Sooooooo Left Guard at #24


Soul Rebel

Recommended Posts

Not spending FA money on the position and the team has stated that they want Moton as a tackle. We have a gaping hole at LG that is only worsened when you look who is standing to the left of this position. Compound that with the other Kalil having a hard time staying healthy and in his final year. 

I really like Justin Reid, but not Harrison and it will cost too much to trade up for James.  However, Deshon Elliott and Marcus Allen are my two draft crushes, with Elliott being a beast that we can grab in R2. 

With the Torrey Smith signing, we still need a WR2 but have promising youngsters in Samuel and Byrd. I like DJ Moore if Ridley isn't available, but nobody else at 24. Not sold on Sutton or Kirk at 24, but would prefer someone like ESB or Miller later than using a first on a WR. Honestly, a trade for Martavis, Corey Coleman or maybe Jermaine Kearse would make me happier.

Sooooooo, that brings us to LG. We need one, and badly. #NotSilatolu

Will Hernandez, Isaiah Wynn or Billy Price at 24? I think Hernandez is a beast and a plug-and-play LG from day one and has All-Pro written all over him. Wynn and Price can also start day one, though I prefer Hernandez' trajectory.  Price would offer us flexibility to slide over to center too if need be in 2019. 

It ain't sexy, but LG makes a ton of sense right now.

I'd take any of those and be happy.

Good points.. I still see Reid and Moore as our true targets now but a LG/C could be the pick..

I’d be thrilled with Price. Day-one starter this year at guard, and a possible replacement for Kalil next season. 

I'm a little weary after he tore his pec bench pressing at the combine. If he fell to us in the 2nd because of it I believe it's a no brainer. But drafting him in the first knowing he will miss a lot of the summer practice time is risky.

Free agency has been open for about 2 hours now and we have not signed a guard so we must be drafting one?  Maybe, but it's still over a month until the draft and there are alot of guards still in free agency so wait and see I think is a better answer now.

    • lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

    • Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
