I'd move up for Will Johnson. I'd also love to see Jayden Higgins and Trey Amos is you can't swing Johnson.
The only two players I'd move up for are CB Will Johnson or DT Darius Alexander.
If we stay put I think we will come away with 3 or 4 solid players today.
I would think DT, LB, CB/S would be high on the list. Milum or Fannin Jr would really jack this draft up but don't think either will be there at 137.

Jaylin Noel and Tate Ratledge
This would be fantastic. Also if Mason Taylor or Arroyo were there I'd take one of the TE's and Noel and grab another guard later. There are a lot of quality guards we could still get.
No thanks on trading up. Lots of quality at 50 and 52.

I would like a lot of players in the 2nd, it's a long list but as far as making this team tougher at the line and point of attack I will say TE and NT, like Elijah Arroyo and Joshua Farmer

No thanks on NT. They can be had just about anywhere in the draft or just sign a free agent. They are a dime a dozen. Too many good options to spend a second on a NT.

I like Wilson, he’s the best center this year and has experience playing guard as well.
I'd be ok with Wilson as well and if Olu actually can be effective at C I like that Wilson can slide to G.

Another good Guard please! Let's get this OL legit!
Adding another solid OL could turn a long time weakness into a strength.
And then it could really turn into a strength with solid depth that injuries couldn't phase. It's all about getting a leg-up on the division.

The only positions I would want the Hawks to trade up for tonight is either WR or TE... either TE Mason Taylor (my preference) or TE Elija Arroyo... or WR Jayden Higgins.

We shouldn't give up on Haynes after one year. Many many lineman take a year to acclimate to the NFL. I don't think its a good use of draft capital to spend all your top picks on guards. I really want Jaylin Noel and a TE. Maybe a good edge, linebacker, or safety.

We also must remember our system and coaching for them were also rookies, don't think they got real NFL ready out of the gate with how the staff was all trying to figure out what they were doing as well.

Tight end and defensive line are now bigger holes than OL. The interior DL is one injury to a 30-year-old dude away from suddenly turning as impotent as our OL was last year. Ty Robinson's definitely on my radar for one of those second-rounders.

Smart teams know when to cut the cord before bad players hurt them further. I'm not saying to cut Haynes, but depending on him at this point would be foolish. Make sure we're good at the position and if something clicks, it's a bonus. He was beyond abysmal last year though.

People have completely flipped on how important coaching is to OL play and are buying way too much into Grubb being a convenient scapegoat. Drafting Zabel in the first should be a sign that the problems go beyond who the coordinator was.
