I do not think there is ANY way we do not leave this draft with one of these guys. With that said, who do you guys think is gonna have the best career in the NFL? 

 

Cyrus Kouandijo 6'7 322

 

 

Probably the most impressive of the bunch physically. Very quick for his size. I am just worried about the knee. Would really suck if he had a short career and became a wasted pick. 

 

 

Morgan Moses 6'6 314

 

 

I am concerned about his foot speed. Doesn't seem to be on the same level as the other guys in this group. Seems like a better RT to me, but then that brings up concerns with his run blocking. 

 

Antonio Tiny Richardson 6'6 336

 

 

Impressive physically. Very quick feet for his size. My concern is with his run blocking. He wiffs on a good number of blocks from the cut ups I've seen. 

 

Billy Turner 6'5 315

 

 

Probably the quickest feet out of all these guys. A little light on the lower body but as a LT I don't think that is a huge concern. 

 

 

As for who I like the best, it's hard to say. Id like Cyrus if not for the knee concerns. The only one I have question marks playing LT is Moses.

I like Flemming in the 3rd as our new RT. Dude is big and power with solid foot speed. 

 

My ideal draft would look like this. 

 

1st - Honestly don't know what direction to go here. 

 

2nd - One of Cyrus, Richardson, Turner

 

3rd - Cameron Flemming

 

That would shore up our OL going forward imo.

Ideal draft with no idea who you want in the first? Seems odd.

Finally, a decent discussion topic!

 

For me, if we're looking at OL at 28, I'm thinking Morgan Moses.  I think he has the better ability to come in and play LT right away.  Richardson has the ability, but will his knees push him down as well.  Speaking of knee trouble, Kouandjio has the knee problems and issues with speed rushers.  I think that makes him a better RT at this point.

 

For the rest of the draft, there are a lot of good players who can probably come in and play either spot, given reasonable expectations of rookie OL.  It would start ugly, but could get better throughout the season.  I think we can definitely come out of the draft with two solid OL upgrades/starters if we make it a priority.

You forgot the actual person that we will pick:

 

 

JaWuan James.

Do you not see his foot speed? It is not on the level of the other guys I mentioned. Go and watch his cut up and compare it to the other guys. It is visibly slower. To be a great LT you got to have pretty good foot speed. 

 

I am not sure about Moses in that regard.

      BREAKING!!! Panthers signing Packers LT Rasheed Walker

      By frankw · Posted

      The OL has certainly been better than the trainwreck it was three or four years ago. As far as competitiveness let's apply some realism and clarity here. Quite a bit of the competitiveness in 2025 came from the defensive side of the ball which gave up the most points in league history the year before and was one of the bottom 5 units in terms of salary cap allocation for 2025 while the OL was top 3. We had the 26th passing offense last year. And if not for a herculean couple of games from Rico Dowdle we don't back our way into the division title or make the playoffs because we went 4-6 in our final ten games including being swept by the Saints who were starting a rookie 2nd round pick most of us mercilessly mocked when they selected him. In conclusion yes we've seen a difference. The question now is will the investment pay off the way we want. But the only way that happens is if we field a top 15 offense. If we can't even crack the top 20 then there need to be some very warm seats across the board. And I would hope just about anyone here should agree with that.

      These Spurs are lowkey loaded.  If healthy, they could win it all this year (#2 in the West right now). I still think we’ve gotta keep Kalk on Wemby; he’s not getting completely dominated like every other NBA center.

      Am I the only one who doesn't understand this fan bases infatuation with adding a high end TE? Especially when we have some bigger bodies in T-Mac and Coker who can slide into the slot at times and provide the big dependable target over the middle that most teams use their TE for. I mean, sure, it would be nice to have one of those elite TE's, but I feel like that's a position your better off going cheap with a committee who each bring something different to the table while spending our cap room on the more important positions. I like the potential we saw from Evans this year, Sanders could be a best if he can stay healthy, and Tremble has improved as well.  Just feels like spending high draft picks or cap space on other needs and more important positions is a better use of our resources than splashing on a TE in the draft or FA. Are those guys on the level of the Bowers or McBride's of the world?  Of course not, but we also are paying a fraction of the cost on our TE room than they are, and we're able to use that money for other needs.
