How would you have wanted the draft to go if the McCarron deal had not washed out and we had the third pick in both the second and third round?
Can only take players available at each spot
1-21
2-35
2-46
3-67
3-77
3a-100
4-112
5-151
5-158
5-170
With hindsight, and given my O-line rants,
I would do the following:2nd round - 35 - Braden Smith GUARD/Tackle Auburn 6 foot 6 315 pounds
3rd round - 67 - Orlando Brown Jr RIGHT TACKLE Oklahoma 6 foot 8 345 pounds
* This would bring New faces to compete at every O-line spot except for Clint Boling's Left Guard spot.
New faces at or competing at LT - Glenn, C - Price, RG - Braden Smith, RT - Orlando Brown Jr
The 4 weak O-line spots we had in 2017 would all have either a new starter (Glenn/Price) -or- have serious competition added.
Westerman and Fisher would have to hold off Braden Smith and Orlando Brown Jr both in the short term and over time which may end up being very difficult for them to do.
