Last year was offense. Matt got the players he wanted. This year is defense. New DC gets what he needs to make his system work. Plenty of ILBs who can cover, in the mid rounds, imo.

They'll grab a WR too. Davante is 28. Need a blue chip guy.

New longsnapper wouldn't shock me in the late rounds. Maybe even a punter.

Melifonwu is at least a 2nd rounder to me. Guy's a beast that made another highly touted future pro in Dyami Brown quit.

Anyway, depending on how the board falls, if Bateman, Toney, Farley, Moehrig, or Newsome aren't there at 29, I trade back.

On paper, his brother had everything! Amazing size, speed, agility, all the testing numbers, but the film was clearly worse and he was getting by on just being naturally bigger and more athletic, and not actually learning the smaller details of the game.

This Melifonwu isn't as big, but still average size, and great testing numbers. But results weren't as good as you would expect (at least according to PFF)

Melifonwu has rare physical tools for the position at 6-foot-2, 205 pounds with a 41.5-inch vertical and 11-2 broad jump. In two years as a starter, however, Melifonwu has earned coverage grades of just 79.3 and 74.1, as he’s not quite as physical as his athletic testing might suggest.

I also don't know how to feel about WR Toney... he's shockingly athletic and no one can turn on a dime like him, while he has great speed, and while the ball is in his hands he's among the best as he's great punt returner.

But he only had one good year... and his development when the ball isn't in his hands is years before where it should be... and some have argued he might of spend more time with his rap careers (he has two albums and a couple singles and actually been more successful with that than football until last year).

WR Toney could be an absolute stud! Or he could be like another Florida WR, Percy Harvin, great returner has some good years... but never got to 1,000 yards in a single season. Just saying it could go either way... a lot depends on how much he cares about football. Though Percy never had this great offensive system nor Aaron Rodgers playing QB.

I could probably stick this comment into an existing post but Zero gives extra points for starting new threads. 😉 (not really)

What do you expect Gute to do in the first round?

Personally I think he will trade back and pick up more selections. Then he will put together a package to move up into the top 10-12 picks of the second round.
