Ranking the top OTs in the draft

Recommended Posts

You know I just realized we’ve all been discussing how important protecting Sam is, but I now realize that Jets have huge $ invested in RB. There are 2 big reasons we need LT in this draft. 
I was vacillating between WR and OT but now realize it has to be starting OT

Buzz Aldrin.

I'll show myself out.

Come on at least pick a guy who was the commander of a mission.  Jim Lovell?  Alan Shepard?  How about John Glenn?  Those are 1st round picks right there.  Buzz was a 3rd rounder at best.  

Ooh, big man was the 2nd to walk on the Moon.  Big deal.  He was a f**king passenger along for the ride.  Just looking out the window while Neil steered the boat.  Though he does get props for punching out a reporter for calling Apollo 11 fake.

He was like 80 when he punched that dude out.  That bumps him up the draft board board the way I see it.

Then I think he should be our first choice.  We need an athletic mobile OL for Gase’s offense.

I’m a little worried now that Wills won’t drop to 11

 

The tape is out there.  Wills is obviously the best pass protector in this draft

So then who should be #2...Becton or Thomas.  I am very intrigued by Becton’s  upside.  I know that Thomas is the safer pick.

I would argue that Micheal Collins was better.

He and 5 others were the most separated human beings in history.  At no other time was a person nearly as far away from any other humans than when they were manning the capsule alone on the other side of the Moon while the other 2 astronauts were on the Moon's surface.

OK so months ago, before the combine, all I was hearing about was Andrew Thomas and how he was the best tackle in this draft. Since then it seems opinions are varied and I am a little lost. So please rank your top 4 OTs and say why.  I am not sure who we should be targeting.

Later this week I will be giving my final evaluation for OT'S. But most of you know who my top 4 . 

1. Tristan Wirfs - R-OT,     2. Andrew Thomas - L- OT,        3. Ezra Cleveland - L-OT  4.  Josh Jones -  L-OT

Willis could be a right tackle but because of his drive blocking ability I see him a better guard.

Interesting... I’m not as familiar with Cleveland although I hear he’s a great prospect. Surprised that you have Josh Jones and Cleveland above Jedrick wills and Becton.  Just goes to show that there is some depth.

Cleveland and Jackson are both projects.  They need a year either at RT or as backups to learn

Wills is Clearly the Best pass protector in this draft... Wirfs... with his wrestling background can improve his run blocking & be made a guard... I would prefer the Best pass protector (Wills) protecting Sam.

I AM Confident Wills can play LT as well as he played RT.
