I think Nijman is the LT plan as of now with a chance at 19 if the draft falls our way. I’d like Jenkins at center 

We need to nail the left tackle whether through draft or signing, we cannot afford for Bryce to regress.

Luckily they are 3 or 4 good zone blocking centers in this draft, so I think we can potentially find a starter in the third or fourth round.

Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if Samac ends up starting. Hes spent a year with us and it’s possible our staff feels like he can be a decent starter. We wouldn’t have let Mays go if we didn’t feel confident in replacing him. I feel we could also find some cheap vets or draft a center.

 

Tackle is the bigger issue. We don’t know if Icky will even come back to be a starting level tackle. Moton is 31 and we need his replacement as well. Drafting a tackle in the first would be the best option. We also need some depth if one gets injured. Yijman is a great option and so is BC but we don’t know when he’ll be back

I will word that a little differently. We can’t afford him the easy excuse of a shambolic OL, if he does regress. We need to have that squared away. 
 

Any regression going on, if any, needs to clearly be in his area of responsibility. This is the last chance for gas exit. We can’t afford being fooled and stuck like Tua or Murray or any of those scenes.
