I don't see much difference between Slater, Darrisaw, and several of the OT prospects that are rated slightly lower. Slater doesn't have the length/power and Darrisaw doesn't have the feet - potentially limiting the upside of both. Both could be relegated to guard.
Friermuth never looks like he's separating when I watch him - he's always wide open underneath after the defense is cleared out. Will that work against good defenses at the next level? Can't say that I see him having great upside.
With a top 5 pick, they should really "chase the fat tail" on someone with high upside in the first round, whether at 5 or after a trade, JMHO. Swing for the potential HOFers.
