I think Mike Brown is ok (and probably would encourage) spending the draft capital on this because there is no way in hell he's paying a top tier OG $13 million per year or a top tier C $8 million per year.  This way, can get top tier prospects and pay them a fraction of what an experienced guy will get.

I actually think they draft 2 interior lineman in the first 2 days (rounds 1-3) as they have no starter at C and they really have no proven guy at RG either.  Granted, we've seen flashes, but we've also seen how hard it is for Hopkins to stay healthy for a year.

Oh yeah, they have 4 picks in that range... I can see that happening, but not a back-to-back interior line picks.
