RT and OL thread

Reaching for an OT is probably a bad move but we might be able to get the best OG in the draft at #34. That would help us, too.

That would be great, OG would be great as long as he is good enough to start.
We need starting quality at #34, I do not care what position.

Of course it would help, especially if Compton is moved to RT.

Taking the 6th-7th best OT in round 2 might be taking the BEST RT...which is what we need. Remember we got Jansen in round 2 and he started right away.

Oh, I forgot to note that Tucker said that Jake Matthews is better than any OT in last years draft.

Heard scout/consultant Chris Landry talk about Morgan Moses a couple weeks ago and said excellent Right Tackle prospect. Said good footwork, perfect long arms for pass protection, good film, better run blocker than pass protector but with his size, foot work and arms pass protecting should develop nicely. Said he should be a right tackle early in career but could see him shift to Left Tackle down the road. Good prospect in the second.

UVA has put out a nice crop of Olineman, I like Morgan Moses at 34.

Too many flags for Cyrus Kouanjo in the second, but if he is there say in the 3rd or 4th, probably grab him.

Can u say FA? After this debacle he will go undrafted.

What a strange draft season. One player leaves the Combine because God told him to, another just quits halfway through a pro day.

IMO this sounds like straight Bull Sh%t. I don't think he has the desire. You've been training for weeks for this day and you dehydrate.

Here's my post-draft O-line predictions:

LT: Trent Williams. Same ole, same ole.

LG: Shawn Lavuao. Upgrade in pass-blocking, downgrade in run blocking.

C: Kory Lichtensteiger. Upgrade in run-blocking, downgrade in pass-blocking.

RG: Spencer Long. Don't expect him to start Day 1, but for sure by the middle of the season he should be, IMO.

RT: Tyler Polumbus. What a pleasure to be able to pencil in our stud RT every year! Moses could be the starter by the end of the year, but I don't expect it.

All in all, an upgrade over last year's pathetic unit. What are your thoughts on the O-line starters?

It's all about competition IMO. Only Williams should be penciled in as a 100% week one starter.
