In THIS specific draft
Chase >>>>>>>>>>>> 2nd round WR
Sewell > 2nd round OL
The team needs both.
Unfortunately, Sewell has been drummed up to mythical proportions by not playing. My buddy was banging a drum for him the other day and I asked him how big he thought Sewell was. His answer: 6'6" 350lbs. He was in shock when I told him 6'4" 330 and his other measurables put him at the bottom 4 of the top 24 rated NFL OTs. No OT with similar measurables (if I recall the stat correctly) ranked in the top 20 NFL OTs in recent years.
Recent NFL scout and talent evaluators said Sewell would have been the FOURTH....let me repeat.... 4th OT taken if he was able to come out after last season. He isn't some unbelievable talent. Jamaar Chase, even in last years loaded WR draft, would have been #1 WR taken. He is one of the highest rated WR prospects in 10 years. If not THE highest.
Chase at 5 and then O-line at 2 AND 3 (if talent is there) makes a ton of sense. They could go Chase at O line at 2 & 4 or 3 & 4 and STILL get guys rated as starters.
Oy. Every single thread...
