C: Huge position of need
QB: 7th round pick on someone more promising than Hartman as 3rd QB
Still need to add some more secondary options hopefully.
I think we had a damn good draft, especially since Tunsil is really a part of it.

I was liking to Steve Suter on Kevin Sheehan show. He does play by play for the Terps but also does film break down for Terps and Commanders. Had some good insights if not pragmatic insights on the draft. His insights:
Styles: Loved the pick. Who doesn't?
Williams: On day 2 of being in building is best run after catch WR we have in the room. Not a blazer but runs under control. Great hands receiver.
Draft goes downhill for Commanders after 3rd. Mostly because of gaps left in roster that could have been filled.
Josephs: Doesn't love the film. One trick pony only speed rush. No spin or inside move. In 20 minutes of highlights only one successful inside move. NFL OL will solve him quickly. Curious to see if coaches can fix him
Allen: A football player. Great vision/breaking tackles. No downhill speed and not shifty. Feels the RB room is a bit odd ball with no real feel of running game intent. Is being a footballer enough?
Gulbin: Not impressed with his strength but will get his shot.
Definitely appreciate his more critical eye. We all know the 1/3 rule. 1/3 of draft picks will be starters. 1/3 will be JAGs and 1/3 will be out of NFL soon. His analysis gives insight on which two are likely to be starters and which are likely to be JAGs. I guess we'll see. I definitely feel like it was a solid draft and I think in 3 years we see Styles, Williams and then 1 of the next three being a contributor we will say it was very successful.
