On NFL Network last night, Charlie Casserly made mention after a piece on Taylor Lewan that any of the top 3 Tackles this year are better than the top 2 last year. I believe he went so far as to say that Lewan would have been the 1st pick overall last year had he been in that draft. I like Casserly and respect his opinion, not that he is always right or anyone else for that matter. I thought that was a little unfair to an injured Joeckel, but I'm no expert on Tackle play. Fisher has definitely not played up to his number 1 billing that's for sure, but in his defense he was out of his natural LT position all year.


So, what say you, the message board GM's? Is the third best Tackle prospect this year, Taylor Lewan, better than the top 2 last year? Check your homerism at the door and give an honest assessment please. Where would you rank Joeckel in terms of being a prospect coming out with regards to the other 4 Tackles listed in the topic tags above?


If Taylor Lewan is better than the top 2 prospects in last year's entire draft, what does that say about the quality of this year's draft compared to last year's draft?
