also noted smythe played close to 300 snaps in the regular season and 50 in the playoffs and that roush was one of the few tes in the draft that could play in line and move.
thomas is a swiss army knife with speed. could line up in the slot, backfield, and / or return kicks.
poles knows they still have to address the dline and hopes to do so today and throughout the rest of the offseason. board just didn’t fall their way and trading up was going to be cost prohibitive for them.

Welcome to the Outlier Draft.
The best players? All at "non-premium" positions. The 3 guys I think that can't miss are a running back, a safety, and an off-ball LB.
The prospects at premium positions all have a major flaw. The best pass rusher has T-Rex arms. The best offensive tackles might actually be guards. The best QB thinks whole milk is spicy.
Trying to figure out who goes where is a dart throw. Well, to be fair, it's always a dart throw. It's *especially* a dart throw this year, ok? Trying to figure out which team is going to be ok overlooking which weakness is going to be damn near impossible.
In the thread below, I'll make some posts about my thoughts on the different positions to get into more specific discussions on players.
