Even the round 1 pick.  It's a more important position than nickel at this point.

Exactly. Hope for the best outcome but plan for the worst outcome. We need the depth anyway. Tippman would be a great addition. He held his own very well two years in a row at Wisconsin. Could probably develop into a guard as well. Not a knock against Fortner. Just reiterating the importance of keeping 16 upright for 17+ games. 

Robinson is honestly my biggest concern over at LT. We're just stuck with him because of his 9.75% cap hit for 2023. He needs to dig his head out of his [BLEEP]. He played like dog [BLEEP] in London and in Detroit in particular. I think 2023 is his last season here. Finally.
