Maybe we can call the NFL teams that drafted those 3rd round lineman and see if any of them would trade the player they took for either TJ Johnson or Trey Hopkins straight up. Maybe there will be a taker.
May find that most or all of those teams wouldn't trade the guy they took in round 3 for both our guys. (TJ/Trey)
Maybe you can call the Jacksonville Jaguars and ask if they would trade '14 third round pick OG Brandon Thomas for Johnson or Hopkins.
You might find their answer quite amazing. Thomas never played a single NFL game, and despite being healthy enough to make practice squads he has not made an active NFL roster since 2014.
Once players are in the NFL no one cares where they were drafted, and third round picks are not guaranteed to be better than some of the players we already have on our roster.
