Feel free to add more
OL Addison West CG/Western Michigan?
 
Luther is intriguing, not just because he is my guy, but because he has gone from top-10 to third round and now second, but almost every team that is looking for offense has a scribe calling for LB3 to be plucked early because he is a unique playmaker.

Some of the downside I have read: Mom is a PITA, represented by the girlfriend, numbers dropped off last year, does not run hard when it isn't called for him, and could practice harder.

Well, aside from the Mom and GF, these items can be addressed. Brady sucked/was average. They only threw him short routes. Drink (of course) said he was a model player. So take that for what it is worth.

Goldin is fast - Tet is tall. The OSU guy, I am not sold on. Even today, Cris Collinsworth called LB3 his favorite WR this draft. "I think Luther Burden is a guy that is going to take the league by storm, I really do. When I was watching him, I was just going 'oh my gosh', there's nothing this guy does that I don't just love. When you talk about Deebo Samuel. He [Burden] plays like that, but he's faster." Collinsworth said.

Can those items be addressed? You either want to be great or you dont. If you are taking plays off at any level you do not have the drive to be great.
