Brandon Thomas surgery and outlook

[RS12]

Clemson OL Brandon Thomas underwent successful ACL surgery on Wednesday, reports ESPN's Adam Caplan.
"Went well," Caplan passed along. "Expected to be able to practice in season by some time in October." Draft insider Tony Pauline believes Thomas, once thought to be a potential late-first rounder, will likely drop to the fourth- or fifth-round now. Thomas will begin his rookie campaign on the PUP list. Apr 23 - 9:44 PM

I would absolutely take this guy in the 4th but I doubt he slides that far.

take him in the fourth and take Ken Bishop in the fifth. I might miss out on Bishop in the 7th.

Have you watched Zach Kerr? Bishop and Kerr are my favorite later round picks.

I have them rated about the same based on game footage. I lean a little to Bishop.

Kerr has terrific measurables for a guy that weighs 326. His quickness and agility numbers are better than some of the 300 pound guys.

Oh and Kerr does look like a hell of a prospect

If they don't get a DT early, I would be OK taking 2 or 3 of the mid to later round guys like Bishop, Kerr, Reid, Ellis and a few others.
