Offensive Line at #13

[alteredst8]

Select more than one if you want

Next up will be OT, I am trying to see if we have a group of 2-4 OT’s we would take here at 13.

We need to assume the same as with WR’s. We have Penix and Nix on the board what OT are you taking over Penix or Nix if any? Select as many as you want.

 

[Nobodyinparticular]

Nope

 

[alteredst8]

Nope

I suspect plenty of people will feel that way. I would in all honesty want to take Bo here. I’m just getting things started. Hell I’d probably trade up to 4 for Bo but, that’s not the general consensus here or anywhere for that matter…

If the top 5 QBs were gone and Alt or Fashanu were still available, I would have to go OT (and probably look to move up for Nix later). If those two were gone, then would have to see if any of the big 3 WRs were available before considering Fuaga. If all of those guys (5 QBs, 3 OTs, 3 WRs) were picked by the time the draft reaches us at 13, I’d would probably try to move back a little and pick up an additional draft pick.

With that said, I think / hope that of the 11 players noted above that both Penix and Fuaga will still be available at 13. And in that case, my draft card will have M Penix as our pick at 13.

I suspect plenty of people will fill that way. I would in all honesty want to take Bo here. I’m just getting things started. Hell I’d probably trade up to 4 for Bo but, that’s not the general consensus here or anywhere for that matter…

If you told me that all 6 of the QBs were going to go 1-through-6 then yeah. I'd buy it.

I'm not quite as bullish on Bo as you are, but I'd still do what I need to do to walk out of the 1st round with him or one of the others.

I totally get @Nobodyinparticular POV and have been there for a decade.

Separating myself from the QBs and looking at the OL I really like the class. (Obviously I hope we take a QB tho)

There are 3-4 guys I would happily take at 13 to play RT.

I'm lower on Latham than most. I've just seen him have some ugly ass reps watching Alabama and I still have scar tissue from Alabama players.

Well I guess if we aren’t getting a top QB …

[Crossbones]

[Darkenblot]

This is actually a good thread since if Raiders are not taking a QB at 13, then I think the pick is an OT.

Right side of the line is a mess. Munford is not the answer. In addition, it fits that AP wants to build the trenches.

It's either QB or OT at #13 IMO.

If it's an OT, then the pick might be Taliese Fuaga from Oregon State. He is extremely aggressive with a nasty demeanor. Would fill an immediate need.

"Arguably the top run-blocking lineman in the draft, Fuaga is quick into contact and creates immediate displacement with his aggressive mentality and stiff, controlled hands.

Though he has functional athleticism and technique for the edges, his first reflex is to use his hands in pass pro, which can lead to him over- or under-setting against pass-rush counters (and highlights his lack of elite range and length)."

Some teams project him inside at guard, while others want to keep him at tackle.

There are 3-4 guys who would be great at RT. But is there any real difference between those guys and the guys who would be available at #44?

And agreed on Latham.

Regardless of what BR.Net wants I think OT /CB is definitely going to be the play. I’m fine either way it goes down. I just wanted to see who we @BR.Net would consider over say a Nix or Penix. As I stated I would go Nix, but I also believe he could be there much later in the draft as well. Nuts on the table I am not risking it I am taking my guy Nix

If we can't get a QB in that top spot I'm all in on fixing the OL long term. One of the nasty run blocking RTs would be great but I'd really prefer a trade back first.

I’ve got two that I think are just better than the rest along the OL.

Will be an option later as well as going with a few of each positions.

Really want to come away from this draft with strong day 1 starter candidates at OT and OG. Maybe I'm not giving Munford enough credit to perhaps take that RT spot, but either way we'd still need a good swing candidate. Glaring hole at OG.

Would not be shocked to see TY/AP value OL CB higher than QB unless the right one drops
