A nose probably would not be one of my preferred value positions to choose in round one, but at the end of the day, had he been productive - or at the bare minimum, shown flashes of what he could become - we'd probably see it as a solid investment. The problem was he stunk and showed no indication he'd ever not stink.
I would agree but can the prospect have the talent to move to the left side. That has to be the question. Tyrone Smith played RT at USC and was a top ten pick. Myself, I would prefer a player that played LT so we wouldn’t need the time adjusting. Hit the ground running! I think the position is going to be Centre.
100%.
I like the idea of a trade back and picking up another 3rd rounder if someone doesn't fall.
McCarthy has wanted to go to a 12 personnel base for 2 seasons. They had to play Gallup to justify the contract just as they would Mitchell as a 1st round pick. Tolbert showed he’s capable of being the 3rd WR when they do play 11 on 3rd downs in this 2 read and check down offense!
In one of the Q&A sessions last week both staff writers for the team made the assertion that Center is even more important than LT. Not sure I’d agree but makes one wonder if it’s a hint at things to come!
