unless Linderbaum falls to us or we grab Zion Johnson and he impresses big time early. There definitely won't be any OT's that 
will be available there that could start immediately. I really like Salyer in the 2nd if he is available is all I am saying. 

Played against top competition, is physical and plays with good technique, a pure Guard. This is what we need instead of drafting
OT's to play Guard like we have been doing lately.

What makes you think he is a “pure” guard? He did come into as a high school guard but couldn’t crack the lineup inside. He started the majority of his time at OT. Like Carman, he profiles at OG, but has some versatility across the entire line. In the below interview he even talks of OC has a potential fit. He lacks lateral mobility so I am not to convinced he is a wide zone fit. He is also not a natural knee-bender which concerns me. In a fair world, his playoff game against UM should have got him player off the game. He. Shut. Down. Hutchinson.
