The truly loaded positions to take day 1 and day 2 are EDGE, DB, TE, and RB, they are loaded. I'd push alot of running backs down though to round 2/3. I think maybe 2 go round 1, but teams don't rush out to draft many unless they feel they are going to be immediate studs. Unless I can get a couple of the top TE's, same thing, round 2-4 seems to be the sweet spot. EDGE or DB is the best place to go with a round 1 pick and even a round 2 pick overall.

Most of the DT guys look day 2 or later to me. The only guy I see at DT that's would be a sure-fire 1st rounder is Allen, but he weighed in light at the combine, making him most attractive as a 3-4 DE or 4-3 LDE.

ILBs are mixed in but mostly all 2nd round on and almost all of them come with something you have to be careful of injury wise, so I'd push most of the group to round 3 or day 3. I think the only clean ones are Cunningham and McMillan. Foster has a boatload of talent, but I've yet to hear the shakedown from that med eval at the combine. Whatever happened there wasn't a very good sign and I'm wondering at this point if he even goes 1st round despite being the clear #1 at the position.

I think interior offensive line is very strong in this draft through about the 4th round. I get a bit more selective after that and only see a few I really like.

The tackle class is mostly terrible. Alot of them are maybe right tackles but I see most having to slide inside. The only left tackles I see in the group are Ramzyck, Bolles, and Garcia and they might be a year out from being functionally strong enough to be worthwhile (similar to Fisher).

I think the WR class is very strong overall. It's not top heavy, but there are some definite bargains to be had in the 2nd round and onward. I really like Chris Godwin out of Penn State and wouldn't be upset one bit if KC took him there. Some good looking players though so I wouldn't sleep on this class. I just think some other positions are going to push this one down a bit this year.

Punter class looks strong btw. Seems silly, but I think a handful could be drafted and there's probably 4 I'd love to see KC draft if they weren't handcuffed to paying Colquitt absurd money.

If you're looking for a QB, this year is not the year you're going to pluck a day 1 starter. There's a few guys that deserve a 1st round grade, but I don't fault any team in the top 15 for passing on them for other positions.

Overall, I think this draft class is very strong. Teams that need a QB or a LT day 1, they are shit out of luck. I think if you need a 3-4 NT, it's slim pickings. After that, it's a pretty damn good class to fill alot of other voids.
