He's got a lot of hype in the draft community. Will be at the Senior Bowl and I know people are anxious to see him

ill watch for him at the senior bowl but based off that tape alone - the competition will be interesting to see at the senior bowl but we already have one upside-heavy guard prospect on this team in eluemunor and i dont see us drafting another one who looks in my opinion miles worse
 
I'm just beginning to watch tackles.
What tackles ( presumably to be a RT with Ravens) would you guys take in the first round?
 
Rewatched the game vs Indy. I didn't realize but Austin Howard is actually a horrible run blocker. He had one nice block but apart from that he's allowed way too many plays to be blown up and too much penetration that prevented any space for Collins to work with.

I’m pretty sure he will be cut. He was necessary this year due to the injuries, but his cap space is needed and we can do better, much better.

If we took Orlando brown at 16 I'd be fuckin lit. Doubt we will, I have a mid first grade on him but the consensus seems to a disagree, not that the "consensus" means a damn thing but it's accurate sometimes.

Consensus is actually all over the place on Brown. Some have him as OT1, some as a day 2 guy. I'd be cool with Zeus at 16. He's a clear upgrade over Howard and he brings a mean streak. Hard woriking guy too.

He's a natural too, the Zeus genes just breed perfect OTs, the long ass arms, the strong base to anchor down, the quick feet. He's one of my sleepers for 16.

Honestly there's a good chance. There's not a lot of value at 16 (although that could change) so getting a cheaper and better RT sounds like a good safety valve.

I think we have options at OL so that’s why I don’t think we would use 16 there unless a special talent is there, exp: Nelson.

If we’re talking sleeper picks mine is

Nelson is a great pick at 16. I don't know much about the McGlitchy so I'll have to look into that.

It’s mcglinchey and he’s worth it at 16. Nelson is a steal at 16.
