Ideally I want Eric Fisher, but since there's a better chance Hell would freeze over, I went with Chance Warmack.

1. Chance Warmack OG (Could go very high or be available.)

2. Sharrif Floyd DT (Probably will rise to be a top 10 or even top 5 pick, likely won't be availaible.)

3. Cordarrelle Patterson WR (Might still be on the board, but possibly gone by #14)

4. Lane Johnson OT (Like his potential, might go to the Chargers at #11)

5. Kenny Vaccaro FS (Not high on taking a FS this high, but if everyone else is gone he's bpa in my opinion)

Polls like this are stupid even for the off-season because the assumptions are unrealistic. Exactly how can we assume that a draft pick who has never played a down in the NFL will be rated as a perennial all pro. And exactly when do we pick players in the draft just based on talent without considering factors like differences in cost to pick up in free agency. For example if it comes down to WR or OT, you go with OT because cheap OTs especially left tackles are hard to find and expensive. This year by contrast there will likely be a number of WRs who will be cheaper to sign and proven. Then there is the whole issue of which positions are easiest to star right away versus those guys who need time to mature. For example, how many WRs contribute significantly in their rookie year versus those who need a year to mature like Michael Crabtree or Dez Bryant versus a Julio Jones. Then there is the whole bust rate which varies greatly by position. For example, OT busts at a lower rate than WR or DT/DE for example.

Given all these factors you would go OT and corner before you go WR.
