Man, this draft is going to be crucial for this offense and the team's cap future.

We pick high enough in round 2 to get a premier OG/OT.
...
Yeah, maybe. 
It's a little early to think we know which guys are going to be sitting there at our second pick. The top tackles could be gone.
I know you've got your own strategy with a guard and a swing tackle, but I'm trying to keep a more open mind about it. I find it difficult to feel any certainty about the front office's approach to filling out this o-line when we have no clue what their evaluation of Richardson is. 
It's possible they go after two tackles that have enough versatility to play guard and/or either tackle spot. It's possible they don't target right tackle at all other than depth behind Richardson/Parnell.  
It's hard to guess right now with the amount of unknowns floating around that right side. There's a lot of ways to try skinning this particular cat. 


All I know is they definitely need a guard before the 4th and they need depth everywhere. I just hope to see two quality linemen selected before the 4th round, and I hope one of them has some versatility. 
I imagine we'll see some depth signings in mid March from the pool of journeymen out there. That may be the first chance to really begin speculating their approach.
