Top 5 OL in the draft

[Travis34]

Nah if we sign thuney I probably put bredeson on the burner til he gets to be an obvious eye sore still on the board. I don’t draft him and put him at rg. I probably pivot to more of a developmental type further down the board.

But bredeson might be on there a little longer than expected anyways cause the athletes gonna test very average. But I like his compete I like his awareness and I like his toughness.

I think I'd rather have a lineman with high awareness & average tools than vice versa. Seems we've seen enough of that lately

 

[hoops]

Developmental tackle im interested in is Alex Taylor. He’s high cut and he’s raw and he needs sand in the pants but he’s got vines for arms and plus feet.

 

[DOLFANMIKE]

Got this from Miller's way too early board. Not sure if helps but its a nice comprehensive list of what's out there. Most likely could have just gave you what you asked for but where's the fun in that? This is Finheaven!!! Lets go bananas!!! This list obviously subject to change and may actually be a little behind the current status of positional rankings. Jedrick Wills not listed under top ten tackles maybe an oversight or possibly he hadn't declared at that point. Who knows?

As for Centers, without getting too specific ... I coached Jake Hansen. I know him well. He's ok (likely to have a pro career) but no way #3 in that pool. His feet are a problem, as is playing too high. His rep for having a "mean streak" is hyped by him using it on lower competition and then disappearing against real competitors.

I’m not overdrafting a center either in this class and I think there’s a lot of candidates for it.

The Center position is thinning out quickly. Humphrey went back to school
Biadasz looks shaky. Maybe injury flag.
Harris got his ass handed.
Temple kid? Who watched Temple games?
LSU Cushenberry?

I think there’s strong potential for no center to go top 50 in this class

I agree and hopefully we don’t reach.
I see late Rd 3 as sweet spot for some interior OL help. I would trade into top 100 for IOL- targeting Brendeson and Cushenberry.

Josh Jones may well be the best OT in this class, tbh. I think the kid is vastly underated and dominated at the senior bowl, I would take him at 18 in a heart beat.

Cush and Hennesey are legit in my view, would love to snag either one of those, I'm losing a littlle love for Badiasz and Harris.

 

[Kamelion4291]

I really, really want to get a good center in this draft.

Yeah same here. Not many options IMO. Not many in FA either but we see.
