Yes, and it would also help to have somebody so the offense didn't take such a big hit when Kelce is out. [Reply]

Really?
There’s a wonderful invention called YouTube that has numerous full games of Kentucky football and some people are even kind enough to do all 22 breakdowns. [Reply]

I'm just not an Okung fan. I'd rather draft someone in the first or second and play him at LT> [Reply]

I think they may take one based on principle, especially that Memphis kid that House coached. Then take one in the 4th that has traits and wait out Ingram.
Gonna be really damn interesting to see
They seem to be really interested in CB's, especially guys that could go around 31.
I think a big part of it is the cost control you get with a first round draft pick. CB's can be really expensive. [Reply]

I'm with you. Nothing but a bunch of below average stopgaps left now at the position. Signing any of them wouldn't really move the needle since we're still drafting a LT high, most likely in the first. [Reply]

They're not trading up into the top 7-8 for a tackle. That's what it would take to get Sewell.
The gap between Slater/Darrisaw and Cosmi/Eichenberg isn't worth it.

Even if they trade up in the 1st, there's no guarantee the guy can or will start day 1.
Signing a stop gap gives them options with little to no additional cost. There's no reason NOT to do it, especially if you're dead set on drafting a LT high. [Reply]
