Has any team ever had a draft where they didn't select at least one offensive skill player?

NO.

OL, DL, secondary.

We need a speedy return guy at either RB or WR ... someone like Bush, Parvin, Sproles, etc.

Who was going to be drafted if crabs was not available? Who was the odds on favorite. I have completely forgot. I don't regret crabs, but I think it was a tackle.

I remember hearing Oher. Don't know if its fact or not.

We can definitely use a dominant RB. If Best or Spiller is there with our second first round pick. We should definitely pull the trigger. I love Gore as much as everyone else but I don't think he'll ever be the same as the '06 Gore we fell in love with. QB is also a major need depending on how Alex looks the rest of the year.

OL, DL, S, PR (pass rusher), KR

maybe not exactly in that order but those are the teams needs, and should be the main focus this offseason.

Michael Oher

I think we need to take an OT and an OLB. If we picked a CB, Safety or another WR I wouldn't be dissatisfied though.

DL, OG can be had in second round.

Actually, I wouldn't mind stocking up on 2nd round picks. Great value normally and I just don't see this draft as having signature 1st rounders past the first 10 or so (and that may be a stretch). Of course, who knows what uderclassmen will come out.

The only skill player I would want in the 1st round is CJ Spiller.
