The best interior OL in the class is Tyler Biadasz. The best fit for us at OG would be Hakeem Adeniji. He played OT, but is a fiend in the ZBS. 

Riddle me this: why is Biadasz all of a sudden getting the Andrew Thomas treatment in mock drafts? I've seen him making it to the third round often enough.

Health would be my only guess. He’s my top rated OL overall grading without positional importance.

This is nonsense imo, can’t believe he lasts that long.

If he’s there in R3 that’s a no brainer imo.

TBH, aside from addressing the S position in the draft at some point, hopefully in the 2nd Round, you could make an argument that we could literally draft nothing but linemen on both sides of the ball and have a homerun caliber draft. Imagine something like this:

1st: Wills/Thomas/Wirfs

2nd: Winfield/Delpit

3rd: Biadasz

3rd: BPA WR (Claypool, DPJ)

4th: Hakeem Adeniji

6th: After Washington says "No" to this pick for Trent Williams (I'm not offering a pick higher tbh) Anfernee Jennings, EDGE Alabama

7th: Raequon Williams, DT MSU

It's a combination of 1.) Center's Positional Value, 2.) The Quality of the Center Class likely available in later rounds (i.e., Cohl Cabral). 3) The Belief that Mid to Late Round Picks and/or UDFAs have success at Center, 3.) The general depth of quality in the draft at various positions, & 4.) Some deficiencies in Biadasz' game.

He doesn't display translatable All-Pro or Immediate Pro-Bowl traits or blocking ability so that disqualifies him from top 20 consideration for a lot of teams based on Center's Positional Value.

The quality of prospects in this draft in general pushes him from 20 to at least 50 as teams aren't taking Biadasz over Tee Higgins, Antoine Winfield, and/or Ross Blacklock types of players that will likely come off the board in the first 15 picks in the 2nd round.

Once you get to pick 50 in the 2nd round, it's easy to end up in the 3rd round based on need and positional value on team's boards.

If we only sign Clowney to a 1 yr deal, wouldn't it be smart to draft his eventual replacement and have him on a rookie contract?
