Get a solid Tackle and solid Guard vs a Bad Tackle and Mediocre to Average Guard?
Even if you don't like Saffold, then pick another free agent for Option B. The point is you have the chance to get 1 Good player vs 2 mediocre to average players.
You don't even know if you can get your #1 T at #11. We could possibly be looking at our 3rd or even 4th best T prospect there. Do you really want to be in a position where you have to pass on a Devin White, Clellen Farrell, Quentin Williams, TJ Hockenson, Kyler Murray, or Dwayne Haskins that falls to you because you HAVE to take Jawaan Taylor?
To be clear, I have no issue taking a T at #11 as long as it's a reasonable value. However, setting ourselves up for "T or bust in the 1st" isn't a good way to do business.
