Don't forget Daniel Faalele. Super intriguing prospect. 6'9" 400 pounds is insane. Very raw former Australian rugby player but the physical talent is undeniable.

Jeez that guy is huge! Don't know if he can make it as a tackle, but man, put him at left guard and just let him eat up space and punish DTs in the run game.

It's gonna be really interesting to watch. A lot of NFL teams are going to be very nervous about both his newness to football and lack of comparables. I mean, the NFL is a league of freakishly huge humans but this dude takes that to a new level.

If he were to be able to perform at the Efe Obada level, then you could call it a success and a major bonus to the line. Honestly, if he was still sitting out there in the third round you'd be crazy not to take him. If nothing else, just to make him play nose tackle on Special Teams. That wingspan would take out any 50+ yard attempt.

The biggest difference is that OL don't rotate. You don't have situational and/or rotational OL. You just have starters and reserves

Darrisaw will go in the 1st

Walker Little may be around with our pick in the 3rd, but dont think I want him playing LT for us.  Some in the scouting community feel like he may transition to OG.

 

 

Other guys who I think who I see as guys who will be on range for our 2nd pick.

Jalen Mayfield (Michigan)

Alex Leatherwood (Alabama)

Liam Eichenberg (Notre Dame)

Daniel Faalele (Minnesota)

Jackson Carman (Clemson)

 

Also, I wouldnt be so locked that we Draft a OT rd 2 just because we went QB rd 1.   Id expect that QB to sit next year behind Teddy reguardless.  This makes it easier to go BPA among out high needs list.

Funny how your opinion changes based on the sites that you tend to visit---

I see Walker Little as a late first, early second.  His soph film is solid---not sure what others are seeing about G.

I have seen Darrisaw in the middle of round 1, but when I watched a video of VT game, I did not see first round.  Others do...

Leatherwood is more of a finesse player that will be strong vs pass rush, weaker in run game.  I can live with it.  When I watched him, I saw good feet and balance, and a bit of a nasty streak.

Eichenberg is one of my favorites in the second round.  He is not great at any one thing; solid across the board and his technique is good.  ND OL are getting like Wisconsin OL--worth the investment.

Mayfield has been a RT--not sure how he will handle the left side.  Good RT though. 

Carmen and Slater have been listed as a G. I see it with Carmen, not so much with Slater.  I see LT all over Slater--and a good one. I have read the statements about him being a G, but I disagree, fwiw.

And I would say this--do not go to sleep on Penn State's R. Walker.  He could be the second best OT in the draft.

The whole league needs OL, remember the Failcons drafting Lindstrom and passing on Burns(thanks!!!). Just at place where the colleges have not been able to improve the OLs much.

 

I do hold hope to this idea that some QB desperate team will give the Beaguals a offer they can not refuse, leaving panthers with Sewell for the taking. Its possible given they use a 1st for a LT in 2018. Let me have my dream!!

      Yeah, that fits with our current HC and his nonsense. IDGAF about the religiosity BS if it isn't rooted in some sort of scammy nonsense(see Rhule, Matt). Canales does smell like that kind of guy.

      I think Bryce is here because of Morgan and Tepper. Morgan took the job under the condition that Bryce was the guy.  If than was the genius that he's been made out to be after this offseason, then nothing with Bryce, Dalton and Plummer makes any sense unless it was being directed from elsewhere. Tepper has also made it known publicly that he was throught the building giving his opinion vocally even though he's backed out of day to day operations, which is another way of saying, listen to what I'm saying or else.  Dalton was washed after last year. In no world did it make any sense to give him a 1 year contract, much less a 2 year. And Plummer, he was so bad last year he didn't belong anywhere near a football field again but we brought him back one more time. Then we bring in Hooker and White and let the trade deadline go by with QB play that is not only abysmal, but that actually below backup level in many statistical categories.  The only logical conclusion I can draw is Bryce was protected this season from any competition at all and Dalton was kept to be backup because he could never be a threat based on last year's play, which was confirmed by this year's play.  Everything that has been done from the trade, drafting Bryce, Mingo, Brooks, Sanders, Lewis, Corbitt, Hunt, Moton extension, Mitchell, Etienne, XL, TMac, all of it, has been to reinforce, double, triple, quadruple down on a guy who's first year performance, if judged in a vacuum, would have gotten him cut from most NFL squads based on mechanics alone.  Frank saw it and it's why he was fired. He didn't want him and didn't even try to build a game plan around him. Canales can't build a game plan around him. Defenses stack 8 or 9 in the box and dare him to throw and Sunday is what we got.  This is Tepper's ego in full force. It's the only true explanation for what we've seen the past 3 years. This is a man who refuses to admit he was wrong.

      There are 5 tiers of NFL QBs

      Small sample size since I'm pretty sure this is from this year. Burrow wasn't looking phenomenal in his only full game but I'm sure would have bounced back.
