Schefter reports that Jones suffered setback regarding neck injury

I hope with real coaching he bounces back and has. An incredible year.

Hope springs eternal, I guess. He'll be lucky to be healthy enough to beat out Dylan Cook for the starting job. Recovering from cervical spinal fusion surgery is not easy. Especially when your job is dishing out and absorbing dozens of violent impacts again and again.

Or were they trying to keep it on the down low and it got out.

Probably this ^^

No team wants their adversaries to know of a potential draft need being created five days before the draft.

i certainly understand the mindset of not wanting to move players around, but as has been said, Fautanu was a LT before being drafted. Starks may be an anomaly, but he did well after being moved. Fautanu did well his first season at RT.

For the sake of discussion - say the top LTs are gone at 21 or we're offered a very nice trade. The first is a real possibility. Moving Fautanu to LT isn't out of the question at this point. Cook was getting abused the more teams became aware of his tendencies and abilities.

So we're on the clock Taken are Mauigoa, Freeling, Lomu, Fano, Proctor, Iheanachor, and Miller.

Suddenly we're on the outside looking in on the gone Tackles. So we go BPA, instead of Position of Need.

I'd not hesitate to move Fautanu over to LT in this situation.

no way all of them are gone too beside Mauigoa, one between Lomu, Miller and Iheanachor will be available

There are a decent number of OTs in this draft that should be NFL starters. The trick is getting a LEFT OT. I'm not sure there will be a left tackle that could start soon after round one.

I will wait for the medical reports to see the degree of injury and not play Dr.

I don’t even play one on TV.

Did you at least sleep in a Holiday Inn last night???
 
what happens if Sonny Styles falls to us? do we get the BPA (him) or do we get the best of the rest OT available?

Weird.

Not only was Fautano a LT in college, but Mason McCormack was a LG in college.

One of the draft favourites at OG is Rutledge, who is a RG.

Iheanachor & Rutledge in Round 1 & 2 to play right side, Fautano & McCormack move to the left...

Now you're talking. It always bewildered me that you play guys out their natural position expecting them to play lights out. Dotson was the absolute worst decision by Dumblin!

Probably missed out huh? If they were in Pittsburgh they would be going for a thousand a night. 😄
