I like Morgan a great deal... he's third on my list of first year Guard, second year Tackles. Sumataia is 4th there.How do you feel about Morgan? I really liked what I saw from his video. I'm surprised that @j-off-her-doll isn't higher on him. My perfect player for Miami at 21 would be Troy Fautanu. I think he would plug right in at guard as a rookie and then make an easy transition to left tackle when Armstead retires. If I had to rate the tackles, I would go 1. Fashanu 2. Alt 3. Fautanu 4. Latham 5. Fuaga 6. Morgan 7. Guyton 8. Mims. I don't like Barton as a tackle and wasn't impressed with Suamataia either.
I think both are 'safe' picks... solid, well tutored players who, at worst, will end up as starting Guards.
Morgan, I think, was headed to being a 1st round pick last year, then tore his ACL late... but came back and played anyway. Tough guy. I think he may end up better than the more highly touted 'athletes'.
Athletes being Mims and Guyton. These two are huge, athletic... and with limited experience. Plus, since both are so freaking tall, they are boom or bust at Tackle. They won't play anywhere else on the line.
I won't cry if we draft Mims or Guyton, because the team will have talked with these two and will have an idea if they are smart enough to grasp the things that they don't do intuitively yet.
But both are definitely projects... how's your capacity for risk? Bechton was a project too...
