There are quite a handful of decent guys in the 2nd/3rd rounds that are 6-2+ and are good defenders as well. By spamming the defense in the 2nd and 3rd rounds, we are more likely to actually manage to get 1 or 2 top 4 guy out the deal.

I have been thinking the same thing. Likely throw a goalie in there with one of the third-rounders, but going D-heavy seems like the prudent thing to do. Josh Jacobs and Alex Peters intrigue me as second round picks.
Another option would be attempting to trade up back into the first round. What would the 34th and 54th picks be worth in terms of first round position? 25 or so? Might be worth it if someone like Roland McKeown slides a bit.
