I get that, and it's a legitimate concern, but he's also the type of EDGE rusher that Veach and Spags love. He's everything Veach wished Speaks would be. [Reply]

You're right but he also has two more years of wear and tear on his body. Veach has consistently drafted younger players and there are others in the draft like Foskey, Hall and Harrison that are close to what Slags likes and may not require a 1st to get them. I'd be shocked if we take him White.
I'm curious, what's the age of the oldest player Veach has drafted so far? [Reply]

I'm almost positive that he's gonna be a star of the combine and outright leaping Paris while maybe even pushing Stokanski for #1 guy after pro days. His profile seems to match what we ask our guys to do. With the pass becoming a bigger and bigger component, he's primed to go high.
He's a more natural fit then OBJ and is going to be WAY cheaper. [Reply]
If they bring back OBJ...then the need to draft a LT isn't high. Sure you could grab a RT at the end of the 1st round but you can also move that down to the 2nd round if you need to spend that 1st round pick on a WR or DE. [Reply]

Yeah, if OBJ is back I'd wait on a T.
Get the kid from BYU in the 2nd and develop him [Reply]
Anton Harrison is the name that stood out to me at first that should be on the list. I'd probably also add Bryan Breese and Tuli Tuipulotu to the list as well, and others might be in favor of adding Andre Carter. Tuli can play the edge, rumor is Carter didn't look to good at the Sr Bowl so he's been dropping into the 2nd, and Breese falls in like 1/4th of recent mocks. [Reply]
Yea, this list will change based on what happens with certain guys like OBJ, but even if they re-sign him, I think Wright and Jones will remain because they could just be BPA, and they're plug and play at RT.
I do agree that I'd prefer EDGE or WR in that scenario though. [Reply]

I think I'd rather have an edge, but.....shit Darnell Wright seems like an absolute slam dunk RT. Like he's really really good. [Reply]

Bresee isn't on the list because I don't think he will be there.
Tuipulotu is another guy like Harrison that just missed the cut, but only because I don't know if he's a RDE in this system. Love the prospect though. [Reply]

It's tempting. Could give the Eagles OL a run for their money with him. [Reply]
