The Oracle
We need the best RT we can get to complete and repair our offensive line. One of these RT would give us a All Pro LT, a very good young center and a bookend RT. This will help in so many ways from the running game to the passing game. For instance, A Fasano who is a top 10 all around NFL TE will have the chance to run more routes. He only dropped one pass last season. Whoever is QB will have more time, the time to allow C Gates and C Clay to run deeper routes. Bush and Thomas will have someone to set the edge on running plays.
I know people want a WR etc now but you start with the OL so it can protect the rookie QB then after the QB is up to speed, start finding him more WRs etc.

Jonathan Martin, OT, Stanford
Height: 6-5. Weight: 312.
Projected 40 Time: 5.18.
Arm: 34.
Projected Round (2012): Top-25 Pick.
4/6/12: Martin was sick at the Combine, so he didn't work out. Martin had a solid performance at his pro day. The need for tackles could push him higher in the draft than many have him ranked.
Martin had a good overall season. He was a solid blocker in defending Andrew Luck's blind side, proving the signal-caller with quality pass protection all year. There were some games that Martin allowed some pressure, but he was reliable.
In 2011, Martin was a good run blocker, and the Cardinal ran behind him all year with some huge successes on the ground. Stanford totaled 446 yards on the ground against Washington and had many other big days running the ball.
Martin sets the edge well and is a good athlete to hit blocks on the second level. He had some penalty problems earlier in the season, but cleared that up. Martin is a better run-blocking franchise left tackle prospect than many former high first-rounders, but he will need to continue to improve his pass blocking for the NFL.
Bobby Massie, OT, Ole Miss
Height: 6-6. Weight: 316.
40 Time: 5.23.
Bench: 22. Arm: 35.
Projected Round (2012): 2.
4/24/12: Massie has quietly moved up draft boards. He had a decent Combine but reportedly had an impressive pro day. Some believe he could crack the first round but should go in the top half of the second round. It wouldn't be a complete shock if a team takes him over Adams.
Massie had some quality games this season, but did not have his best performance against Alabama. He did well in run blocking in 2011. Massie is too strong to be bull rushed, and he has the athletic ability to mirror well in pass blocking.
Massie is still a little raw and could use more experience and development. There are stretches where he simply overwhelms defenders. Massie looks like he is a future starter at right tackle in the NFL.
There is also Guard Cordy Glenn , this depends on what we think about Murtha, Garner, Hicks etc. Without completing our OL, draft playmakers on offense are a semi waste of time. Plus lineman last longer. We are rebuilding here folks.
Cordy Glenn, G/OT, Georgia
Height: 6-5. Weight: 345.
40 Time: 5.15. 10-Yd Split: 1.76.
Bench: 31.
Arm: 35 3/4. Hand: 10.
Projected Round (2012): 1-2.
4/24/12: At the Combine, Glenn showed off excellent speed with a surprisingly fast 40 time for such a large man. His only real flaw is his feet, but he has the potential to improve on that in the NFL. Some teams will consider keeping him at tackle in the NFL. After a rough first day at the Senior Bowl, Glenn played very well in the remaining practices and in the actual game.
As a senior, Glenn was a starter at left tackle. In many games in 2011, he was dominant. Glenn has the power, balance and long arms to make him a well-rounded blocker. He had no problem opening holes in the ground game, and generally was a good pass protector.
BtWay, we gave up 52 sacks, 95 QB hits and a LOT of hurries last season.
All of the teams in our division went pass rush early. The Bills getting FA pass rushers Mario Williams and Mike Anderson.
And the Jets drafted pass rusher DE Quinton Coples.
The Patriots drafted two pass rushers in DE Chandler Jones and 6'2" 265 ILB Donta Hightower.
We are in a defensive line vs offensive line arms race that we are losing and without improvement to our OL we could could suffer though a season with 55 or more sacks 2012.
We need to keep up with the teams in our division.
