Well if we are now big players in the Williams deal, I would leave out Josh Jones and Ezra Cleveland. All depends on if we make a move there or not. However, we could take either of those guys and move them to guard. Other tackles that we could move would be:

Josh Jones
Ezra Cleveland
Robert Hunt
Lucas Niang
Prince Tego Wanagho
Ben Bartch
Shaadiq Charles

Still a ton of good CBs out that I would take:

Kristian Fulton
Jaylon Johnson
Trevon Diggs
Amik Robertson
Bryce Hall
Cameron Dantzler

A single guard has yet to go. I mentioned a few weeks ago we will have the pick of the litter in these rounds at guard. Some I'd like to target:

Lloyd Cushenberry
Jonah Jackson
John Simpson
Tyre Phillips
Damien Lewis
Shane Lemieux
Kevin Dotson
Hakeem Adeniji
Netane Muti
Cameron Clarke
Ben Bredeson
Logan Stenberg
John Runyan

Tons of talent at DT:

Ross Blacklock
James Lynch
Jordan Elliott
Raekwon Davis
Justin Madubuike
Neville Gallimore
Davon Hamilton
Khalil Davis

Some at DE:
Yetur Gross-Matos
AJ Epenesa
Marlon Davidson
Julian Okwara

Then you have your wild cards like Winfield Jr., Xavier McKinney. Plus a ton of mid-round WR talent. I'd be happy with just about anyone on this above list. I'm shocked how many options are out there. There were some mega reaches tonight. Terrell was a reach at 16, Arnette was a reach at 19, Love to GB I didnt understand given he struggled in the Mountain West, Jordan Brooks at 27 was a reach and Noah Igbinoghene was a reach at 30

As crazy as it sounds, if someone like Jaylon Johnson or Kristian Fulton was to fall, I'd pull the trigger on another CB.

There are 2 full more rounds of solid contributors in this draft. I think tomorrow will see the Vikings using some of their late picks to trade up and target particular players in the 2nd or 3rd rounds.

We basically lost 30 points on that trade,not good value.we should have been on the plus.

Given what was available and what went, what did we really lose? Wilson if anyone? We gained a 4th and 5th, I'd still make that trade any day

Gladney worries me so much. He’s undersized, character concerns, knee problems. His metrics are even bad, look at this 3 cone:

https://www.mockdraftable.com/player/jeff-gladney

He was also 1st team big 12, led the conference in pass breakups, played on a torn meniscus and ran at the combine with one, plays way bigger than his size, tougher than nails, etc.

There are positives and negatives no matter who you look at. Guys knocked Mattison last year because he was "slow". In turn, it meant nothing.

As for Jefferson, doesnt surprise me we tried to move up. Jefferson going early heated up the last two days and WRs started going fairly quick. Again, Jefferson was #16 on Jeremiahs overall draft board and would've been a guaranteed went to someone like Oakland if those big 3 werent in this draft. Those guys were so highly touted that it caused someone as good as Jefferson to fall.

Did we? If Vikings get Hurts, I will feel better after Vikings did not get Lamb

I hope Vikings do not draft Fulton, he tampered with his drug test and has character concerns

Sweet! You know I am a Sooners fan so getting Jalen would be sweet! I have not been impressed with Fromm but if Jalen is gone, I will be okay with Fromm, he can not be any worse than awful Mannion
