OU has a few offensive lineman expected to go in the early to mid rounds. I like Ben Powers A LOT at OG. We could snag him in the 4th or 3rd. Would make a perfect LG.

I'd love this! I just posted in another thread how I believe LG is a huge need for us and would love to grab a LG in the 3rd or fourth and use our top picks on DE and/or OT

Here is an exerpt from thedraftnetwork.com on Cody Ford: 

Basically the guy is a run mauler with athletic ability and can play both Guard and Tackle. That is a Hurney staple for o lineman that they are multifunctional, see Travelle Wharton and Ryan Kalil (played guard early). 

 

I would not be suprised at all if he is our pick at 16 next year.

Ford's tape is among the best and most fun of the 2019 offensive line class, as he shows everything from high-end promise to unbelievably physical finishes. The muscle of the Oklahoma offensive line, Ford has just one year as a full-time starter under his belt, but already his mental processing and technique are pretty impressive. He's a mauler at the point of attack, while also possessing the athleticism to get out in space and the agility in pass protection to shut down all types of rushers.

There is no question that right now his physical and athletic gifts are superior to his polish, but Ford has the traits to be a top-tier player in the NFL. He needs refinement and proper coaching, preferably at tackle first and then moving to guard if he consistently struggles on the outside. Ford's ceiling may be higher at guard, but his value could be greater at tackle if he hits. The redshirt junior should be one of the biggest risers of the pre-draft process and has a legitimate shot to be a first round pick.

Sounds a lot like what Hurney  liked about Otah( not saying he’s at all the same just that hurney seems to like a mauler at RT)a guy like that would give our line some nastiness back. I think no matter what Ron’s said so far we shouldn’t just assume that Moton isn’t being eyed for LT.  Matsko is one coach on this team i have a lot of faith in

Probably Cody Ford Round 1 OT

But other notable candidates Hollywood Brown Round 2-4 WR

Dru Samia - IOL

Ben Powers- IOL 

Bobby Evans- T

I had looked at both Samia and Powers as good day 3 guard picks. I honestly don't know anything about Evans except what I read on Waltersfootball, which is that he was their starting LT and projects as a LG in the NFL. Either of the 3 could be an upgrade over Van Roten.

      The Cavalry is Coming

      By Seltzer · Posted

      I'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries. Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available.  The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be. As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken. I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do. I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better.  I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel. The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do. I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker. So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November. We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction

      Better than a fragile starter, though
