Found this interesting, and for those draft junkies like me might be able to narrow the prospects a bit. And for those calling for us to drat a RT.....I bet we don't.
For those too lazy to read the blog post:
Dominick said he doesn't draft oline because the spread offense in college masks the Oline so much that you can't really get a good evaluation of talent, and he would rather give a guy a year or two in the nfl before passing judgement.
Benchwarmer#1:
Dom is a smart guy.
Kalil plays like crap, long plays like crap... its obvious those were wasted picks. Besides, if Tampa can keep DJ, Penn, and nicks out there, there is no need.
Sam Ram 33:
I still think we need a RT... Not in the first few rounds but another solid prospect to develop. If we learned anything this year is that you need quality depth at every position

I disagree strongly with his thinking. I can't think of any recent oline draft bust that came out the first round. Far from "challenging". The challenging part is actually getting them to play good consistently because these UDFA and late round picks have never done that ever.
See: Anthony Davis LT (2005)

Jason Smith wasn't a huge bust? He's one of the most massive busts in recent draft history. He never used a 3-pt stance in college and it masked a lot of his flaws. Jake Long hasn't lived up to being the #1 pick he won't even be in Miami next year.
