Looking at the depth of the DL in this draft, I agree that OT should be a priority with our 1st rd pick. Then go best DL available in the 2nd.
I'm not high on resigning Keenan Allen or signing Mack. I like Allen and Williams does seem to rely on him to create space on crucial downs. But, it currently feels like we have too many cooks in the kitchen. Williams almost seems like he doesn't know who to throw it to at times and sporadically looks too many places before making a decision. Maybe you resign him if the price is really cheap, but I wouldn't prioritize it. I would rather first allocate the money to the OL and add a proven, young talent if availble.
As for Mack. I loved him when he was here, but we don't need to be allocating 15 mil a yr of cap space on a 34 yr old DE. Maybe if he was coming off a stellar year, but he has 5 sacks so far this season. I'm more in favor of getting younger. We don't need to be adding over the hill players until our team proves they are a close to competing for a championship and need a player or two to get over the top. But as of now, the defense looks atrocious and who knows how a new playcaller will affect the future outlook. I'd rather pay and/or draft a young guy and give them the snaps.
