Based on the reported interviews they are considering an LB with their 2nd round pick. They may have to move up R2 a bit to get whomever they want vs whomever is available.
The tackling on the rest of the defense is so good that it might be okay to have a coverage backer even if he misses a few tackles.
Idk personally I think I'd be very surprised if we took a S, ILB, RB, DT, Edge, or backup OL at 13. Mildly surprised if we took a no.3 CB, TE, or backup QB. Fully expecting a WR.
Well, it depends on the player to me. Sonny Styles at 13? Hard to turn down. Same for Caleb Downs, Bain or Bailey and Love (I get that some of these are unlikely). At some point the players get too good to pass up. Same with corner. We run the most dime in the nfl, so it's very rare that we don't have at least 3 corners on the field. I wouldn't mind all 3 being shutdown guys. We'd have the best secondary in the nfl by far. I wouldn't rule out the Rams being the team that most wants to trade down as well.
I don't disagree with CB, that's why it's on the mildly surprised list with Delane and McCoy at that position. I'd be mildly surprised by Sadiq at TE or Simpson at QB as well. All the rest of the guys I'd expect us to take at 13 would be WRs barring a trade and that list is 6 options deep with Tate, Tyson, Cooper, Lemon, Concepcion, and Boston in no order.
I can see the reason in that. I personally love Styles and Downs, but I'd definitely not choose them there if I only liked them.
