Quote:DC is sold on Pasztor at RT, and add to that, that Bradfield is a swing OT and can START at both sides.

 

Bradfield did pretty well at LT, but was a bad RT.  He's solid depth, nothing else.

 

The only potential weakness would be Martin adjusting and reading NFL defenses, but to me he is the second best C in this draft (Behind Richburg). The Pouncey twins didn't have much problems converting to NFL caliber C's and IMO Martin is as good as the Pouncey twins. Just because we take him in the 3rd isn't a sign of weakness or lesser ability. Every draft is different. Bitonio and Martin to me are both second round talent. If they fall to the 3rd and 4th respectfully that would be a huge steal for the Jags.

 

I think you might be overrating Martin quite a bit.  Maybe he has the potential to be as good as the Pouncey twins, but everything I've read indicates he's below them in terms of talent. 

 

Plenty of teams start rookies on the line all the time. 

 

How many teams start two rookies next to each other?  I would venture to say not many.  The next question would be - how many teams do it successfully?  I just don't see two rookies being significantly better than Meester and Nwaneri were.  Will they be?  I think that's a definite yes.... but as rookies, we may see very similar play or just marginal improvement from last year, which will still make our line a weakness.
