Cam Robinson is not that good. Uche Nwaneri did a great job breaking down how bad of a technician he is. He got schooled a few times by a [BLEEP] nobody in London when they played the Broncos. Guys got nearly 36' arms in length but gets in a T-Rex stance and lets his man come to him rather than jab him.

Currently I’m a bit more concerned about RT than LT. Little does indeed seem much more comfortable at LT. If Taylor does walk what happens? Not to mention Little needs the playing time.

I think we're going to have to draft a pure RT / swing tackle in this draft between RD3 - RD4 if they decide Taylor is not worth the commanding asking rate that's been thrown out there. 

I could see Baalke once again packaging up late round picks though to move up to secure a player he likes for depth with potential back-up value though. 

I was hoping Cody Mauch would be a guy for us but he's too good now and won't slip under the radar. But, going into this summer. I would like to see Walker Little get a fair shot at the starting LT job and I really think him and Robinson both need to alternate between the two positions for evaluations this summer.

Maybe need to actually have the starting line-up get more work in during preseason for that reason. Again, all of that is rooted on what happens with Taylor. At the minimum, a cheap veteran is probably signed up as a safety net and a draft pick is invested at some point. 

I think Baalke has to double dip at either OT or OG in this draft. Just my opinion. LG/RG are shaky with injuries and age concerns. Then you might event want a guy that can play Center in a pinch like another Shatley type incase Fortner regresses.
