You take Sewell. It’ll be a make it or break it year for Teddy with a legit offensive line, the best RB in football and even if we don’t bring Samuel back we have two of the better receivers in the game coming back. Maybe with more consistency on the left side Teddy would take more chances. If not, we lose a lot again and will be around to pick the #3 QB of the next class.

It would be a good problem to have. If Cincy has 4 would they offer some sweet draft capital to trade up one spot?

I don't think they would.  I would certainly love if they did in that situation.  It would be basically paying us to not draft Sewell who is their clear top target.  Unfortunately, our need for a QB is pretty darn clear at this point, so it seems likely Cincy would just stand pat.

If we draft Sewell, Cincy's pick becomes more valuable to lower teams who want a QB.  If we draft a QB, Cincy gets their LT.  No motivation for them to move really.

Never bank on who may be there or a trade. Get who you want without mortgaging more than necessary.

I’d go Wilson easy. Wasn’t last year the generational can’t miss on the top LT prospect draft? Becton, Wirfs, Wills, etc? I feel like I hear that every draft.

Every year is some 'generational' talent.. draft jargon..

If you have the chance to draft a franchise QB without having to give up draft picks you take it 10/10 times. Trent Scott has played LT the majority of the season for us and we have still had a decent line and have been in almost every game that we have lost. QB is the deciding factor on winning or not in the NFL.

This is a great question, because Sewell could very well be the best player in this draft. 

I still think you go with whichever QB they like best. Likely Lance or Wilson. 

Sewell is a great prospect but Lawrence is the best player in the draft.

That said I’d go QB. Having Sewell at LT doesn’t make Teddy a better QB. Maybe he’s sacked a little less but it doesn’t make his ducks to Moore go faster and more accurate. Why keep wasting our talented players with a mediocre QB?

Groom a QB and if you don’t want to save $8M on Teddy, let him get whacked more, keep losing close games and get a LT next year. Extend Moton and go G on day 2 and day 3. We’ve at least got 1 5th comp, so draft 3 potential G/Cs to groom instead of pulling UDFAs and hope we get a Norwell. Add some other draft pieces and live through another Teddy suck year and get ready for prime time starting 2022.

      Draft Week Rumors, Leaks and Media Draftniks Final Mocks

      Hard to interpret some of Brugler's opinions. Capable of running a robust route tree sounds like a lazy thing to say - I'm sure just about every slot TE is capable of running a full route tree... I want to know if he is currently able to (which from tape leads me to a no). Granted, it's pretty common for most receivers/TE not having a full route tree developed before they get drafted. Agility/acceleration after the catch hasn't shown up on his tape (at least his Oregon tape) for those dig/out breaking routes while it has for the seam and slant routes. Agree he has a good physical build and he is very good running seam routes. His build definitely helps him to shield defenders and create a large target point for the QB. Drops were a concern, but it could be focus drops just like T-Mac was/is prone to. Run blocking is an accurate statement, but again, we have only seen him run block in the slot/backfield - inline blocking is a whole different animal. With his athleticism, he definitely has a high ceiling. I just think he also has a low floor and don't like taking that big of a risk on a mid 1st rounder. I think this is a deep TE draft and would much rather target one in the 3rd or later. He's very boom or bust to me - bust in terms of being worth a 1st round pick, not an out of the NFL in a few years type bust. I feel like he gives me Evan Engram vibes. Not saying that Evan Engram was/is a bad NFL player, just that most people would agree he shouldn't have been drafted in the 1st.

      I mean I would love 6-1. It’s funny the hurricanes usually dominate the first game and win by three or four goals. But keep the second game close. It would be nice if it’s the reverse of that tonight.

      Brugler has him as TE1 and going to the Ravens in the first.  Apparently Sadiq's football IQ is pretty high (interviewed very well).  Also he was an WR and CB in high school.  This is why I always thought his route running was solid.  I'm sure it needs some polishing but for a TE it's pretty good. nfl.com Built like a bodyguard with a compact, well-defined frame. Capable of running a robust route tree. Gets in and out of breaks with good snap and separation. Vandalizes defensive seams with impunity against man coverage. Survives collisions with catches thanks to his hand strength. Shows off agility and acceleration after the catch. Fits up run blocks with proper positioning and base width. Grips and presses forward with moving feet to stay connected. -Again I don't know if we should take him but if he goes to the right team he could become a scary weapon at the next level.  I just like him as a prospect.
