Not saying I want to draft him, I just want your feed back on this guy. I don't hear much about him and he falls into that 26 range where we could be looking at him.
 
If he is there at 26, he should be in consideration for the pick.
 
That’s he’s a stud RT that has plus tape against Will Anderson.

If he’s available Id 100% be on board as it would give us an out from having to pay Steele and a player with a higher ceiling.
 
Wright has gained so much steam since the Combine I don’t see him lasting til 26.
 
If you look at Jeremiah's top 50 scouting report, it indicates foot speed is a little suspect. Says he may still be an OT at the next level but definitely sounds like he could slide inside if that's an issue.
 
An awesome tackle in an awesome tackle class.

He has the lateral agility of an OLman 30 or 40 pounds lighter than he is. Dude can kick-slide with anyone, and DEs just can't run over a man that big.

He tends to get lost the further he goes out in space, but I would say that's a technique or scheme limitation, cause his Combine showed it's not a physical limitation.

I'd say his floor is "good tackle" and his ceiling is "stud tackle". He's a lot better prospect than Tyler Smith was last year... he's a smidge behind Tyler as an athlete, but has a far cleaner projection. Didn't lead the NCAA in holding penalties or anything like that.

Agree. Might have passed Harrison for me.

Have you watched him yet? His feet are absurd.
 
Lots of chatter about him being a better fit at guard than tackle

No joke, when I first turned on the Tennessee tape, I thought he was the tight end. I would have lost a million dollars betting that that guy was 6'5" 330.
 
Thanks guys, I'm gonna have to check him closer. But I like what I'm hearing. Especially the part about being able to be a great LG or good/great OT.
 
He is an excellent Right Tackle, I suppose you can kick him inside, but Tackle is the more important position. Think he is a solid top 25 pick.

I meant have you watched Anton Harrison yet?

He might have the best feet in the draft.
