What would a Singletary-run draft look like?

Spiller @ 13 then the best OT available @ 17

OT and Taylor Mays

Really? Spiller? Singletary's #1 issue is OT, and will go OT if the value is there at 13. His #2 issue was the secondary getting burned.

I can see that; It all depends on whether OT is worth it at 13, and whether he thinks he can 'coach up' Taylor Mays.

If Sing can 'coach him up', Mays could be the next Ronnie Lott.

I can also see Sing going with A. Davis and Iupati in the first round.

That would give him the line that he wants.

That makes sense. Starting to feel 2 OLs are an option with Singletary...

I think we'll be drafting more for need than we would have otherwise. Singletary might not survive a bad season, and so he's going to make sure that he gives himself the best chance to win now possible. So I expect him to try and fix the things he think kept us out of the playoffs last year. My guess is that means OL, KR/PR, and secondary.

I don't think this is entirely bad. I think we've hurt ourselves the last few years by being so against drafting for need. Last off season it was obvious that pass rush and pass protection were our greatest weaknesses. But we didn't do anything to fix them in the draft. And our O Line sucked and opposing QBs were able to throw TDs when they needed them to beat us. So I think addressing our weaknesses is long over due.

I just hope this doesn't mean we draft Taylor Mays because there's no one to tell Singletary not to.

Pick 13 = LB
Pick 17 = LB
Pick 49 = LB
Pick 79 = LB
etc.
etc.

I wouldn't say Pass Rush was a weakness at all as we were tied for 3rd in the league in sacks. The two biggest weaknesses were O-Line (both pass and run blocking) and our pass defense.

And Singletary has expressed a lot of interest in Mays, still hope we don't draft him tho lol

Personally I would love if we draft 2 OL with our first two picks, it wouldn't be "sexy" but it would be a hell of a start for a dominating line.
