Solid draft. like the QB in the 2nd. I'd prefer a WR with speed.

I would like that as well, but you have to consider the Jets, Titans, Chargers and Dolphins pick 9-12 and all could be looking for offensive line help. If you are willing to risk missing out on Warmack, Cooper, Fisher, and Lane Johnson, you can trade back. I worry about it being another Suggs situation. We trade back with Miami, only to see the another team trade up to get the guys we want or the teams we move behind taking them.

I'm just not sure I would take the gamble of missing out on an OG who is so talented, he is a top 15 talent.

There is no way in heck that Cooper and Johnson are going in the top 12!

Cooper is being looked at as a center the first yr mostly. He'll be a very good Guard, just not right off unless he goes to the right situation. But most see him and his superior footwork and lack of ideal weight to be better suited for Center at the moment. Lane Johnson is stricktly back of 1st Rd. material. Someone with good potential and also needs some pounds put on.

#12 would be awsome. I can think of 12 I'd be more than happy with who'd fit very well. I also would take Jarvis Jones at that point in the draft. In no particular order:

1- Joekel
2- Fisher
3- Warmack
4- G. Smith
5- M. Barkley
6- S. Loutulelei
7- D. Moore
8- J. Jones
9- B. Werner
10- B. Mingo
11- D. Jordan
12- D. Milliner
you could concievably add-
13- S. Montgomery (I like him better than Mingo at this moment/Mingo has some upside value)
14- Cooper
15- L. Johnson

Where are you getting this info? Scouts are arguing that Jonathan Cooper is a better OG prospect than Warmack in a zone scheme because he moves much better than Warmack. The difference between the two isn't that great per Bryan Perez, Dan Pompei, Tony Pauline, and Mel Kiper.

As far as Lane Johnson, he is as big as Eric Fisher and has LT feet as demonstrated at the Senior Bowl. If you need a LT, and Joeckel and Fisher are off the board, do you really care if you take him 10 spots early? There are very few LTs in this draft, and Lane Johnson is one of them.

Now, you are correct that it is very UNLIKELY that two OGs get drafted in the top 15. I agree. BUT, it is still a possibility because those two OGs are very talented and there are several teams that need OGs in the top 15. Maybe I roll the dice if both are available at #7, but I could totally see us trading back, Warmack getting taken and then another team trading up for Cooper. It is always a risk.

On face value, it looks as though as many as 30 or more WR's might be drafted this year. Certainly, the later they get picked, the more questions that will need to be answered, but I do think this may be one of those years where we can land a keeper late.
