Conerly has pretty well had a 1st round grade since the process started on this class a year ago. I don't see why everyone would have concerns about picking him.
As for DT, the depth of the class favors going LT in the first. You know the likelihood of getting a quality one in 2 or 3 is much higher than normal. Not only that, but most DTs get taken on day 2 of the draft. It's usually rare for a DT to go in round 1. This year, there are a handful that could, and the class is just stacked through the 4th round.
