I know this, because I was calling for him all pre draft and was told that there was 0 chance we would have a shot at him. 

I even wanted us to go back to back OG in that draft and take Glenn with our 2nd 1st round pick.

As important as OG is, most don't go in the top 10.  As hard as this is to believe now, but we might have a shot at Nelson.  I can also see McGlinchey going before Nelson.  However you are right that Hernandez may not make it to us in round 2 and he actually may be our 1st round pick.  I don't disagree on the likely hood of where a player will be picked, I was just reminding people that slides do happen and not to be surprised if a player that was a consensus top 10 pick is there at 46 as it happens every year.

Slides do happen, but don't see it in this case from a purely numbers standpoint. Lineman will go, history has shown us at least 5 lineman will be drafted in the first round there is Nelson then what? Maybe McGLinchey/Miller maybe a Center or two, but stats overwhelmingly point to Hernandez going in the 1st. The lack of tackle talent in this draft is what makes me feel pretty strong about this.
