This draft has to go Round 1: best WR or DE available, rest of the draft: O line depth. Especially guard.

He can't carry the extra weight he put on a couple of years ago, and that 1500 yd season as I predicted probably took 2 to 3 years off his longevity, perhaps for the most part his first 2 years with us just about killed his playing career, he's just not built for conventional running.
