Since 2019 it looks like 6 OGs have been drafted in the 11-20 range.

Peter Skoronski
Kenyon Green
Zion Johnson
AVT
Alex Leatherwood (college tackle but has played every game as a G)
Chris Lindstrom

Of that group, Lindstrom is the only guy who really plays like a top 20 draft pick. So yes, a more common spot to grab a G than ILB, but the results still seem like it is a low ceiling, low floor position to target.

I sure as heck hope that #16 isnt spent on a Guard or an Inside LB. It feels like nearly every ILB taken in the first round in the last 10 years didn't get a second contract from the team that drafted them (Zaven Collins being the exception - LOL)

Front 5 on D, OTs and maybeeeeeeeee CB if the best one is there.

As much as WR needs to be upgraded, it just feels like a 2nd or 3rd round guy will get you much of what the 1st rounders have to offer ---

It just seems like a team is better off taking a player at a more premium position who rates a little lower, than the top players at ILB, S, OG, RB.
