Guyton might be able to do it. Suamataia might be able to do it. Mims might be able to do it but man is he raw as ****. You have to worry about Morgan's length. Amegadjie is a large jump in competition and he's a bit raw too.
What I figure is Tennessee and New York are taking LTs at 7 and 10. New Orleans might take one at 14. Then you also have some wildcards in there like the Chargers and the Raiders that could take one of those guys and put them at RT instead and pass on the RTs.
It sucks. I don't think we can realistically get higher than 15. So I think 15 or 16 is your target area and you hope one guy makes it there but that's going to cost 1-32, 3-95, and a 2025 1st. If not, then do you want to move to 22/23 to get one of those maybes? Because I think you have to get in front of the gauntlet of DAL, GB, ARZ, and BAL. I don't know... I don't love it.
We must re-sign Donovan Smith then let the chips fall in the draft and move accordingly.

Just floating an idea here. What if you would include last years #1 FAU, and our 1st this year as starters for a conversation with the Bears about #9? FAU would be a cap hit, but the Bears would essentially get two first rounders for the #9 pick. One at a position of need in a DE. Then if the price wasn't too much more from there, we might be in postion to lock up Mahomes blindside for the rest of his career.
