NFL is a passing league where Alt and Fashanu as pass protecting Left Tackles have the higher upside. Lance also explained in a podcast somewhere he prefers Latham and Fuaga's heavy hand style over Alt and Fashanu more passive hands in pass protection. NFL has been leaning toward independent hands since mid 2000 teens though.
The RB group is gonna be about who do you like for your offense because there isn't a standout guy. I can see rhe Bengals doubling down at TE or RB. (I said the same thing last year too and we got 1 RB.. It did show the weakness of thr groups though in 2023.)
Jer'zhan Newton had foot surgery and will miss rhe combine and maybe his Pro Day which is reflecting on thr big boards he's still DT 1A.
Thr TE group is so bad this year Theo Johnson is TE3 in some places over Cade Stover.
Next years TE group looks pretty bleak too.
