Whether that is Sewell or another guy. The thing about Sewell is he is a great run blocker with great feet. I think he would be a
great Guard if Reiff or Sewell stay at the bookends for Sewell's rookie year.
Would you take o-linemen off your board if they weren't versatile?
I think one of the things driving my draft thinking is that at WR we are relatively set with Higgins and Boyd and need to draft a certain type of WR (an outside receiver with speed). That limits our choices at WR whereas at O-line we're only really set with Jonah so that we can easily find a place for pretty much anyone we draft.

I know T is more valuable than G but I'm not sure about a draft strategy of taking a developmental player in the 2nd before returning to grab the starter in the 3rd. I think a coach in the hot seat like Zac who needs to win this season would be even less keen on it.
38 also seems a little high for him. I know he tested really well but I'm seeing him go in the 4th or 5th rounds in the mocks I do - I expect him to go higher than that and teams can seemingly reach for tackles but 38 seems very punchy for him.
