I agree but even if he played enough.. He still might not be a LT as good as Neal, Ike, or Cross.. He still was a 3rd rounder while thess guys are top 10 worthy..

They were not wrong on this one. He will make a really good OG if we have a good LT beside him.

Pisses me off that Rhule didn't play the kid and now they have no idea what they got. Two days from the draft and they don't know if he can do the job or not. One pick to decide if they can afford to take a premier LT prospect and not gamble on the QB. 

Total lack of coaching foresight and planning. Don't understand the logic behind not playing him. Explain it to me because I don't get it.

 

I agree but passing on any of those 3 LTs because of brady is dumb he's good depth LT or a decent LG

Brady has good feet and is agile. He just has trouble anchoring against more powerful rushers. Camden said in his PC that he thought Brady had the potential to play all 5 spots (hence my earlier response). I don't think that means he can play them all well though. If they draft a LT early Brady will most likely transition to G or C. Cam Erving will probably be our backup swing tackle (if he does not start).

He's not a guard. He gets manhandled with power in the interior space. He's a tackle and should be kept as a swing tackle.

So I guess Brady could be a backup Swing Tackle and Erving could be a Backup (or starting?) Guard.

Really depends on where we go at 6. If we go LT, I see BC moving inside and Irving being the swing for this year only. Next year, BC will be the swing and Irving will be gone. 

If we go another route, BC and Irving will battle it out for LT and the other one will be backup, and we draft a guard or let Brown start at RG and see how it shakes out.

It would not surprise me if they move the kid to C this year and let him get reps there and learn the position. He seem smart enough and agile enough to be a good player there. I worry he's too light in the A$$ to play Guard.

this is my thought as well. I think he can be an above average center

So basically a complete waste of a pick.  We spent a third round pick on a guy that will never start for us.  What happened to the guard from Bama? Let me guess; he is still a fat slob.

i dont think thats a fair take. after the first and top half of second you aren't really expecting to draft impact starters. If BC ends up being a cheap 5 year plug and play OL that can step in and be average for 2-3 games a year for injuries and then backup as needed, that's a great 3rd round pick.

We don't know what he is thanks to Rhule. He should have been starting a couple weeks in. He looked better than Irving in preseason and he should have been given the reps. He wasn't. Then they tried to have him play 4 positions, not an easy task for anyone, let alone a rookie. 

His natural position is tackle. He may be able to learn to play guard or center but it's a different skill set as far as how to deal with rushers. We didn't really develop anyone last year. Campen is good. Give him a little time to work with the guy.

      Why? AI already taking jobs, running up power bills, drinking all the water and just bad for the environment but hey lest try to shoehorn another useless way to use it.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.
