JL Skinner is a good option to have in RD3 potentially. Riley Moss, Trey Dean III in RD4. My concern is that we're potentially going into 2023 with a leaky offensive line and we'll be screaming our heads off like the Bengals fanbase has done now over the last two years for Joe Burrow's sake. 

Cam Robinson's inability to stay healthy, and, even when healthy he's been suspect at times in protection. Ben Bartch and Tyler Shatley I don't think are the answer at left guard. Luke Fortner has to get stronger over these next few months at Center. 

Brandon Scherff is a stop gap player with a history of injuries at right guard. Again, Taylor? Is he staying or going? If he's going that leaves you with Walker Little at RT which means we will ultimately need a swing tackle to help out if either starter goes down.

Oh I totally agree with what you're saying. A lot of what we do at 24 depends on what happens in FA. I think it'll be pretty evident on what the Jags will do once we see their moves in FA.

If I had to guess, Torrence is VERY high on their list.

I just like Johnsons versatility and I think he will end up being a very good safety.

I agree about the free agency portion. Won't really know for sure on how they'll go direction wise until things start really moving going into next week. 

Hays Carlyon, local guy here, he's gone on record stating he thinks Nolan Smith would be our guy if he's there at twenty-four. Which I find interesting. I am a Bulldogs fan. With that said?

Last year I was saying Jordan Davis > Travon Walker. I still pretty much feel the same way at the moment about that. 

But, Nolan Smith? I don't like the pick. I honestly hope he's NOT the pick. He's been oft injured during his tenure with the Bulldogs and despite how good he might look running around in shorts at the combine? It never really showed up on the football field. 

Matter of fact, Georgia won plenty of big games without him. If we're eyeing a pass rusher. TAKE the pass rusher. Tyree Wilson, Andre Carter, Trenton Simpson, Will McDonald, Lukas Van Ness & Felix Anudike-Uzomah are better prospects there IMHO. 

Taking a guy that can't stay healthy and never really hit his stride at Georgia statistically speaking would be frustrating to see.
