The “Deep OT class” may not be as deep at LT in scouts eyes

Interesting to hear.  Considering the depth that has been touted about this OT class.

You only care about depth if you're picking late in the rounds, if not, you're sitting pretty!

Huh? The talent doesn't reset every round.

[Captain Morgan 20,273]

oh man, if this is true, it is....unsettling.

Excellent chance we'd get Slater, but we seem to want to trade back 5 or 6 spots and get a CB.

 

Which would be great, and we should be able to get an extra second and find excellent value, probably 3 starters in the first two rounds.

But we still won't have a LT.  For the 7th year in a row.

Move Moton to left tackle and draft a guy early to play right. Moton has way more potential to succeed there over anybody we could draft outside the top 2 guys.

Maybe to you it does, but when I'm setting my board, I'm only concerned about elite talent at 8.

Well I think that helps us get Eichenburg. Brown is a beast and the Chiefs are desperate for OL help. I mocked KC taking him at 31.

We floated every possible scenario in that press conference - I wouldn't read too much into it.

This increases Slater's value--hard to imagine more drama than this draft....I have to pee.

I know right.  I feel like last year's draft was pretty predictable.  It was pretty much pre-ordained that we were going to take Brown or Simmons.  This year, who the hell knows.  We might end up with a QB!

Well yeah every scout isn’t going to agree...

[Basbear 2,626]

I agree, i asked shaqfan about how many day 1 LT starters are there in this draft. Not many no matter who you ask, the only spot you can get one is at 8. Panthers need one too, well imo they do.

[bobcat91 855]

Thats why you don't play games. Get your LT for ten years at 8, CB/S in the second and a G in the 3rd

The pre-draft takes are so bad, so often.  Kiper said he would retire if Clausen wasn’t a good professional QB.
