Even when we lose Speller, we're pretty deep. We'll probably have to go out and replace Bryant at some point but we're not drafting an LT.

I would sooner see us look at middle linebacker Amen Ogbongbemiga as a potential ratio breaker down the road. highly doubt we pick an o-lineman with our first...we go best player available who isn't NFL camp fodder...I almost think we may not even pick one this year until late, if at all When you have Neuf..Desjarlais..Couture..Gray..Eli and possibly Speller all in house and only at most 4 of them rostered there's no need, especially when other than Neufeld they are all 26 or under and we also have Kolankowski in the mix, who has CFL game experience and is only 28 I see us targeting a DT then DB/linebacker types and receivers Colin Unger 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Noeller 16230 Posted January 19 Author Report Share Posted January 19 I'm a big believer that you can never have enough quality NI OL, and I think Walters is a believer in that, too. I fully expect us to take OL with a pick that high... BBlink, Colin Unger, TBURGESS and 1 other 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites

But at some point we are going to start losing these guys for nothing because they will leave for opportunities elsewhere. Link to post Share on other sites
rebusrankin 6282 Posted January 20 Report Share Posted January 20 I think BPA this year given our OL situation. Also don't see us taking a FB in round 2. Noeller and JCon 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
M.O.A.B. 2969 Posted January 20 Report Share Posted January 20 I think it's best to do a future pick this draft. A player that will sign with NFL and might stay there for a bit (kinda like Gray). We still have our 2020 picks to figure out if they belong (although no OL). We don't have glaring needs, maybe few ST'ers especially when Briggs, Miles, Exume & Rush will not re-sgin.

Doesnt mean he has to be a guy whose a high pick though. Due to the glutt of ol talent we've let go some pretty good developmental OL guys in the previous few years. I think that continues, but I dont think a high pick OL is likely at all. Bigblue204 1 Link to post Share on other sites
17to85 15619 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 Honestly I could see DL being an area they target with a high pick. Bigblue204 and coach17 2 Link to post Share on other sites
JCon 11278 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 I could still see them taking an OL. Although, I hope not. Argument being that you will lose them to injury, retirement, free agency, etc. and it's best to always be developing the next one(s). Maybe Walters picks an NFL bound player with the hopes that they shake loose? Link to post Share on other sites
Noeller 16230 Posted January 21 Author Report Share Posted January 21 another thing to keep in mind is that we still haven't seen last year's picks in a camp yet. There's going to be so many bodies this year, I wonder if they go with futures picks, if for no other reason than we've got too many people to properly evaluate as it is and don't want to add to it...

BBlink 1567 Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 I trust our Canadian scouting (though it would have been much more difficult this year). Positional needs likely won't factor into the decision unless its an offensive lineman. After that it's picking BPA with some consideration of NFL opportunities.

People seem to forget that you can find Olinemen outside the first round. Teams will have a chance at a ratio breaking MLB and couple CBs, this year. Link to post Share on other sites
