Been looking at prospects. This guy jumps out at me.

Don't know if he'll last past Steelers in 2nd round.
Mitchell Schwartz would be next, followed by Zebrie Sanders, James Brown and Brandon Mosley, all RT canditates.
*Bobby Massie, Mississippi, 6-6, 316, 2-3
This powerful right tackle was once considered a lock to go to Alabama and replace All-American tackle Andre Smith. That would have been appropriate because they were both in bad shape at the time, as Smith memorialized in the 2009 scouting combine when he jiggled his shirtless, flabby, 332-pound body through a 40-yard dash in 5.28 seconds. Massie, who weighed 335 pounds at the time, decided to go in another direction. He chose Mississippi, lost 20 pounds, started as a freshman and helped the Rebels rank second in the SEC and 14th in the nation with fewest sacks allowed (17). That same season, Massie was a key blocker when Dexter McCluster set the school record with 282 yards rushing against Tennessee. Last season, despite playing on a 2-10 team that ranked 114th in the nation in total offense (281.25 ypg), Massie was credited with the key block in all 12 of the team's touchdown runs. According to statistics by The Draft Report, Massie had 102 knockdown blocks last year, tops among tackles in the tough SEC. In his final 29 games Massie blocked for 14 different individual 100-yard rushing games, including two over 200.
Mitchell Schwartz, California, 6-5, 318, 2-3
Mitchell has NFL bloodlines. His brother, Geoff, was the Panthers' seventh-round pick out of Oregon in 2008, started in 2010 but was injured last year, and recently signed with the Vikings. Mitchell was a model of consistency at Cal, starting 51 games, 35 at left tackle and 16 at right tackle. He credits diverse blocking schemes at Cal for upgrading his overall play. And that play was impressive at the Senior Bowl workouts, where scouts raved about the way he handled some of the best pass rushers in the country. That was surprising because most scouts believed he projected as a right tackle for the NFL.
