I'm of the mindset that dan feeney would bring the biggest immediate impact and would also be the safest pick. If we took him at 16 I wouldn't bat an eye. That said we have a knack for finding solid guards and RTs, edge rushers and dbs not so much and we can find both in the best way at 16 and 48. It just doesn't make sense for us to pass on a Sidney jones or Quincy Wilson at 16. Although if we can trade back to the 20s and still land Harris, or take feeney, and pick up another 2nd, then I think that's a much better move

I think our best bet would be to try trading back a few spots to around 20 or so and take Feeney- which he should almost certainly be there. That would probably only net us a third though- so we could try trading back a little farther around 25 -26  to try and acquire an extra 2nd  and hope that Feeney is still there - which is certainly possible... And if he's not we could just fall back on a guy like Howard. Ofcourse that's only if a team even wants to swap picks. If we stand pat  at 16 and one of the top corners is there such as Jones or Wilson you just have to assume we go that route. Ppl have been banging on the table for it similar to how they were clamoring for a first round WR before we took Perriman. Not that I think Ozzie or decosta will cave to what the fans or media think by any means- but it also just  makes sense and  the cb position has been arguably our Achilles heel for years now and not having taken one in the  first since jimmy. Everytime Jimmy went down it was glaringly obvious that our secondary began to buckle. With the strong addition of tavon last year who showed he can play inside and out- 1 more strong corner will give us a very solid core 3 moving forward. So yeah if one of the 3 between lattimore , Jones or Wilson is there at 16 I think you just almost have no choice but to grab one-  unless another team offers up something ridiculously crazy to move up.

the more i think about feeney though the more i realise i like forrest lamp almost as much but think he could be around later - either further trade back or maybe dropping towards our pick in the 2nd (i hope) - but i agree with you, i think there is decent interior o-line depth in this draft but not a huge amount at the top end - so id be more inclined to stick to the picks and take the top end talents at other spots unless someone sells the house to us

Oh I'd agree with taking Sidney or Wilson, but if OJ is realistically ring considered at 16 then I am assuming those two would be gone, well at least Jones anyway. After jones and Lattimore though I think there is a slightly significant drop in overall talent and plug and play ability.
