"BPA" is the easy answer, but given equally talented players at both positions, which would you pick to address first?

[GolfandBills]

Highest rated one i don’t care CB or WR… if i had to pick then I’d go corner round 1 receiver round 2

Guard who also can play center or vice versa, or CB.  👍🏻

 

WR?  Just say no. 👎🏻

[BuffaloRebound]

I’ll say CB in round 1 because the good ones with speed never last.  Then Interior O Line in Round 2.  

[NewEra]

Draft the best player.  Period

[Mij yllek]

BPA...Jameson Williams unless he's already off the board.

 

Now that their #1 receiver is gone, watch out for Green Bay at #22.

[SoCal Deek]

Seeing that list of free agents and keeping with the theme of putting the band back together…Sammy Watkins returns at Vet Minimum. 😂

[Rico]

WR Day 1

CB, then IOL Day 2

[Clyde Smith]

Corner! Both positions are deep.

How would you feel if it was a DE, RB, OT, QB or TE?

[boater]

lol "Jackrabbit Jenkins"

[MAJBobby]

Highest Rated Football Player on the board.  

 

Finish filling the holes head to the draft.

[DrDawkinstein]

Depends on which WRs and which CBs are on the board. Have their been any runs? etc

 

We met with CBs, C/Gs, and WRs the most, so I'd bet our first 3 picks come at those positions. The order depends on how the draft falls.

 

If you gave us some different combos, we might be able to give better answers.

CB  ,  loss of Wallace and Tre on the mend

[BuffaloBillsGospel]

You take the best player available, never draft for need, that's why you take care of those in free agency.

[GymShorts84]

I’d lean towards corner. Tre won’t be 100% at the start of the season. The pass rush should be much better, but historically, a lot has been asked of this secondary.

Every GM will tell you they want to draft BPA. But every GM ultimately ends up drafting BPA at position of need. You dont want to reach on need too much, but it always plays into the equation. Beane is no different. All his picks are typically BPA at a position of need.

[Allen2Moulds]

Long corner with speed in the 1st Round, Guard or Center in the 2nd, WR in the 3rd.

[GymShorts84]

Drafting BPA as a hard fast rule is how we got CJ Spiller.

What about when you don’t have enough cap space to address all holes in F/A?  You still want to draft BPA, instead of filling holes?
