He never was one in college but why quibble about that, apparently we should just "book it".

He was the #1 at Georgia and Texas
He had 38 catches for less than 600 yards in 21 games at UGA.He was the #1 at Georgia and Texas
I can’t argue with your logic but I just couldn’t pass on Bowers. He would make this offense unstoppable.If I had to decide between Latham and Bowers, we'd have a new Tackle before the ESPN crew had even brought up the Dolphins graphic.

Ladd seemed to be banged up a lot in college. How many games did he miss? That doesn’t usually improve as prospects advance to the NFL. He is a little dude
Mitchell is a big boy. But even at his pro day he had several drops. Higher ceiling than Ladd, though.
Both seem a bit risky for the Fins at 21
That is my issue with Mitchell.Mitchell is very talented. There's no denying that. There's also no denying that his focus, effort, and RAC are particularly poor and explain a significant portion of the gap between his talent and production.
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.More on Latham... the knock on him in the press is the idea that as a really stout OT, his best position would be RT or even G (where some say he could be all-pro).
So he drops a bit with the LT bias of the NFL.
We have a left-handed QB... and most teams have a quality pass rusher on both sides now, so personally... I'm much less worried that he's thought of as being a RT first.
I lot of folks love the idea of Fautanu as a first year Guard, second year tackle... I do too, but I'd take Latham over Fautanu in a hot second.
If Latham drops... he's a gift, and he might.
Last thought... Zierlein, a guy that I respect a great deal, has Latham rated ahead of Alt.
