I might even put Bowers ahead of almost any OT that could be there. I like Bowers that much and think he could become 2nd option in the offense after Higgins departs. That would only be if they have a stopgap RT on the roster though like Trent Brown, obviously.
The Bowers thing is really tempting for me at #18 if he is there. Even if I assume Brown signs in FA, I have trouble doing it in a mock. Every time I try, all the tier 2 OTs are gone by 49 along with Sweat. I take WR3 and realize I am in Rd3 and didn't help the trenches. Blake Fisher & Jackson bail me out sometimes, but not often.
For me, I just think the trenches are priority #1. Even more so since we screwed the pooch on Reader.
