Drafting olinemen is mostly about talent development, the only plug and play tackles go in the top 15, everyone else has to be coached up and taught the position because the college game doesn't develop them.


It's also why it's way too early to give up on Kingsley, they drafted him knowing he was physically talented, but raw.

He's like literally the only one that has panned out. One of how many? Do I really need to make a list?

Harrison is a guy who caused me to just give up on evaluating OL.

I'm wrong. Whatever I think, it's wrong.

Because Harrison being mediocre to bad just makes zero sense to me. He seemed like SUCH an easy fit to be no worse than an average starting LT in the league.

I know nothing. I very clearly have no damn idea what I'm looking at with OL. And my excitement over Jordan Morgan and Kingsley this year further reinforced that.

It started to get more and more obvious as I kept doing the CP Mock Draft and got massacred on my score every time I took an OL and he went 4 rounds later than I expected. But then it's been confirmed by the fact that the guys I like who DID go early also ended up sucking.

I don't understand OL evaluation at all.

We are not expending draft capital to move up and take a gamble on a LT. We have picked LT projects twice recently. Veach is not picking another LT project.

Those picks in the bottom of the 2nd and top of the 3rd are very valuable to us. You can get quality starters at S/CB/DE/DT/O-line with those picks. We are going to lose at least 2 starters in those areas due to cap space and contracts. We need a "grunt" draft. Replenish the core.

Darrisaw is good but it's hard to say he panned out because he is ALWAYS hurt.

His games played goes 12, 14, 15, 7 and he is always dealing with some type of nagging injury.

We should trade every skill player at CB and WR after their contract year. My god do these guys crash hard.

Just saw that. Surprised this isn’t bigger story around here.

Chiefs may have dodged a bullet here (pun intended).

Was it known back in December that he got arrested for shooting at the guy? I know I don't keep up with the arrest reports of other teams, but I feel this was one I would have caught because of KC and all.

It sounds like he's got a fall guy. Could be seen as good veteran leadership showing the young guys how to do things.

The lucky egg

LOL ... LT Overton isn't even in the draft. He went back to Alabama for another year. And Higgins isn't going in the 60's, he's going in the top half of the 2nd at worst.

You guys need better sources of information.

I'll make the list for you because it does happen that guys work out between 20-32.

In fact, on average, there's one about every 2-3 years if you look at the past 20 years of history.

Joe Staley - 28
Duane Brown -26
Bryan Bulaga - 23
Anthony Castonzo - 22
Riley Reiff - 23
DJ Humphries - 24
Garrett Bolles - 20
Christian Darrisaw - 23
If not for injuries, Isaiah Wynn may have made it on this list.

Acting like it never works out isn't the correct way to look at it, either. Just because it is rarer than the top-10 guys making it doesn't mean it won't.

Yes, you normally have to move up into the top 18 to get a left tackle. Doesn't mean you will automatically whiff if you try to get one in the late first.
