OT prospect for the 1st round

Cyrus and Tiny Richardson have major, major flaws in pass blocking. The shitty part is that it will be difficult to fix. The problem is that neither gets wide enough on their first step kick out and be the second step they already have their shoulders turned trying to recover. Now, one may say...sounds easy they just need to set wider in their first step. Well, apparently both have cinderblocks tied to their feet because if they are hit with an inside move, they do not possess the foot speed to recover.

They said the same thing about DJ Fluker ,  that he would have to move from RT to RG but he has been having a excellent season.  Both Richardson and Cyrus are more athletic than Fluker and already proved that they can handle top pass rusher in the SEC. Their ability run block will also help them take their game to next level in the NFL.

Forget about what they say Sanjay, what do you think about the footwork?

Exactly.

Two guys that I can see having immediate impact like what Fluker did this year is Kouandjio and Richardson. Big, physically built guy that will be huge in the run game.

Auburn redshirt sophomore T Greg Robinson told ESPN's Joe Schad he received a first-round projection from the NFL Draft Advisory Board.

Robinson "doesn't want to hurt his teammates but said helping Mom is big factor," Schad added. The massive left tackle is a bully in the running game and has the athleticism and punch power to succeed in pass protection. He is a likely top-15 selection.

According to Dane Brugler, some teams will have Robinson ahead of Matthews

 

I can see that. Similar to Eric Fisher going ahead of Joeckel this past draft. Robinson has the athletic abilities that will make some scouts' jaws drop at the Combine. 

 

Like I've said before, as good as Joeckel, Matthews, and Ogbuehi are I'm just not seeing a lot of run blocking out of them. And I dont blame them but it's just the system at A&M. Also, these guys gets a damn lot of help from Manziel's ability to escape the pocket.

 

I'd go with Antonio Richardson over Cedric Ogbuehi if we wants to go that route.

Doing more research on Tiny Richardson and Im starting to like him more.

I was thinking that teams might not make a run at OL again this year, but after seeing some major players returning back to school (Hundley/Ifo), I think that this draft will again be OL heavy in the first. So, we better take one early if we go that route.

Richardson is a guy that should be available when our clock starts. A massive tackle that would fit our offensive scheme well since we're a run first team.

Cameron Erving and Cedric Ogbuehi are both returning to school. 

 

Antonio Richardson, La'el Collins, and Morgan Moses's stocks just skyrocketed. Hell this is going to even push Seantrel Henderson back up.

 

damn this sucks. I hate when athletes stay in school when they know damn well the coming to the league
