You don't draft for ceiling in the top 5. Take the solid player with the high floor that can grow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warfelg Posted April 25 Author Share Posted April 25 And on the flip side Chris Collinsworth is mocking Latham to us at 20. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why settle for a Rt only player at 5 when you have some generational talent at WR that will be there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s two of the more plugged in guys on this stuff with Daniel Jeremiah and Peter Schager reporting this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their current RT is not a good run blocker, Harbaugh wants to run it, WR is deep, and the OL overall there stinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigben07MVP Posted April 25 Share Posted April 25 I would take Alt and move Slater to the right side where (I think) he played in college. That’s if a trade down isn’t available. They need as many picks as they can get. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can right now(hence the possible Aiyuk deal) and probably will again next offseason. So…wouldn’t a Sutton or Aiyuk trade count as that “1-2 more Queen level signings” that you are clamoring for…? Maybe just a little patience is required. Maybe Omar has a plan. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe just a little patience is required. Maybe Omar has a plan. I said Aiyuk definitely would be one of those. Sutton not quite because he’s 29 and pretty much only a 2 year deal(but cheaper compensation wise)…but I wouldn’t hate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aiyuk should count for 3 😅 He’s the centerpiece of an offense that you can build around. I want to see them do it just because it will be proof Rooney/Omar aren’t messing around. If we leave the draft with Aiyuk and one of the top 3 centers I don’t really care what else they do. You just don’t see receivers of his caliber at his age become available all that often. Not to mention he’s build in a lab for Arthur Smith’s offense and to be a mentor for GP. And if it comes for less than a 1st we should throw a parade. With that being said I won’t be too disappointed at all if it’s Sutton for a day 3 pick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I’m a huge fan of Aiyuk as well…especially if it’s not with a 1st rounder. I just want young pieces added on offense that can help the QB of the future going forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looked it up he actually started 26 games on the right and 11 on the left at Northwestern. I also remember he was projected as a RT/OG coming out due to having shorter arms. And yes he has been dominant on the left side but I would figure it out because Alt has so much more upside than Latham (imo). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
