Decent articles to read. Especially for next year's draft. Texas in particular has a pretty experienced group as a whole. They have helped pave the way for guys like Bijan Robinson now with the Falcons and Ewher is playing his best football this year.

I will be particularly interested in the upcoming OL prospects for this upcoming draft class.

Agree with you on some of the UT prospects but I might give it a few more weeks before I really put some credence into these players. Will definitely keep an eye out though regardless.

Same. For me it boils down to strength of schedule, followed by any bowl game or championship performances and then from there you hope the eye test also lines up with the combine results.

I think center and guard have to be on our priority list. I think we're good with Little and Harrison at tackle. They need to get stronger in between those two guys though.

It's glaringly obvious.

This will be a good thread to keep alive.

Hard to imagine this Jags team not attempting to upgrade the IOL

I said this prior to the 2023 draft, but I'll continue the broken record...
They need to draft a Center who can play Guard or a Guard who can play Center - that one player (at the very least) would make a difference and give them options.
This is my primary source for keeping tabs on prospects yearly. They do a good job updating their rankings and boards weekly. Their website is not nearly as clunky or painted up with advertisements like Walterfootball.

You can see they just updated it on the 15th. They already have a guard out of Ohio St. shooting up +30 in Matthew Jones. With Bryce Putnam going +80 out of Clemson at Center. You can also see they have an issue with Texas A&M after they docked one of their guards and their center and dropped them down a good bit.

Just an easier way to find something to do for fun. Also gives me something to do on Saturday's if a random college game is on. All of a sudden you're looking for a game to watch because you want to see a specific lineman or two out there cracking skulls or serving up pancakes.

I know Harrison had a rough go with Jones yesterday but it was fun seeing him throat check Jones earlier on in the first drive and putting him on his [BLEEP].
Jacob Monk from Duke. Keep an eye on that kid. Solid Guard & Center. 5th year senior. Has played all 3 positions on the line. McIntyre over at LG has also looked good tonight in a close game.

Yeah. I follow Drafttek in the offseason every year. Very good for getting familiar with prospects.

Yep. I like these guys too over here at NFL Draft Buzz.

I think jc Latham could be our go, and a strong possibility of him dropping down to the 2nd [ similar to torrence ]

It makes me salivate to think about the pipe dream of getting Bowers in the 1st and a really good IOL in the second. Can you imagine an offense with Engram and Bowers as our TE duo?!

Beebe playing in the K State/ OSU game. Interested to watch him.

Tbh our first priority should be o line in all aspects then some interior rush presence
https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Sedr...OL-Georgia

A great option for us in the 2nd, should be a direct replacement for fortner

Same here in the 3rd, not much depth at guard, if baalke can work some magic I think most of our o line picks should be around the 2-4th round
https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Coop...ansasState
Cooper could be our successor for scherff

We could look to bolster our interior rush presence in rd 1

Beebe handled every one he faced. I watched him on 5 or 6 series. I didn’t see anyone back him down. Pulled well. Got to second level well. Of course, it was Big 12 competition. Love to see him in one of the All Star games.

Okay bugger the interior

OLINE Rd 1thru to 3
Our next LG? Could play tackle if needed

He was the only lineman last year to get a grade of 85 or over in pass block and run block and he was also 1st team ACC last year.

I have watched a good bit of Duke games this year. Was impressed with how they played against Clemson in that early upset this year and they tried rallying against Notre Dame in the last game I watched.

They have a pretty stout group overall. What happened to Leonard though? Their QB? I saw him on crutches after that loss to Notre Dame. He's a running QB and gets a lot of work done in that regard. 

If they don't have a similar QB starting now? I'll really want to see how well this kid and this line holds up in general if the current QB starting is more of a pocket passer.

Love to see it. Hopefully we can bolster the interior with a pick or two in April.
