Which player will we regret NOT drafting at #5?

Just watching Cris Carter talk about Amari Cooper on ESPN today - that's definitely a player I would expect is going to have a lot of success in the NFL. It got me thinking about this question. The trouble with the #5 pick is there are so many good players available but you can only pick one. Which player in this year's draft do you think we would end up most regretting if we pass on him at #5?

I listed some possibles. I'm going to say Winston is off the board by #5 and Leonard Williams is obvious, so we'll leave him out for the sake of discussion.

Which of these guys do you think we might have us one day saying, "Man, we could have drafted ______."

I think Gregory is most likely... And that there will be several teams doing the same. He has potential to be a very disruptive force, but will likely go to a lucky team at the bottom of the top 10, or even lower.

I don't see us passing up Leonard Williams if he's there, but I could see us passing up Amari Cooper which could end up being quite regrettable

The problem with this question is simply the number of quality characters who WILL be available at our pick. Even if we nail our pick, there is going to be opportunity to say "if only... "

I think the obvious answer is Mariota, it’s a QB league, other positions just don't impact the game as much and are easier to replace than QB. IF he’s on the board and IF we pass on him and IF he pans out be a franchise QB we’ll hear about it for years….Lots of BIG IF’s

I chose white bc I don't think he will be drafted by us.
