With the 116th pick in the 4th round, we selected Ben Bartch, OT, St. Johns

Thoughts on him?

Dave got one right!

That’s your guy. Good call!

Who cares? it only matters what the big boys think of him   Gotta wait to hear from Caldwell and Marrone 

I frickin' love this pick. I have a family connection to St. John's, and they love Bartch. Green as hell at tackle without much playing time there, but he looked like a natural there. Sleeper who's going to take a couple of years, but could be a stud over the long haul.

Have no idea about him, but I hope he can come in and make a difference with some competition.

High high ceiling but needs lot of work. Can't teach his mobility though, I like the pick.

Meh, hard to get excited about 4th rounders starting on the line. We will see I guess. They botched the offensive line this offseason, this changes nothing.

I think he probably gets utilized as a 6th Offensive linemen as a "Big" Blocking TE or kicks inside to Guard since he has shorter arms & played Division 2 competition.

The odds of any day 3 pick becoming a starter is 10%. These are the types you want to take though.

There is always this guy every pick. Congratulations on being that guy.

FB as well maybe?

"I think the intimidation factor is very important. I enjoy a good pancake. I enjoy finishing a guy off through the whistle. I think those things really set the tone. They understand that it’s personal when you’re blocking them through the whistle. You have to protect your quarterback at all costs. It goes back to the pancakes. I enjoy taking souls, so to speak."

Already like this guy! Definitely sounds like a project. Dave and team clearly like our starters.

I'm sorry that I want to see actual protection for our QB. Imagine not wanting your QB to get slaughtered? IMAGINEEEE? We drafted a developmental guy for an offensive line that needs immediate help at LT and RG. I'm so happy.

Dudes an offensive guard not a tackle. This has to be the most disappointing draft in a long time.

Yeah, I'd be stoked if we had an O line. We don't. This guy pencils in at RG right now. LOL.
