Like I said we'll see in a couple of years 

Are you saying that is who you would pick?

Personally I think he might be in consideration more then some on here think, a lot is going to be determined by who goes before us.  I'm not convinced he is going to be an elite LT but what if he becomes an elite RT, how much value is there in that? 

He might be working on his footwork right now and show up at the combine and help himself, who knows.

The problem with LTs is that they are usually over drafted, very rarely are you going to get so called value from one.  At any given point in the draft you there will probably be a player of another position on your board with a higher grade.  At some point you just to decide how much you are willing to overdraft relative to what is out here to fill other needs.

I can't think of any other position that there seems to be such a deficiency in outside of maybe QBs.

By no means am I saying we should use the 8th pick on one, but if we are waiting for the perfect player at the perfect spot we might be waiting for awhile.  Maybe we overdraft in the 2nd or 3rd.

I'm not saying for sure that's who'd I'd pick, but I certainly believe he's worthy of the pick. We'll see how free agency shapes up. I've seen many players "dismissed" over the years only to come out and ball. Cam Robinson is good now and is only going to improve, has an extremely high ceiling

I like Robinson but I rather have Fournette
