2026 Draft: RT

Yep.

To where, 64? I wouldn't count on it. Anthony Belton (54) and Ozzy Trapilo (56) were both off the board by the end of the 2nd round last year which was all the starter potential OTs gone.

Yes, but I mean of all the players this board seems to like (me included) someone will fall. If all the ot’s are gone, the DE’s are gone, I could definitely see a run on CB’s in the 2nd… someone else has to fall.

Stukes at 94 or else.

or else Keionte Scott.

Ok, I could certainly live with that.

 

[manxman2601]

Here's a good question. Where would you place Josh Conerly and Aireontay Ersery in this class of potential first round OTs?



For me, Conerly ahead of Lomu, Ersery behind them all (I wasn 't a fan).

 

[mayoclinic]

I would roughly rank the tackles from 2025-2026 as follows:

1. Josh Simmons* (injury)
2. Will Campbell
3. Monroe Freeling
4. Armand Membou
5. Francis Mauigoa
6. Spencer Fano
7. Kelvin Banks
8. Caleb Lomu
9. Josh Conerly
10. Max Iheanachor
11. Aireontae Ersery
12. Blake Miller

No love for Ozzy?

You may still be down on Ersery but I'd debate having him and Warren/Loveland over Will and Treveyon.

 

[mayoclinic]

I loved Warren, but LT >>> TE. Ersery too slow-footed.

 

[manxman2601]

Field Yates says his hot take is that Monroe Freeling could be a top 10 pick.

But it's okay. Ryan Wilson at CBS gave us Mesidor.

 

[mayoclinic]

I said that Cleveland at #6 is Freeling's ceiling. Goosby probably would have landed there if he had declared.

I said months ago that Freeling was a 1st round tackle, and I ranked him ahead of Fano and Mauigoa as a pure tackle.

It was so obvious.

 

[manxman2601]

Dametrious Crownover of Texas A&M weighed in at a smidge under 6'7" and 331lbs. More intriguingly, he had 35.5" arms. A developmental day 3 guy for sure but it's tough to find those measurables.

 

[manxman2601]

Florida State's Micah Pettus is our very own Dell Pettus' brother.

 

[bakes781]

I loved Warren, but LT >>> TE. Ersery too slow-footed.

Obviously hind sight is 20/20 but it was pretty clear Ersery would have been there in the 2nd.

Ideal Moses replacement. Trading back from 1st might not be such a bad idea.

If we sign a FA edge then certainly. I'm in the position now though that I don't want to miss out on Mesidor or Parker as things stand.

However, Freeling, Blake Miller, Iheanachor, Mesidor or Parker are probably my favourites for that pick 32. Not in that order.

If Parker keeps this up he might not be anyway. But im all for trading that pick for Crosby anyway.
