BOTTOM LINE
1) If we want a guard or center, we may have to pounce on him at 33, or perhaps even at 28. Bobby Esch has four of OT's including Carimi) and Pouncy all gone by the time we pick at 28, leaving us the choice among Hudson, Weisnewski and Love.
2) This shows how important it is to re-sign Mankins and Light.
COMMENTS
A) It is is said that this is a thin draft.
B) I have used Huddle's rankings.
C) If we want top OL's, I think that we will need to us a pick in the top 45.
Vollmer was available at 58 in a much better draft (and most under-rated Vollmer)
D) There seem to be two groups of available OL's
0 in the top 16
8 from 17 to 45
9 from 71-100
===============
GROUP OF 8
E) It seems that the OT's will be drafted higher than their value because of the scarcity.
F) Many of these don't seem to pass even the grossest initial screening test
G) Initially, I would want to pick from Carimi, Pouncey and Weisnewski.
