Simply cause the Draft is not deep at either of these positions. Very deep at WR and interior OL.
I don't think that they should be shelling out the largest LT contract IN HISTORY for Conklin which is what he'll command.
As much as I hate to say this and agree with Fred on this subject, Hart didn't have that bad of a year last year and he's only 24/25 years old.
He gave up 6 sacks (and, I'd love to see how many it would have been with Burrow back there. He's much more elusive than Dalton it seems.). Dalton has always been a deer in headlights anytime he gets pressure, and then he would just chuck it out of bounds. No more of that!!!
And, we've got Jonah on the other side which I'm sure he'll be more than adequate on.
If anything, we need a Left Guard.
Center and Right Guard are adequate right now as well if they had to start tomorrow.
According to draft gurus, the player to pick in the 30's range would be Ruiz C/G. I'm sorry, drafting for need over talent should be a thing of the past. I'd take best WR at #2 pick like Jefferson anyday over top Center/Guard Ruiz. You can find one comparable in Round 3/4/5 but you can't find a Jefferson at that range.
