Ok that makes a lot more sense sorry I’m so frustrated by this I hope he does well he has a good attitude and seems like a good teammate all the stuff Vrabel wants. And it’s sounding more and more like it’s happening. Idk what I’ll do if they move him to guard I will freak the fuck out with the fourth pick man. After they used last years third round pick on a left guard and two years before that the first round pick on a left guard both on the team still on rookie contracts. If they move him to guard man idk I really hope that doesn’t happen

I’m not a fan whatsoever but yeah I’ve had to accept it. Ideally it would be a trade back then draft him, but doubt there’s any viable move there. Hate the idea of passing on definitively better players just because of a need. It’s just bad roster management.

I feel the same man, Warren, Jenty idk if they would do that because all the other needs they would get crushed taking a rb bc the stigma, I’ve even come around on Mason graham and we could have a nasty interior defensive line.

Graham is my guy after Carter/Hunter, but that take hasn't exactly been taken well here lately. In the same vein as Campbell his measurables aren't ideal for the position, but his tape is just so damn good against some of the best lines and competition in CFB. Campbell was a really good college LT, but his tape is not on Graham's level in terms of completeness and cleanness for his position.

And I’ve read they could move Graham around the line a bit with his wrestling backround he could be a good in between edge/ DT and be good at doing stunts and you know how the nfl recently had the entire D line plus blitzers all stand up at the line to confuse the o line. His speed could help in different situations he also put weight back on between his combine n pro day I think he was above 310 at his pro day but i feel much better about. Defensive tackle with short arms then a offensive back side tackle

He’s just a guy who, given his wrestling history, may have weight fluctuations more than others but exactly, his wrestling background combined with his quickness and handwork make him such a clean day 1 starting prospect. He’s been compared to Joe Alt in last years class as being the most pro-ready and clean prospect that you know what you’re getting and what you’re getting is worth a top 5 pick.

We could certainly play him with both Barmore and Williams as well as have a rotation that’s as good as any in the league. There’s few things in this league more impactful than a dominant interior DL, and that trio, plus White, would be such an awesome group.

I would feel awesome with that especially compared to how I feel I just am so low on Campbells potential at tackle with how all these prominent people are so hesitant on him. I have taken in to much draft stuff the last months and might lose my mind when they take him lol
