If Warren is gone, who would you take?

I personally like

Jihaad Campbell - phenomenal athlete that can play multiple roles including rush on third downs.

Colston Loveland - a very good TE and might be a more fluid athlete than Warren. More traditional and would be a dangerous threat in the middle and down seams.

Grey Zabel - he’s been shooting up boards. Can play every position on the line. Would probably be an all pro center or guard. Maybe five guys in the nfl that can play every position.

Will Johnson - would be a great tandem with the new secondary. Was a bit hurt this year.

There are probably more guys as well.

Firstly, Colston Loveland, like Tyler Warren, is a "sprint up the card" kind of pick at 14. If neither Loveland nor Warren are there, my first thought would be to trade down. If that's not available, I would draft one of Derrick Harmon, Jihaad Campbell, or Nick Emmanwori. In hundreds of scenarios I've run, I've never seen a scenario in which one of those options was not available.

Warren yes run to the podium! Loveland is a guy I would trade down and target. I could also see us trading back far enough to take DT Kenneth Grant (We NEED DT), and then taking Mason Taylor in the 2nd.

If Warren is gone and Loveland is there, then he has to be the pick right? We desperately need an upgrade if not upgrades at TE, and both Warren and Loveland appear to be difference makers. If both Warren and Loveland are gone and we can't trade up then it's BPA I suppose.

I'd be ok if we end up trading up for either of them, especially for Warren. I'd actually prefer we start trading up more than trade down. We need to add difference makers, not a bunch of high RAS score JAGs that we always seem to end up w/ when we trade down a bunch.

Yeah, someone is going to be there. I’m wondering will they spend a first on a lb? Would be nice to have a guy who can chase down these mobile QBs. I really like Schwesinger in the second if we don’t go Campbell.

I forgot about Harmon, he is a great disrupter. I always wonder what kind of athletes these nose tackles would be if they lost weight. Guy is crazy strong.omar Norman Lott is also a later round DT who is a terror on the inside. I was kinda hoping for him.
