    If Spence had stayed outta trouble and finished his career at OSU he may have been the one being talked up as the #1 pick in the draft instead of Bosa.

    Man, Spence is flying up the boards....If the Titans take a pass rusher first, naturally, it would be Bosa...( I still believe they are taking Tunsil). That said, would taking Bosa be the best choice? It appears Spence is just as athletic etc...Maybe they trade back and still take Spence?

    Which is why we should trade back with our first (and get Ramsey) and then use some of that ammo to move back into round 1 to grab Spence ahead of a team that would take a gamlbe on him.

    My problem is, he might be a top 15 pick and we aren't going that far up for him unless we get a king's ransom to trade back from #1.

    Consider this. Most people also don't think too highly of a Nickel CB but they play about 50% of the snaps and frequently more than a 'starting' MLB. So how do you define a starter?

    If we take Spence, he will get starter level snaps, provide serious insurance against Rak or Morgan getting hurt, keep the pass rush intensity high allowing both players to get some more rest and, can get on the field at the same time in some personel and blitz packages!!!

    A great pass rusher is harder to find and more valueable than all the positions you listed above!

    It really allows them the flexibility to drop down further than we might be comfortable with to get Ramsey. Suppose we land a King's ransom to let the Rams come to #1...then take Spence and use the rest of the ammo to rebuild the team!!!

    Dude I would be insanely happy with an extra pick or 2 and trading back. It would legit make us competitive instantly.

    I don't think Spence will be a 1st Rd pick. Look at his #'s at Eastern Ky. You'd think they would be insanely good. Not so. I'm a big numbers guy. Sure, they don't always paint the total picture, but it's as close as you can get. Guys who show lots of production in the college ranks, tend to have them in the NFL...with obvious exceptions from time to time.

    As for trading back...I am usually all for trades (except for last year), but I don't see a trade happening at all. Why? Because it's all about supply and demand. There isn't enough demand for QB's in relation to the quality of QB's in this draft. Cleveland is going to sit tight and take Goff, and Dallas may take Wentz (but I suspect they will snag RGIII when he is cut, instead). The Rams would have to give up an epic amount for us to trade back to their spot, and I do not see that happening. They were on the receiving end of deals like that, and I doubt they'd entertain the notion of being on the giving end of such a deal. None of the QB's in this class are slam dunks.

    I think we will take Tunsil No.1 overall.

    Sadly, I think Tunsil will be the pick as well. The only way I support it, is if they get a solid Center and an experienced CB/WR....We need serious help in key positions. We need playmakers.

    There are big tall fat guys that can stand up working at Home Depot, Tunsil is not special enough to ever go No.1, we better not make that mistake I swear, will be such a let down to draft a lineman 1st overall with stud CB's and LB's there to be picked

    Dude I am with you...Trust me. I pray they take Bosa, because I don't think they will take Ramsey. A CB has never gone #1.
