If you were hoping for Armstead or another FA LT, Jonathan Alexander says slow down

This also doesn't sound like a team looking at LT at pick 6. Could be a smokescreen, I guess, or maybe they are looking at QB at 6.

Those kinds of players want to play on teams that have quarterbacks

I'd rather sign Bozeman at center to solidify the entire right side of the line, and draft guys to compete. Armstead is good, but at his cost and his age, he is more like a piece you add to a roster that is looking for a big push.

[TheCasillas]

yeah, we are back into speculation mode. I dont think we freed up that cap space to just free it up. We are going to have to wait and see. I think we all have a wish list.... Bozeman is my top priority of those who remain.

I'd lean towards Tretter if I'm accurate in my understanding that he wouldn't figure into the comp pick formula.

I think since the LS we picked in round 6 last year didn't work out we'll pick a LS with the #6 pick overall...that or a CB.

I would rather see us add IOL upgrades, I personally like what I saw from Brady at LT. I think he only gets better with more opportunity and more consistent OL play. 

I think the ship has sailed on trading for a QB, trading for a lesser QB than what we targeted last year landed us Darnold. Let's avoid that mistake. 

Picks for Jimmy G who couldn't get it done on a STACKED San Francisco roster IS NOT the answer, neither is Baker, and neither is a guy like Minshew.

I understand, but Bozeman is younger and better. If I'm looking at solidifying the line for the next 5 years vs. a possible 4th round comp pick? Give me the solid OL every time.

NOW they feel like Christensen is a LT? Did his arms finally grow 0.05 of an inch? Jesus Christ the goal line keeps moving for this team.

[Carl Spackler]

I would assume no good player will sign here, and no good player will be drafted. Generally it's a safe assumption that is rarely, RARELY challenged during this administration.

[Mr. Scot]

Can't help feeling if they stick with Christensen at left tackle, #6 is Kenny Pickett.

I think Rhule was told to let the arm thing go. He wants to 3-D print what each position player should look like and it doesn't work like that.

[XClown1986]

Honestly it sounds like we are preparing to trade down. We want our options open so that we aren't tied to any one position.
