They said they selected him as guard. Peat's competition now it looks. Can also play tackle.

Overview
Three-year starter with good overall size/length and the potential to play multiple spots along the offensive line. Saldiveri is naturally athletic and should fit best as a zone blocker or pulling guard who can get out into space and find work. Hand skill and placement are consistent issues on tape and could prevent him from neutralizing NFL opposition at a functional level. If he proves he can snap the ball and makes a move to center, that should improve his draft stock and give him a better chance as a pro.

Did they really need to give up a pick to trade up for him?

If they wanted to make absolutely sure they got him ... yes. As fans we may see these players as interchangeable. Just numbers in a queue. I believe they have specific players they have targeted as must additions and will do whatever it takes to acquire them. You don't want to take the chance of losing them. As Loomis has said many times, "When we have someone we want we go and get them."

Talk about adding beef on the offensive line ...


Edit: By the way, great interview here.

Popeys Sammich Peat eventual replacement. He may start at some point this year. Not sure yet to move up in the 4th what we gave up for him.

You do if you absolutely have him on your board as a "do not miss". This wasn't a knee jerk move. They had all night to come to this decision and didn't settle for anything less than the very first pick. We gave up a 5th rounder. No big deal, really.
