Until Alabama OL picks show they can actually play in the NFL, I am dubious of Latham be any good. Stroud seems to have broken the bust OSU QB stigma, maybe Latham does the same. But it has to be proven. I truly expect Olu to be the best of the OT picks in a couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has top notch OL coach so I think it is plausible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't my favorite prospect (that was actually Fautanu) but my board kind of developed before we got Tyron. I absolutely did not want Olu if he had to start this season but now that he gets to sit I love the pick. He reminds me soooo much of D'brick (who also struggled as a rookie).

xrade Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 We have gone the massive road grader route and it has not worked well. Perhaps it is time to go to the other end of the spectrum and pick a great pass protector at the expense of great run blocking. Olu was my favorite even ahead of Alt (only because we were never going to be able to get Alt). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will definitely get a game or two as Smith can't stay healthy. Future: Fashanu-AVT-Tippmann-anyone-Warren I wanted Latham and he was the best kept secret of all the OT, however I am so happy that Olu is here and Bowers is in LV.....!!!!!
