Good point about the speed. If that is the case, how would this work:
Round 3 Kevin White CB TCU instead of Tomlinson
Round 4 Phillip Dorsett WR Miami instead of Gunter
And
Round 5 Ali Marpet OG Hobart instead of Williams
I disagree with you about Davis and Tomlinson being available one round later. They both dominated last week against top competition and that will be fresh on GM's minds come draft day.
Those changes might work...maybe even go CB in the 2nd round and target a DT in the 4th or later? If Gore walks, maybe go after a speedy RB in 3rd? It all starts with the 1st pick Parker anyway. There are some intriguing WR prospects that can be had in rds 2-4, so going WR first kind of forces your hand the rest of the way.
Is Parker worth it? Too early to tell?
Why CB so early? They drafted 4 last season and will look to resign Cox or Cully...your basically drafting someone that wouldn't be a starter and would be fighting Johnson for a backup spot....
Good point. Then again, Brock can't stay healthy, Cox and Culliver may sign elsewhere, and we don't know if Acker or Reaser are any good. Drafting a CB will definitely hinge on free agency.
