Not really presenting this with any strong opinion - In order of preference, knowing many won't be available, I want Mike Williams, Corey Davis, Dalvin Cook, OJ Howard, Jabrill Peppers, Derrick Barnett - I was looking up where the best teams in the NFL invested in the safety position and was pretty surprised with what I found.

The Steelers, Packers, Falcons, and Patriots were the top 4 teams in the NFL so that gives us 8 different safeties (small sample size, but interesting nonetheless).

3/8 Drafted in the First Round
6/8 Drafted in the First TWO Rounds
7/8 Drafted in the First 71 Picks

I do believe that safety is our weakest position far and away. Wilcox played poorly last year and Chris Conte's presence on the field is cancer. I love how Tandy ended the year but can he do that for a full season?

I don't think either of the top 2 drop to 19 so I'd probably rank the next preferences like this: Peppers, Baker, and Obi a distant third.
