    Didn't see the thread so thought I'd start it. Looks like an elite strength/human pick. Not what I was hoping for, but we "building the trenches b****es" is this draft's theme and I have to embrace that. :D

    Yeah its whatever at this point you're just taking swings.

    Oline sucked, so another swing at it I'm not mad at. Giving CJ more time should lead to less mistakes and less mistakes will lead to a lot more wins with our defense.

    I`ve never heard of these guys but I trust Nick and Demeco to pick the right guys with the right attitude and culture. Looks like this O Line is being transformed into a lunch bucket group who are mean and nasty..............I like it and dam it its about time the O Line took on the personality of Cole and Demeco

    With a pass protection grade that high could he possibly be a future RT?

    His athletic/movement skills are pretty average for a guard, much less relative to tackles. I believe he'd get destroyed by speed rushers out in space where he had to kick slide to keep up.

    I'd be amazed if he could pull it off.

    Let him stick with what he's good at. If he's a solid backup/potential starter at the 3 IOL positions then this is a great pick.
