Nah, I just recognize all the media, analysists, scouts, coaches, etc. that talk about this draft believe there is value to be held in round 2 and 3 for OL. It doesn't mean they are guaranteed starters or conversely a development player. All the info shared though suggests there are experienced players who can insta-start on the OL as rookies.

This team needs insta-starters in many positions. One first round pick wasn't fixing all roster problems. It's too early to gripe about passing on Sewell until after the draft is over. They might still draft a player who can start this upcoming season.
