Contrarian on 2nd Round pick - O Line

[ramhard]

If Bradford is going to be the pick at #1 I have a contrarian pick - O line at #2. He's had injury problems in the past, the Rams need to protect not just with an okay line but a great line. The two cornerstones so far are at Center and at left tackle. So I'd draft the best RT (to replace Barron) or OG to develop a great line, then work out...if not #2 (I know it might be high unless a great OT drops that low) then at least #3 for a good interior lineman.

Not all that contrarian. If you look at our Mod Mock, there is a very good argument to be made that Vladimir Ducasse would be taken at #33. I would prefer to wait until Round 3 or 4 to get a RT, but I certainly wouldn't argue the point if they went in that direction.

I would rather go O-line in the 3rd or 4th round because I think in the second round, it's all reaches.

If Mike Iupati falls into the second, that'd be a steal, but that's unlikely.

There's really no guards I would like to pick in the second. In the third or fourth we could get Marshall Newhouse, a big fat slug mauler.


For tackles, the same goes. Even if Charles Brown falls, though I'm not expecting it, he's a finesse left tackle. We could grab a solid guy like Tony Washington or Kyle Calloway and Jared Veldheer in the third or fourth.

i think ducasse could fall to the third, if he does or we trade down in the second i'm all for it. john jerry would be awesome at right guard, too.
