that is what i beleive the tuna will go after in the draft.
laurinitis or gholston
vince hall
xavier adibi
ezra butler
ali highsmith
RT probably gonna happen
TE id expect it.
but i think we will see at least 2 or 3 linebackers.

This isnt the year to draft linebackers. Weak class. Defensive line and offensive line are pretty deep though and cornerbacks arent as spectacular at the top but pretty deep and you could get some good ones in the 3rd or 4th
-
i wouldnt call Laurinitis or Connor "weak".
if somehow we could get an extra 1st round pick, and Connor would be available when we pick, he'd be a lock at our pick. but i still wouldnt rule out Leman later on too. -

defensive line isn't particularly deep and alot of the LBs you listed don't fit the "big" parcells linebacker mold. heres how i see it
Cliff Avril (OLB)
Ezra Butler (OLB)
Rey Maualuga (perfect fit)
Beau Bell
Spencer Larson
Brandon Miller
Mike Klinkenborg
to name a few -

mauluga, connor, rivers, laurinaitis, dunbar, wheeler, highsmith at OLB...
at MLB i'll agree though.. pretty weak: goff leman hall... but IMO Moffitt is going to be drafted late and be a heck of a steal...
but for OLB I believe it's a good year and we need to at least snag one of the afored mentionned in the first 3 rounds... or draft a DE and convert him into a 3-4 OLB (gholston anyone? or jackson from usc ... i'm not so high on Q groves though...)
if we can get a hand on Zenon the CB from LSU or tony joiner the S from UF with our 4th, i'd also be very happy -
ILB is weak i agree, pass rushing LB is fairly strong with alrite depth. maualuga will likely come out but cushing will stay. 3-4 Dlineman go like this:
Glenn Dorsey
Kentwan Balmer
Dre Moore
Frank Okam (NT)
Red Bryant (NT)
Trevor Laws
Really for parcells a DE is 280-300 based on past drafts
NT is suprisingly light based on his past around 6-2 310ish.
Pass rush OLB is about 250 and ILB are about the same in his defense.
not to mention the CB class is really deep and the S class is very weak so we could get a 4th round talent at corner in the 6th. im also a big lowery fan maybe with our 4th. not to mention S is probably something we should waste a pick on. -

Guys, I don't think that the tuna is going to draft LB's just for the heck of it...he knows we need some talent and he's gonna draft the best players on the board....I'd think we'll draft a LB somewhere but I doubt he's gonna "load up" on LB's....I do see us taking Chris Long at 1 and a corner in the 2nd.
Ozzy rules!! -
I dont know we have pretty good LBs all we need is a MLB if Zach retires to is traded

IMO,this is the weakest draft that i can remember,just our luck, here's to trading down and picking up an extra number one, somehow someway we must come out of this weak draft with two number ones., lauranitas and fred davis would be exciting

if he declares...
i want Rey Maualuga -
