Philly's track record of drafting WR is not good

[punch it in]

I think Smith is going to be an absolute stud. Injuries can derail any career, and yes he is on the lighter side but he is an absolute gem of a route runner like Matty said and has great hands. He is going to be a handful. We probably need to address our db’s tonight but I want the best LT available with our first pick.

It isn’t but that is more bad luck than anything and has nothing to do with Smith.

Which is Tyreke Hill's size.

I am not happy he's in Philly. With Smith there and Toney AND Golladay in NJ, we may want to consider taking the best DB available.

Well so what to do in the 2d? We should try to move up and grab either Moehrig or Jenkins our 2d and a 3rd should be able to get us there.

I say we worry about our offense instead of other teams. We need a tackle bad. Would love to land a tackle and a db that can both start day one.

NFL Rd2 mock has us taking Marshall. Holland and Cosmi going at 53 and 54. I'd consider that LT is a bigger need than another WR at this point, and if not, an upgrade a S will help round out the D; we can then draft O the rest of the way if needs be.

And I agree with trading up for Moehrig if he's still on the board and the price is right. But they're projecting the Falcons taking him as they need a S, so if we can't do a deal with the Jags or Jets I agree he'll be gone.
