There's this myth that you can just draft a T in 2 or 3 and plug them in at RT and it will be this dramatic instant upgrade from Bobby Hart.  Last year, the average PFF grade for #2-6 T's taken was 59 with a high of like 63.

I'm not saying don't draft a T, but that's a move that will pay off a couple of years down the road.  You're very lucky if it pays immediate dividends.

Peters buys you a year or two of solid play to develop young T's.  He also provides a huge injection of veteran leadership, which this unit sorely lacks.  Would you rather Williams have Jason Peters or Bobby Hart as his mentor?  

I agree with you; 100%, actually.

My post was more towards the people saying, "move Jonah to RT or LG."

Like WTF are you doing? You drafted the *BEST* LT in college, who has had a year to heal, bulk up AND learn the system even better, but you want to move him somewhere else?

Absolutely ass-backwards and stupid logic.
