should not reach for a Wide Receiver unless the guy is a no-brainer STUD. WR is deep and has a very high bust rate. 2nd rd WR do almost as well as 1st rd. If in doubt trade down for WR or take BPA. Very risky to draft WR's high (see Pettis, Donte)

Ok I'm all about Jeudy as well with Ruggs after him for the pick number 13. Lamb is good but not sure if he's a Shany type WR. Later WR for me is Aiyuk with his explosive, long arms and game tape speed (I bet he's faster than the combine number he posted after his core injury during the Senior bowl). Mims, Jefferson and Reagor are my later picks.

I'm hoping for Jeudy or Lamb with the 13th pick. I used to have Ruggs over Lamb but after watching a lot of clips over the last few days, I fell in love with CeeDee Lamb. The dude is a baller.
