I think they both have their pros and cons.
Slater is your "Technically sound with high quality fundamentals offensive tackle that may need to move inside depending on whether or not you believe arm length is the defining trait for success at OT" prospect and Sewell is your "physical freak, both athletically and regarding measurables, who is not as technically sound yet, but can be taught these things and become the best OT in the NFL" prospect.
I don't think we could go wrong with either one, honestly. I think the ceiling is higher on Sewell but the floor is higher with Slater. IF you go with Slater, you may be tempted to move down since he isn't being considered a top 5 prospect as of today, but who knows what the combine and workouts can do for his stock. We'll just have to see how the off season develops.
The nice thing is that, regardless of which one you draft, you're getting a quality Olineman that can start from day 1, even if it isn't definitely LT in the long run.
