Lawrence will be in the 2021 draft. He was a true freshman last season. But, there will be plenty of others in next years draft.

Is this anything more than your "spidey sense" giving you that old feeling? I mean, do you have spies in the other 26 war rooms, so that you know what all of them will be doing with their drafts?
The way I read all of these moves it is so that TT can maximize his draft. If you actually listen to what TT says, he can't stand drafting for need. No one seems to listen to him, but if you follow his other moves, it really does seem to fit the pattern a guy who is practicing what he preaches. If he does that, I am not sure what his motive is other than to just draft off his board, take the players he just thinks are the best fit.
I'm actually OK with drafting up to a QB, even in the 1st round (in principle). It would have to be the right player, and I am not sure that I am that sold on any QB in this draft, but if they fell into range (22-ish), or even higher if a team was not necessarily trying to maximize value. That being said, I think we stay at 28 or so, and draft best available, even though that really means that we have no control over who that is.

I also think there is sorta a karma like thing that frequently happens.
Last year we happened on Derwin James, and he was beyond our wildest dreams. This year, a think there is a chance a top DT or OT could fall into our laps. I just remember that AJ was counting on one of the 5 OT to be there at RT, our biggest position of need. Typically, 5 is enough to get through a single 1st round. But a couple picks before we went, the last one was taken. We switched to the next biggest need, and we got Buster Davis.
This year, I feel like we could take the roster we have now, and pretty much start the season. We can take anyone who we like when we draft, trade down if we can find someone to give picks, and we will be well served. But when you have to make moves, you frequently over think them and make mistakes.
