That kid is extremely talented and he's only gonna get better. They have him playing mainly OG this week, but I believe that kid is gonna make a lot of money playing LT in the NFL.

Do we pull a New England Patriot's in this draft then and take him 24th overall? Nobody thought Cole Strange would go in RD1 last year. Ended up happening. 

I really like this kid as well. He has really good feet and has grown into these various positions overtime as he was asked to keep putting on the weight. Former TE. Sounds a little bit like Lane Johnson earlier on in his career with the Eagles. 

I would take him. I think if you factor in his versatility, his athleticism, etc. He's somebody to consider. I was hoping he wouldn't look too good so we could maybe get him in RD3 but he's here to play and I bet once he gets through the combine or pro-day his RAS score is going to be probably on the freakish side.

I like Mauch a lot. Before the Senior Bowl, I would've said no to taking him at #24, but now I'd definitely consider him. He played LT in college, he played LG during this week of practices and in the game he played Center and RT and looked fantastic. This guy is really good and his ability to play every position on the O-Line is so valuable.  

I'm hoping something goes really "wonky" and Broderick Jones falls to us at #24. Will it happen? Probably not, but I can wish. He could start out at LG and then move to LT, once Robinson is gone. Dawand Jones or Anton Harrison would be a consideration at that #24 pick as well. It all depends on who is available. Edge rusher Isaiah Foskey and C/OG John Michael Schmitz would get a lot of consideration from me too with that first pick. I have all of these guys rated very highly. This CB class is so ridiculously deep, so I think we might be able to wait a bit to add a Nickle Corner and I'd add more CB depth somewhere in the final day of the draft as well. I'd add a Safety on day 2 or early day 3 to replace Jenkins, who I would cut to save cap space. The Safety class is pretty deep as well.
