We should get a pass rusher ... but we're the lions so we will probably draft a guard and trade up for a rb.

Trade Down first and grab as many picks as possible. Go DE DE QB, all in the first round.
 
If we got Williams or Oliver at DT I'd be happy.

If we got Bosa, Ferrell, or Allen at DE/OLB I'd be happy.

DL should be top priority, regardless.

Seems like yesterday the DL was a strength.
 
We need ANYONE who can cover someone... Our CB's suck this year, including Slay....
 
DE, S, OLB. Is love to say CB, but I don't think a rookie can step into this mess and succeed. Ideally a DE that can really rush the passer and holds up adequately against the run. Safety with speed so we aren't always 5 yards late on the open man across the middle. OLB because we need someone who can play, and because LBs can be found in later rounds easier. I'd say get a NT in the later rounds also, someone we can plug in next to Harrison on short yardage and actually hold the line.

Strangely enough, RB is probably the only thing we don't need now. Everything else is a fucking mess and a need.

I agree with you but I'd rather see them sign a CB in free agency that can step in right away. Maybe someone like Darby, Callahan, or Roby.
 
With Snacks , Ashawn and Hand thats a good nucleus , get Gary in the first and Winovich in the 2nd !! haha and what the hell , grab Bush in the 3rd

We have 2 thirds right? Bush and hill?

Gary snacks hand
Winovich davis bush kennard
Slay walker diggs hill
 
Depends on free agency really. I would love to get a top pass rusher in free agency. I doubt Lawrence and Clowney hit the market though. If either do, pounce with that 70 million in cap space. DE and free Safety in free agency (but they might roll with Walker).

Then

DE and CB in Round 1 and 2.

Find a Will LB and Right Guard (Lang cut) in Round 3 or 4.

Round 5 get another nickel CB. Agnew off the ACL cant' be relied on yet and Diggs needs to play Strong safety.

But it will of course depend on the draft board.

Bush is shooting up draft boards. Last I saw he was projected in the first
 
Current Walter Mock has us picking 7th and previously taking 2 Wolverines. They currently still have Bush going in the 3rd but to cleveland before our pick. I can easily see Bush as a early/mid 2nd round guy post combine.

Rd 1 Devin White LB LSU. Previous Pick Rashan Gary DE

Rd 2 Jerry Tillery DT/DE Notre Dame. Previous Pick Chase Winovich OLB/DE

Rd 3 Marlon Davidson DE Auburn

One of what? An overhyped qb that underperforms based on ability and cant deliver when it matters?

But the Raiders did it the right way...they can opt out in year #3 without hurting themselves too much.
