A "1st Round" OT dropping to 57

Recommended Posts

So...a DJ Humphries side discussion in another thread gave me an idea about the "projected" 2nd rounders we've been debating this year.  For the 1st 2 rounds it seems like a certain crop has constantly been discussed:

 

Brandon Scherff

Andrus Peat

Ereck Flowers

Eric Fisher

La'el Collins

Cedric Ogbuehi

TJ Clemmings

DJ Humphries

 

Now I know in previous drafts we've seen a decent amount of OTs go before our second pick, but this year, given the amount of talent elsewhere and what could shape up, I think there's a decent shot one of these 8 guys is available at 57. 

 

 

Quick factoids:

 

-There were only 6 that went before 57 in 2014 (and I'm being fair because some are more guards)

-There were only 6 that went before 57 in 2013

 

And this OT class isn't even perceived to be that special overall so I really think there's a possibility someone slips. 

 

 

So..who could you see this being?

    • I'm really not stressing about upgrading from Bryce. I'm frustrated with our inability (or refusal) to recognize overall bad QB performance and failure to seriously address the issue. QB is the most impactful position on the field, and we're not only settling for what we've been given to this point, but we've rewarded it with a fully guaranteed 5th year extension for a player that's never played 2 NFL franchise QB quality games back to back in 3 seasons. I can't understand how that's ok from a coach's or GM's viewpoint. Successful franchises don't do things like this. It just doesn't make sense.  We do not have a top half of the league QB right now. Since we don't have that player, we should be looking for him. Pickett isn't it. Grier isn't it. Bryce hasn't proven he is yet. Until you have that sure fire franchise QB, you keep looking. You're not consistently making the playoffs, a deep run, or a SB appearance without one.  What's the worst that could happen? We end up with 2 potential number 1 QBs? How horrible. 
    • Easy to understand Pickett, if this is anywhere close to on point. Canales wants to get as close to Bryce as he can- get the pace and timing in the throws as close a he can to Bryce. So the other players don’t have to adjust so much, to a new guy.       If Cam was the 1, he would look for a rocket arm.  But Bryce is the 1. Look for limited in the same way.  Low velocity, plenty of air under it, feels just like home when Picket comes in. And you have the guys on the second team not having such a radical adjustment (if they have to play) like with Dalton to Bryce.    Enter Grier. I guess we will collect those types.   
    • Best part is if we draft him, we can also use him as our fourth and one QB sneaker
