I didn't say his name because I saw it high on some draft board. Just a guy I watched along my travels and was impressed by. Likely a riser.

Him being on a bad team and not high on media draft boards means literally nothing to me

That's fine, but I'm simply saying we're to the point where O-Line is a HUGE need and even if the guy is a late riser, it's unlikely he would rise all the way into the first 3 rounds and that is where we must start building our offense. I'd advocate using all of our 4 picks in the first 3 rounds on offense, (QB, OG/OT,TE and swing Tackle). We need high end players on the O-Line, especially if we are planning on starting a rookie QB either in the middle of 2019 or at the start of the 2020 season, depending on who we have as a bridge QB. We could always bring in guys for depth, that's great, but we need an instant starter at RG. Not only that, but depending on what we do with Parnell in the offseason and if Robinson can be ready by the start of the 2019 season and how much Richardson comes along, we may be needing a starting RT. Hopefully, Norwell can pull it together, because he has looked like crap so far. His big contract means his spot on the O-Line is locked in though.
