I think Neal is a much better RT than LT in the NFL. it really shouldnt matter too much because we drafted Walker Little who looked very good Pass blocking wise at LT in his few starts. he also by all accounts didnt look very natural at RT during Minicamps and such and was a key factor in making him the weekly OLINE scratch before our injuries happened on the line. so its more like edge or RT. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldnt mind him at pick 1. He's perfect for RT and we need a significant upgrade their. I get no one wants to spend a premium pick for a RT but both tackle spots are kinda premium now. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ragnarok Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 If the Jags think that Neal will be a Wirfs or Lane-caliber RT, then you take him and give Lawrence bookends. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True Neal would be a solid 1st overall pick but unless Hutchinson works out poorly I think he might be the way to go, get a beast on the edge that gives maximum effort and energy, also switching back to more of a 4/3 might be a good idea, Chiasson could be better in a 4/3 arguably in less edge holding situations at 3/4 OLB. But yeah RT makes sense, especially if Neal works out well athletically which he should. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the absolute worst Evan Neal is a pro bowl guard? Umm, yeah, not sure about that take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Neal is a much better RT than LT in the NFL. Can you explain exactly why Neal is going to be a better RT then LT? I'm legitimately curious if you can defend that argument.
