Who is your "no, just no" guy in the 1st round?

Iheanachor is a right tackle, not left. At left tackle he will be a huge project - Iheanachor was one of the players I was thinking of when I made this comment earlier in the thread:

I get it but he's young, raw and toolsie which the Steelers have drafted in the past. He's one of the few that I'd like to see try at LT out of this class. Or we could try Troy at LT but I'd like to see what Max could do there.

could possibly draft a right tackle and move Fautanu Back to Left Tackle

1. Do you really want to risk weakening the right side off the Oline in attempting to strengthen the left side?
2. Fautanu played left tackle for left handed quarterbacks in college. Whilst the left handed QB might not make a difference to some of the basic requirements of Left Tackle play, it does make a difference to run/pass blocking emphasis and the pass protection arc.

As a side note Fautanu played right tackle in high school, so basically his entire career he has protected the quarterback's front side, not the blindside.

And how often has young, raw and toolsie worked out in the first two rounds for the Steelers in the past (for any position, not just offensive tackle)? It certainly didn't when the Steelers used a second round pick on Mike Adams. Brod Jones met that description too - and the whole reason we're now talking a left tackle in the first round, is that even before the injury, most of this forum weren't convinced Jones is the future at LT.
