That's how I see it...but I see a run at the position starting around pick 18-19.

I believe the better chance is for us to upgrade RT and maybe draft depth at LT a little later.  Not that LT is a lesser need than RT.  I just think the run will take away most of the pontential starting LTs, which is another reason I think we should pursue Trent Williams.

For OT, I really like Jenkins, Eichenberg and Radunz, but I hate Cosmi. He's way too raw and really needs a lot of work on his pass protection. I honestly don't know if he'd be any better than Robinson.

Why do you see them as OGs only?  Build?  Foot speed?

I am all for pursuing Trent Williams. He should be our #1 free agent priority. 

With Slater, it's his build. He is listed at 6'3" which means he's likely 6'2" and some change. Looking around the NFL, you don't see any great OT's that short. With Vera Tucker, he gets into trouble in space against speed rushers. I believe pushing him inside to OG where he has help on either side, would benefit him a lot. Both look to have bright futures as OG's, Slater in particular. I believe he could be a pro bowler.

No safety should be in the top 25 of anyone’s BAP board in this draft.

Agreed. I wouldn't take a Safety until the 3rd round. It's a fairly deep class, but absolutely no one has separated from the pack. There are several very good players in the class, just no elite prospects.

It won't shock me if Moehrig goes late first

That would be the reach of all reaches.
