Sean doesn't value the LT position enough to move up for one

Maybe some of those teams needing a LT will pick up one in FA, as the Rams have with Long, leaving one of the three top LT's from the draft to drop.

Im thinking trade back to pick up a couple more picks... I actually like Kyle Long from Oregon and Chris Faulk from LSU... Faulk was playing at a high level until his injury... He was rated as one of the top tackle at the start of the season... Either one could be available in the 3rd.

Also a name to watch for is Oday Aboushi from Virginia... Very solid pass blocker and that is the type of OT that Loomis and Payton are high on...

Any thoughts on these 3 OT in the 3rd. or 4th round?

Look at how good in the past we have done developing OL talent by late round picks or UDFA. There is NO WAY we draft up to get a LT. I love Ingram, but after Rickey Williams and Ingram, we should just stop trading up. Hurts us in the long run.

I was high on Oday until Sr Bowl week, where he and Wagner got handled like wet food stamps. I'll take Faulk, Mills or Armstead instead.

Things being close to equal, does anybody else prefer getting Grimes instead of NA?

What about Mckinnie(LT) from Baltamore? He's gonna be 34 soon, so maybe a two year deal would be nice. He did well protecting Flacco's blind side last season.

If Lane Johnson is sitting there I wouldn't be shocked to see him get picked. Move up, though? Doubtful, but you never know.

What good pass rusher is out there?

Several and the chances of one of them being there are very high. The chances of a tackle being there just dropped even more, Jeff Backus, the Lions left tackle just retired.

I already thought 2 would go in the top 4 and Johnson to the Chargers but now he might not even make it to them!
