While I don't expect it, I could see a scenario where Beane uses all 7 picks.

 

The way I see it, they have open roster spots at WR (lost Cooper and Hollins, signed Palmer), TE (lost Morris), DT (lost Johnson, Jefferson, and Phillips, signed Ogunjobi (suspended) and Drafted Sanders), and Punter (lost Martin, signed a couple cast aways that neither are a given).

 

So that's 4 (possibly 5 if they want to Draft someone late to hold Ogunjobi's spot).

 

Then there's positions like LB, where they could want to upgrade depth or at least have competition on Buffalo Joe or Olofoshio. Safety if they want to upgrade depth or have competition for Hamlin or Forrest. A late 6th or 7th flyer on a RB that they might want to try and stash wouldn't surprise me either. And they always tend to throw in a Late Round flyer on an Offensive Lineman as well.

 

Again, I don't expect him to stand pat at every pick. But it's less crazy than you'd think that he'd use all 7 picks on Day 3. Especially when the last couple picks are in the glorified UDFA, unlikely to make an NFL roster area anyways.

nice post.   I forgot about a Punter.   yep we'll get one of them too.    While we have the best depth of OL that I can remember, BBB does like to draft late rounders and trade away  a vet OL late in camp.
