Draft O-Line Early In 2019? Finally?

Who says they wouldn't be as good? Wouldn't it be redundant to draft a player two years in a row that can only play RT? We still have no decent backup LT and our starting LT might not be ready when the season starts. If we march out there in 2019 with Ereck Flowers at LT to start the season, I'm gonna jump off the tallest building I can find.

Cam will be ready.
Richardson can play RT and RG
Linder and Norwell spots are locked.

We really only need one OL starter (probably need to get 2 more reserve guys either FA or draft)

I think McGary is a 3rd or 4th round guy.
If we're looking at the 2nd or early 3rd round I like Dalton Risner (RT, also can play RG and C)

But I've been hearing a lot about Jonah Williams sliding because although he played well at LT NFL teams see him more as a RT so he's getting more of a late round grade.
There may only be 1 or 2 OTs worthy of top 15 selection in this draft from what I'm reading.

If we move back in the first, I'd love grabbing Williams to bookend with Robinson, but that would leave us converting Richardson to RG (an idea floated but never really tried) or filling Cann's spot with another draft pick or free agent, leaving Richardson to be the swing OT.
