NFL combine starts tomorrow.
It’s crazy how fast this stuff comes up when you make the conference championship.
Normally feels like forever until we get to pay attention again.

It feels like they will be looking at a RT/G if they go OL in the 1st or 2nd round

Unless Conerly drops he seems like a natural LT but needs to beef up some. Am assuming Banks doesn't drop that far albiet some think he's more of a guard because of length.

But yeah Zabel, D. Jackson, might be there.

Late 2nd Cameron Williams -- supposedly good tools coming off a poor season. Some like Ozzy Trapilo. Wyatt Milum. Ersery. Savaiinea. Mbow. Most project as guards.

I am expecting AP to go off his rankings. I have a hard time seeing OL being tops on their boards at 29. I am guessing CB/DT then Edge, so it will really be interesting to see how they go. If Conerly is there, they may bite. they must love his move skills and smarts, but he isn't as big as I am imagining they want.

Yep.

And we are only two weeks away from the legal tampering period for free agency begins.

I like Hollin Pierce from Rutgers. He's not as dominant as Dawand Jones was, but he's a similar type of player and perhaps he doesn't come with the kind of off-field baggage Jones had.

I'm not sure about his run blocking range, but 6'8 350 with a good pass set is just really hard to get around. I think PFF said he only gave up like five sacks in 50 starts.

Hmm, look at you opening my eyes to a OT. Just like numerous past years! I had not looked at him to date and now that I have, he is looking like a guy they gave in the 3rd if they can't hit on one sooner. He does have numerous positives and could become the future RT. Not sure if he moves as well as they like but he is big like they like for sure lol
