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.

      Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.

      I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.

      Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
