Harry, how much will Drake command in the open market? With a big cap space available isn't worthy to keep all 3 (assuming Drake continues to impress more)
Chopper’s right at $4-6mil. Hard to front load. If they didn’t have so many holes & so much dead money they could keep 3.

We are one of the best rushing teams with a full backfield, and I have no issue with paying three quality backs with the high tempo of this offense so they can stay productive and fresh. I still have some faith in Hakeem Butler for what's worth and we can draft another WR... saving our cap to keep what works well in this offense

If we draft a WR it shouldn’t be any earlier than the 4th round we need to wisely build the trenches of this team with the draft.

We have no WRs that can separate consistently.

If we go CeeDee in the 1st round, then trenches the next 3, I have no problem with that.

Latest mock has lamb going 12th and we currently own the 14th pick. I’d rather have Niang or Epenesa if available.

I won’t argue with Epenesa.

Niang is a reach. Hell, due to his injury & how good this OT class is, we can get him in the 2nd round.

He is a top 10 pick currently. CBS mock from 2 days ago.

CBS mocks had DK Metcalf, Drew Lock, & Jawaan Taylor last year for a good portion of the year. CBS mocks are the last source you should go to. I learned my lesson with them.

Personally I would just move David Johnson to wide receiver. You can't tell me he isn't one of our top 3.

I think if CeeDee is available, we will pull the trigger. However, if not, we are looking at potentially Tee Higgins in round 2 or a Sage Surratt / Isaiah Hodgins in 3/4.

Right now, I am expecting Lamb to be gone and Wirffs to be gone. I am good if we went Javon Kinlaw (DL South Carolina) in round 1, Brycen Hopkins (TE Purdue) in round 2, and Solomon Kindley (OG Georgia) in round 3. Niang (RT) will be interesting. Have to see where he is with his injury.
