He's the best edge in this class by far IMO. If not for his neck history, he'd be a surefire top-7 pick. Yes, it's a risk but he has played 2 seasons w/o incident since being cleared to return. He also has the prototypical scheme fit, size, and length that Poles/Flus have repeatedly said they want.
Man, if Poles is ok with his medical eval, he's the defense player I'm most excited about in this draft for us. You hit on Latu and this defense is immediately elite.
Alt/Odunze/Latu -- those are my 3 targets but honestly still don't know where Poles is going with this.
I'm waiting for Thursday morning to vote. I just don't know.
Anyone that says they know (unless they work in HH at a high level) are lying.

I hope they get bumped up to 8 by punishing the Falcons. That makes jumping up to try and get MHJ a tiny bit easier. If not, I say go Odunze and run out the best offense for Williams.

Please no defensive players. Its been proven in todays NFL that they don't win you championships.
Max support Williams. If Alt and Odunze ain't there. Trade down...

I picked Bowers because I am an unreasoned fanboi and that is a wildcard type pick and we all know Poles is full of surprises. There has been very little word on Bowers being his guy so I see it happening unless of course we can somehow grab MHJ. In that case I would pick Jr.

Even at 8, on a worst case scenario, all three WRs are gone. Worst case is only 3 QBs go, and all three WRs go. That still leaves pick #7 ahead of us picking someone before us. Even if 4 QBs go, mathematically all 3 WRs could still be gone.
Hopefully they make a decision to take away #8 from Atlanta before the draft, but we can't count on it.
I know extremely little about the prospects but we have nothing on the other side of Sweat and Verse seems like the kind of guy Flus likes so I think there’s a decent chance we go DE/EDGE. Personally, I’d lean toward one of the big 3 WR if available.
