Quote:I hear Pasztor can play multiple positions, and they could switch him inside.  I don't know.  But I do know that OTs are a hot commodity.  And it seems near impossible these days to have a healty line the entire year (that's like 5 injury free seasons at once).  If they are really building a deep roster, a "solid" player like Pasztor would be a backup at tackle.  

 

Trading back changes everything.  Then Mack is back in play for me.  But Mack at 3 to me means this guy is Von Miller.  And I'm expecting no less than Von Miller.  I don't want to hear "OH, he's doing so much more than the stat line suggests!!"  NOPE.  I want 30 sacks in the first 2 years.  No less.  

 

Any player could technically switch positions, I just don't buy the whole "oh, let's just move him inside and he'll be the same" argument. Maybe he would, but you never know, if he doesn't work out and only works as a RT than we have 2 starting caliber RT's with one spot, and Pasztor would become strictly depth and would be a waste for the most part.

 

We can easily find a decent RT prospect in the mid/late rounds that would provide solid depth. With a team that is as talent starved as our's, a RT when we already have a solid one with the potential to get better at such a young age/new to the position, I don't get hw it makes sense.

 

As for you thinking Mack would need 30 sacks in 2 years to show he was worth the #3 pick, well that is just crazy. Sorry, but rarely does any prospect do that, and Von Miller is a freak. Mack's job won't likely be strictly to get after the passer either, he is going to be an every down player that will never be a liability out there in coverage and provide a very good pass rush.
