I’m not claiming to like DeJean because of his versatility so much. Think he can play on that island outside. Eventually can travel in specific man to man against a top target into the slot….

Oh I like him for that. depends on how the DC wants to play. If it's more a hybrid appraoch he is a perfect fit for changing things up on defensive schemes. I would love to give teams varying looks

Which to me signals Latham or Mims

Dejean was the ONLY secondary player we had in for a visit. If I was the DC I would be pounding the table. he is also a skilled ST player which we could use also

But the question being what Rosie will do? Latham or Mims? Oline. Been really consistent on my thinking. So I’ll be shocked if it isn’t Oline.

But if I’m wrong? You have the fallback of what you even are saying as a downside.

Well I am much better with offense than D,but even I,with my limited knowledge,  I can see the talent this kid has. He just gets better the more i watch him. I know WR's and TE's,but this guy can cover them from whatever position we want him to play. he can play deep CB or cover a good TE if that's what we want him to do

Think the Washington T might be the best option. But at 22…think we are left taking Guyton very likely.

We had Beebe in also. I like him at 53. As I already said he has the bulk of an OT and has played T and G on both sides. He pancakes people in the run game

Outside shutdown corner at 22 would be best answer.

There is nothing likely LOL. We had many O line guys in. Beebe is the highest ranked. If we miss or go another direction we have later options. I don't see a gigantic need to take one at 22 JMO. Just give me a solid guy at RG. A first rounder is not really needed. Good class,lots of talent in this group at alot of positions.

I keep trying to work TE2 in here somewhere

Versatility to eventually travel and follow a specific top WR opponent. What are we talking here? Ceedee Lamb…I’m going to sneakily slide in Watson from Green Bay. Maybe consider Aiyuck maybe leaves the Niners so facing Deebo. These guys are bigger and more physical…like how we have AJ. So really highlighting these specific matchups as needing to be covered by our Cornerback.

I would like Howie to stand at 22,maybe trade back one of the round 2's,then again there is round 1 talent in round 2 so who knows?

I'm not drafting a guy for specific players. That's a bad strategy. He has to face many with differing styles.

Is DK Metcalf a concern? Rams present their own dual threat problem. Cardinals so close to drafting a sick WR. Will they trade back from that?

They haven't had a WR like Fitz in  along time. I can't see them letting Harrison go

Love the Rams WR's. Nacua really stepped it up

No single WR more highlighted and important than Ceedee Lamb. If he’s a bad matchup? Look Lamb is pretty tough. Just need a guy maybe…can hold near his own against him in primary single coverage. At 22? Versatility is great as a DB. But can he cover these key larger physical WR in our clear path residing in the NFC hierarchy? That’s where DeJean I believe sticks out as  an especially wise choice.

Erick Kendrick’s was a steal move to teach them the new D. They were the better team last year. Is what it is. We need them to come backwards. Draft ahead still. Then after the draft(possibly even during) you have teams dumping vets(sometimes just money contractually). Gkn

Didn't they come backwards?  They lost 2 OL.. who is running the ball...and who covers WRs?  Didn't they lose a few DL too?

Can Dejean handle Cooper Kupp and Puka Nukaua? Think the Rams matchup potentially his worst.

Well you have to expect rookie mistakes,but we will have that with anyone. I think DeJean is the most NFL ready DB I have seen in awhile

They had that afforded to them

Compare him to like Wiggins from Clemson. Wiggins might actually be a bit better than DeJean. Overall. But Wiggins perfect mirroring with his slight frame isn’t the better fit for us as DeJean to face our very specific NFC roadblocks.

They were better last season. Happened. Moving forward.
