LOVE THIS!!

Where does that grade stack him with our guys?

as far as LGs go, I'd say somewhere hovering around the ceiling. Our guys are huddling in the basement.

Temporary fix (for now), but if the guy fits and performs, he's young and gives you a good chance to kick the tires before making an offer in the offseason. Not a lot of negatives one can find in this deal

"Cleveland is the 8th highest rated guard per PFF. What he would’ve fetched in free agency might have been a Day 2 pick…"

I liked that he played all 17 games for the past two seasons. Was out a couple earlier this year, but sounds like he's durable.

All competitive rebuilds begin with an extra sixth round pick, dontchaknow?

Yeah, I didn't want us to take swings on the defensive side. Bringing in an OG will pay dividends over the second half of the season.
