Who are the top guards in this draft

[Jetstream Green]

I really want us to go guard with our next pick in the third. That's the perfect spot for getting a quality guard and we are going to need one sooner than later. I have not really looked that in depth to the position. Which guys would merit that route, Harry, Chopper, K9... what does our brain trust say, anyone lol

 

[MadCardDisease]

Tristan Wirfs is the best guard in the draft

Is Jack Driscoll any relation to John “Paddy” Driscoll? Noticed that name in the Ring of Honor a while back.

Tristan Wirfs is the best tackle in the draft

FIFY

Obviously I'm partial because of being a season ticket holder but Logan Stenberg at Kentucky plays with a nasty streak. I think he was 1st team all SEC this season. He's from Alabama, they didn't even recruit him, he came to Kentucky & started the last 3 seasons, now he's gonna be drafted. Further proof kids are overlooked in big time football states in the south. I would love to see us draft this kid, he's tough as nails.

Josh Allen
Bud Dupree
Corey Peters
Danny Trevathan
Za’Darius Smith

Don’t draft a Wildcat unless he’s front-7.

 

[Harry]

With a few exceptions the best guards are the failed OTs.

I don't think this is true at all.

Some are..... but many were Interior players all along.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

I believe John Runyan's kid will be a decent guard you can get in round 5-6

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Tristan Wirfs is the best guard in the draft

And possibly the best tackle as well.

 

[CardinalCovfefe]

I don't know, but you remember Jon Runyan? His son is available in the draft as a G. His name is Jon Runyan.

 

[Chopper0080]

And possibly the best tackle as well.

He is a rare athlete that is sure.

Mike Mamula was a rare athlete too.

Please don't say he is the best tackle. He may be the most athletic OT but he wasn't the best OT on the field (where it counts the most).

Watched all those guys turn into NFL players on Saturdays in Lexington, KY lol.

He allowed 2 sacks, 2 hits, and 3 hurries last year

Wills 1 sack 4 hits and 9 hurries


One is an incredible athlete with room to improve.

One is a stiff player from a school littered with offensive line busts who is limited in his potential

Here's how Marino from the draft network rated them.

What about Andrew Thomas and strength of opponents played? There is a reason guys are playing in the SEC vs the BIG10.

*Not a single RT from Iowa has stayed at RT in the NFL. They all move to G. I went back 20 years.

LT's have moved to RT or G.

He clearly wasn't the best OT in college football. He is the most athletic and you could argue he has the most upside. I don't think anyone is saying he was the best OT on the field...some are saying he will be the first OT taken in the draft (I am pretty sure that is incorrect) and some are saying he is the #1 G.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Thomas was 1 sack and 8 hurries.

They are all comparable, which is why they are all at the top of the 1st round and any of them could be the best tackle.

What was Becton...I haven't seen his final stats. Do you have Becton's in 2018 as well?

Thx!

Not as good I don't believe but let me check

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Not terrible.

1 sack 5 hits 6 hurries.

2018 was atrocious. 3 sacks 4 hits 23 hurries

That is some big footwork improvement

Interesting. He supposedly dropped a bunch of weight from 2018-2019. I read about it but can't find the exact number.
