PS – no QB – stick with Foles and try to build around him – we have too many holes to start overlapping the allocation of resources…address the deeper holes, right? especially in the first 3 rounds…
Best available player. Hope it’s a CB or LB or S but best available player regardless.
But if he happens to be one of the following, then try to trade down:
Center (Kelce’s still young and center not worth spending that high a pick on)
TE (we already have too many)
WR (assuming we can bring back Maclin on a good deal, which I think we can)
BPA? I think at that spot in the draft, knowing what we know now, the best value would be at Corner.
I really want a CB or OLB – we need to be able to stop the passing game…more sacks and pressure, and tighter coverage on the outside…

anything except for RB and punter/kicker
Best player available of course, but I think you nailed it with LB, CB, and WR.
Of course that list might look much different after free agency, and re-signing Maclin is still a possibility.
I’m thinking linebacker in the first and corner in the second. Either way, we are going to find out a lot about Chip Kelly next April.

I like the thought of Howie following his strategy of “best player available”. Likely an OLB or a Corner.
