I'd also look at taking a safety prospect and there are some that should be available mid to late rounds

I agree re the need for receivers and d-linemen, and the lack of need for LBs. But I strongly disagree re o-line. Among our NAT o-linemen, only Nicastro is truly guaranteed to be an above-average starter. Hunter is a big question mark based on how last season went, and the rest -- Doxtater, Shepley, Dankwah, Coakes, Bosse and Vandal -- are unproven. Bosse looked like a bust, and Vandal regressed big-time, last season. IMO if there are potential o-line starters available, drafting them would be smarter than taking long shots at diamonds in the rough at those other positions.

I highly doubt there are any O-lineman - at all - this draft, who would grade out better right out of college ball than any of Shepley, Doxtater, Dankwah and especially Hunter; maybe a pure OG type (like Crabins' 3 time all-Canadian A. Diouf) could challenge for starting time right away, but that is iffy perhaps. There's no guarantee either that a draftable O-lineman this year is even going to be able to pass Vandal or Coakes or Bosse as depth / back-up types. So unless the scouts are damn certain they are getting a stud / soon starter, there is pretty well zero need now to go with more O-lineman; can always do that next year's draft anyhow. Receiver, D-line, safety, RB = could easily, IMO, eat up the first 6 picks, or all of them.

Referring to Amos as a "Double Turncoat", I wondered if the Late Great Gorilla Monsoon wrote that article.

We have players going from one team to the other and running their mouths. The East should be more competitive this year and that will only add fuel to the fire.

Looking forward to it.
