If we trade back Teven Jenkins is my top choice, i would take him even over  Darrissaw and Tucker. Dude is a mauler and can play either tackle spots i think his upside is on Sewells level. Trading back and taking jenkins i would have no problem with.

I am not sure Jenkins athletic profile projects well to the left side of the line but more so to the right side tackle slot where we presently  have Morton. 

With Jenkins mean streak, mauling style and pass protection, i could also see him as one whale of an offensive guard.

I think it does, and even so he can start out on the right side and then move to left eventually. He had no problems playing either one...outside of Sewell all these guys have same flaws in their profiles for playing left, they just need refinement. Also, i dont see it out the realm for them to flirt with moving Moton to the left side. He wants to be paid like a left tackle might as well move him over there. I think he will do fine.

I’m warming up to Slater. He just needs to be a definite LT. I don’t want us drafting a Guard at 8...

I am with you.  Most scouting reports see him more as a guard as they see him as a LT.  Do you want a good LT or a Great Guard or Center.

    • AT got what he deserved. Be gone and enjoy those 4 catches and the bench and your pay cut
    • we have been bad offensively basically every game Rico Dowdle hasn't gone full Tecmo Bowl Bo Jackson on folks.  
    • Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
