As Is 2 Round Dream Draft

[BigHairedAristocrat]

I agree that if we draft a 1st round QB, then our 2nd round pick should be used on the best offensive lineman available. The last thing we need is for the development of our new franchise QB to be hampered because his Oline can't protect him.

I am higher on Ponder and more skeptical of Locker than the OP. I think Ponder is our man.

And, as much as we need help at RG, I think the defense needs more help. It would be easier to find a decent free agent guard than it would be to find the kind of help that we need on defense. Besides, maybe one of our young bucks at guard can step up and claim the spot.

Ergo:
1 - Von Miller DE
2 - Christian Ponder QB

Then we sign lots of UDFA's because the draft was only 2 rounds.

Agreed about Ponder.


However, it's still blatantly obvious that our QBs need a better line. I think we're set at both tackles and Center can be fixed by moving one of our several G-C players into Rabach's place, so they'll be playing in-position and solving a need. So, I think a Guard is needed in Round 1.


1- Mike Pouncey - The top-rated Guard by many...don't expect him to be there in Round 2. He fills a HUGE need, pick him if available. Bonus points for being able to play Center too.


2 - Christian Ponder




Jake Locker = Please no.
