I really don’t think so.
It’s not sexy but i would not be opposed going tackle and guard with first two picks if guys are there. Getting a combo of Paris and Wright would be a steal. From there, we just need to add another receiver and tight end. What scares me is if our pick comes around and Mayer from ND is there, we pick him. I think he’s gonna be a stud tight end in the nfl but I really want us to draft a tackle with first pick and lock that up.
I think between line receiver, we are 4 players away from revamping the starters. Draft 2 and sign 2. 3 lineman in total with a receiver.

Watching the Eagles game got me thinking about Derek Barnett, I wonder if he might be an option for us. Any chance Philly might move on after this season?

Would love to see Barnett in Nashville....Eagles just signed him to a new 2 year deal not long before the season and shortly before he got hurt. Wonder how that would effect anything?

I understand your point, but I don't think these guys are beholden to any single offensive philosophy. If they had an elite passing QB, we would probably center our offense around that. If we have a generational talent at RB paired with a less-than-elite QB (which includes Tannehill even though he is decent), we are likely going to emphasize the running game. Coaches can only work with what they've got.
I would love a shift in philosophy to modernize the offense, mainly because I believe it is more fun to watch and is simply a better brand of football. But good QB's are damn hard to find. Gotta remember where this franchise has been, post-McNair it took us 15 years just to find a decent starter in Tannehill.
I don't expect Ran Carthon to come in and work miracles. I just expect him to improve the roster enough to at least give Vrabel a chance to maximize whatever combination of talent we are able to cobble together.

We have 4-5 guys on offense to work with. RT, Henry, Burks, and our TE (not even going to try spelling that). Then probably Davis on the OL.
But yeah 4 offensive linemen, a number 1 WR, a 2nd TE and/or slot WR along with improving at corner and pass rusher is a massive number of needs. We basically have needs at all of the most important positions on a FB team (tackle, corner, WR, and QB). It's going to be near impossible to fix all of that in one off-season

For anyone who isn't familiar with Cody Mauch. This is what an offensive lineman should look like. Known as a mauler in the run game, needs work in pass protection (I've not watched him, just regurgitating what pff says) but was a former TE so he has the athletic ability needed to excel in protection.

I'll just leave this here for your educational purposes. What do you know? Those are the exact 4 QB's that I identified as elite.
Dak Prescott did a really bang up job in the playoffs, as usual.
Hurts, Jefferson, Mahomes among MVP finalists

Point A because I want a LT.
B is because I want a burner we have a guy with Johnsons skill set in Bruke, I'm not saying draft Hyatt (I would love to have him) but we need a speedy slot guy.
My ideal scenario is LT in the first, Wright in the second.

Spend on a C in FA.
In one off season you rebuilt your O line.
