Chase v Sewell

[leonardfan40]

Chase is the better player and safer prospect.
Sewell is a huge talent but he’s been a little overhyped the last 2 years. He’s arguably the best OL prospect in this draft but he’s far from perfect. He’s not a sure fire Munoz like some seem to believe. He’s not a once in a lifetime player, there have been several better OL prospects over the last 5 years. He’s not a sure fire GOAT. Should be a very good starter and could be amazing but could bust too just like any prospect.

If both are on the board you take the better player. Especially this draft where there will be a handful of very good linemen available in round 2 that should be able to start and upgrade our line on day one.
Chase+round 2 OL is a much greater value than Sewell and whatever WR is left in round 2.

I understand why many people want Sewell. Early in the process I was on that train too but the more you look at these two guys and the draft as a whole there is a pretty clear path that should produce the best results. I know our o line sucks and has for years. I’d love to see it addressed but we don’t have to reach when we also have a clear need at WR and a stud prospect who may be available at 5 for us to steal.
