You may never have Jamaar Chase but having Juju, Claypools and Pickens on rookie contracts is valuable.

So if you want LT with the #1 pick, who do you want? Does it bother you that the OTs with any chance to fall to us at #32, Mims and Guyton, played RT in college, but we're wanting them for LT? What do you do if there is a run on the OTs all the way through Mims and Guyton? Do you reach for someone like Morgan or Suamataia? Do you trade down to a lower pick hoping one will still be available? Or do you adapt to the situation and change your strategy on what position you're going to take first?
