So you make the pick and if he legitimately makes it to a second contract in the NFL (Jakke Conklin is a good example though he left the Tians - the 8th pick and has been a solid Pro_ - it was probably a good pick. If the Chargers pick a guy like COsmi at 5 - I get the pick 100%!!

as not overly convinced Telesco will go OT.... he could go Penei/Slater if he thought/felt he could pencil them in @guard for starters, and w/the possibility they move to tackle if his fellas don't pan out @tackle, as he is invested thrice over @the OT w/Pips, Sam and Bryan.
think OG and the OC are (much) more pressing than OT atm, as wouldn't be surprised if Tom rode things out @tackle for another season, and let the Pips contract play out one more year, and not to mention Bulaga would be pricey to let go this offseason as well ??5/11 Fuaga, 37 Kamari Lassiter, 40 Sinnott, 67 Bralen Trice, 69 Cedric Gray, 105 Jaylen Wright, 110 Braelon Allen, 140 Joe Milton, 181 Khristian Boyd, Tylan Grable, 225 Daijun Edwards, 253 Miyan Williams

The more the mocks aren't correct. So Fairley from VaTech might be mocked pretty high by bloggers , Kiper McShay etc but in the actual NFL - he is slotted lower or vice versa. Another thing - style of play by a team and need for a team also play into it. Do bloggers really know the style of play and depth of every teams

don't want him @all nor anywhere in the draft, and think he might be better value @fifth pick in the second round.... pls don't draft for need/by position.... the ghost of DJ Fluker awaits us. :O5/11 Fuaga, 37 Kamari Lassiter, 40 Sinnott, 67 Bralen Trice, 69 Cedric Gray, 105 Jaylen Wright, 110 Braelon Allen, 140 Joe Milton, 181 Khristian Boyd, Tylan Grable, 225 Daijun Edwards, 253 Miyan Williams

Yep, although I had a backup tackle in the 2nd. Drafting is tough, but sometimes you just have to do the right thing and pick BPA at a position of need. Especially if its a chronic weakness at a premium position.Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
The Wasted Decade is done.
Build Back Better.

I like Wyatt Davis a lot for IOL. Not sure he can transition to Center or if he is a true OG. But if you do not get a chance for Sewell - I would prefer OT but if you can get an OG like Martin or Nelson - sign me up today. Just a plug and play right away - thats fine with me. A guy like Leatherwood at the top of R2. This would mean a trade back as I doubt Wyatt Davis goes as high as Quenton Nelson but if the pick warrants, why not.
Three things I would love to see us do with our first pick this draft.
1. Improve the oline
2. Get a talented AND polished prospect(Plug n Play day 1 starter)
3. Get a safe pick(Virtually bust proof, clean medical)
2 Guys fit that bill in this draft, from my point of view. Penei Sewell and Wyatt Davis...
By the way...Davis is a OG all the way...but I bet his buddy Josh Meyers can be had at the top of the 3rd...preestablished chemistry.Adopted Bolt: Kimani Vidal RB
Final prediction: Latham OT, Colson LB, Sainristil CB,Rice WR, Zinter OG, Nourzad OC, MacLachlan TE, Vidal RB, Lovett DT

Look i know these are always way off. I know the rankings are whack. Im gonna post many of these leading up to the draft. They are for fun. Its not a competition. Im just drafting BPA with guys i like. And since i get premium service with OTC i like to do trades. This one Detroit offered their 1,2 and 4.

We'll see how much he offers Tevi . Isnt he a FA?
Bulaga is what he is. he didnt break the bank but he is injured a lot.
OT and OC is a big need im my view.

My 3rd Mock is trade-down attempt. It's pure madness. I bet the farm on Cosmi and Basham Jr. delivering in their 1st and second seasons, But I hope other enjoy it.
