Jaelon Duncan, MD, 6’6, 320, 71
Anton Harrison, OK, 6’5, 315, 71
Zion Nelson, MIA, 6’5, 316, 60

Carter Warren, PITT, 6’5, 325, 77
Blake Freeland, BYU, 6’8, 305, 71
Matthew Bergeron, SYR, 6’5, 320, 60
John Ojukwu, BSU, 6’6, 315, 70
Javon Foster, MIZ, 6’5, 319
Robert Scott, FSU, 6’5, 334

Great OT list. Hopefully we resign Pipkins. Which would bump down need on your list (understand love for Fashanu) but what really need is a Center list. Having Linsley or not having Linsley is night and day for this OL.

Nice list though im not sure we are looking at a RT early anymore. Maybe better depth than Storm....and we have that in Salyer, unless he will take over for Fieler.

Fieler will be cap casualty as Salyer kicks inside to LG. Can’t wait to see left side next year when Slater returns.

I am leaning that way too unless Feiler really picks it up as the season goes but seems unlikely.
The smarter move due to age seems to be resigning Pipkins now for our swing tackle. Gotta have depth. Salyer is currently saving the season.
Still drafting a new starting RT.

Pip is playing very well. No need to draft a RT high. I doubt they see him as a swing tackle now.

Yeah, I agree. I posted that before Pipkins and Salyer started balling. It's a nice feeling to have quality pieces on the OL. Now I want a legit speed threat/dynamic WR. Had my eye on Quentin Johnson but he's playing his way into the top-10.

Agree. A center to groom behind Linsley is a big need. I can see us using an early day 3 pick on one.

For our premium picks I like WR, DT, ED, LB, S.

The safety pick will depend on Woods' development.

Don't see it lasting but I hope you are right. If so, and he is resigned I shift focus to a guy who is guard center versatile.

Understand versatility, but Linsley is a specialist, lets develop next.

Not lost on you guys but Linsley has been frequenting the injury report. This week it's a fever? Know he is battling tendinitis in his knees, end of last season was his back, just doesn't bode well for longevity at his age. So Center is a must. Clap can be your guard center versatile.

Tuning into Georgia vs Tennessee. Hopefully it equals Alabama vs Tennessee. Lots of prospects.

A fever isnt an injury though so ill take that over an injury. Linsley the last 5 seasons has only missed 3 games til this year and he has missed 2. I assume he will be here 2 more seasons anyways. Need to draft a OC next year.
