Please participate in the poll, and forget about the draft position.

Whether we took one at 5, traded up into 9-13 range, or sat at 18....who would you want if we were able to select one of the "Big 4" offensive lineman this year?

As for me...I'd have to go with Andrew Thomas.

While I love the other guys for their own unique qualities (the polish and youth of Wills, or the freakish combine of Wirfs, or the beastly size of Becton)...I just love this guys mean/nasty attitude. I love that he is just RELENTLESS on the field. In one play I saw him instantly crush his mark, and then plow forward and take on 2 LB's at once. He is known as being probably the best run blocker in this draft.

Give me Andrew Thomas in a trade up to 9-13 range!! I don't think any of the Big 4 fall to 18...but we can dream.

Wirfs.
Athleticism, can play guard, right tackle, with left tackle measurables. Finished Iowa in 3 seasons. Nasty attitude.
I assume he practiced some against Epenesa who would have given Wirfs some seasoning.
I like Thomas as option 2 after Wirfs, unless we would end up with Tua then I would like Wills as his RT.
 
Early on both New York teams were said to be focusing on OT's. That was going to hurt Miami's chances at getting one of the OT's at #18. But with one week left before the draft there is some serious speculation, both New York teams are looking at other players and not OT's. Same for San Francisco who is said to be coveting one of the WR's, same for Las Vegas. So the cards may be lining up for Miami to perhaps get one of those four players, without having to trade up?

Boy that would be nice...
I'd like to come out of Rounds 1 and 2 with 5 potential plug and play starters, minus the QB who may sit a while.
 
if wills can play LT like he did RT it's a no-brainer. otherwise give me josh jones. want no part of thomas or wirfs.
 
Wills. Best technique and I’m with the trade up. If he gets in range

wirfs too but that would be guard ideal imo
 
Wills.

Future all pro at right tackle and may be able to play left tackle at that level as well.

Why no part of Thomas or Wirfs?

If we draft Tua, we don't need Wills to worry about LT, he would be playing RT
 
Trade down from our 5 to say 9 or 10 then take Thomas. This I would love!

my opinion on the tape that i watched is if wirfs and thomas don't get better at pass pro they're gonna be playing guard in the nfl. and they'll be damn good ones, but any first round pick i would use on OL has to be a pass blocking tackle. to me, wills, becton and jones are those guys.
 
I really think we are going to move up in the 7-9 range to take Wills if we get Tua at 5

I could totally see that. I've been thinking 9-13 this whole time, but you're right...if we have our heart set on combining Tua with his RT then we can't play any games...we have to jump the other teams rumored to want an OT.

Very good point.

Can you guys imagine that? Getting arguably the best QB, and arguably the best LT in the SAME draft? And is we assume Tua is selected at 5, then we won't have to give up TOO much to make it happen.

What would it take to trade to 7-9 from the 18th?

I feel like we'd have to go straight to 7. Isn't Arizona rumored to take an OT?
