Not that it was likely an option, but when I saw Parker falling I was hoping we would trade up for him.

Good question Potato.
If the board fell like it fell and I was GM instead of Dorseybot being controlled by the Decision Lens Matrix, this is what I would have done:
1. Bud Dupree, DE/OLB; Kentucky
- Hard worker, team leader and absolute physical freak of nature. Houston and his contractual demands are still a massive question mark and Hali is getting older. Other than Ford, there isn't anybody else on the roster who can effectively rush the passer. Dupree's college game was very similar to Houston's.
2. Jake Fisher, OL; Oregon
- Nasty, athletic and has the potential to play four positions on the line.
3. P.J. Williams, CB; Florida State
- Favorite CB in the draft. Big, strong and plays unafraid. Superb ball skills.
3. Rashard Green, WR; Florida State
- FSU's leading receiver for four straight years. Great routes, great hands, knows how to play the position and, like Williams, played his best in big games.
4. Mark Glowinski, OL; West Virginia
- Very good feet with legit, functional power.
5. Kenny Bell, WR; Nebraska
- Speed, size and hands. Winning combination.
5. Zach Vigil, LB; Utah State
- Better measurables and production and instincts and fundamentals then the guy we actually ended up with.
5. Tre McBride, WR; Williams & Mary
- Complete overhaul on the position with guys who have speed and understand how to play.
6. Ben Koyak, TE; Notre Dame
- Severely underused this past season, but a very good player. Exellent blocker.
7. Ifo Ekpre-Olomu, CB; Oregon
- Best nickle CB in the draft. Insane that he dropped this far due to a ACL suffered late in the '14 season (unless the knee is completely worthless). Ridiculously good ball skills and instincts. (Browns had a terrific draft.)
