I'd rather they trade down with a team looking at a QB and draft offense.
But if it's Bosa or Williams I'd rather they take Bosa if I'm talking strictly on who I'd rather face. Of course I'd rather they take Williams cuz Bosa makes us a much better team.
But they're a better team with Williams than with Bosa IMO. Pass rush wasn't their issue. Williams gives them a big presence inside to go with Chandler Jones on the outside. They could also then address the other edge with their later picks as there will still be pretty good players available even if they're not Bosa level. Unlike us they have a stud edge rusher already so they can grab a guy like Montez Sweat in the 2nd who with Chandler Jones and Quinnen Williams on the same line would get a ton of easy matchups to take advantage of. All while QW would help their run D which was worst in the league last year.

Genus49 summed it up perfect.
Which is why I believe aside a trade down from either of us these two guys are the first two selected and doesn't matter who they pick first. We take the other guy.

We only take the other guy if it's bosa
We won't take the other if its not bosa UNLESS they have been able to sign a significant edge presence in free agency.

I'd rather them take Williams. Bosa is the much better pick for them. When you have the top pick you're looking at the next 10 seasons not just today. Barring injuries Bosa will be killing fools. Playing to stop the run is a strategy for yesterday. The top 4 teams with the worse yards per carry are all playoff teams.
If I was them I'm grabbing Bosa, ensuring I got an elite pass rush for the next 10-15 years.
