Litto on the left or the right really makes no difference when he has showed little to absolutely no improvement in his ability to react the phone booth. stunts are still killing the kid. Picking them up, passing them off and picking up delayed blitzes. None of the skill sets are near the level they need to be. I am starting to give up on the kid and accept he is a backup in our system or he needs a change and get in a system that requires him to do less.

There are the only a few players I see in the draft that could be on the board when we pick and have a shot at starting. I have dropped a few off my list.

day 2
Joshua Garnett OT/OG Stanford 6041 321 5.38
Connor McGovern, OG, Missouri 6042 305 5.02
day 3
Joe Dahl OG Washington St. 6041 312 5.29

Free agents?
high priced
Kelechi Osemele, G/OT, Ravens - no doubts about his game

moderate
Jeff Allen, G, Chiefs 0 still trying to figure out why Reed did not play him more

cheap risk?
Mike Harris, G, Vikings

Connor McGovern looked like best prospect at the combine and his game tapes are solid. he may have jumped all the way into the second. experienced at OT and both OG positions is huge. size and reach are basically average but superior strength and probably the smoothest OL in the draft makes up for a good bit of the short comings. He is quickly becoming a top favorite. just wish he had more sand in his pants to compete in our division.

Mike Harris is interesting because he just switched to guard and looked pretty good after looking pretty darn poor at tackle.

Draft has some solid prospect to develop over a year or two but to start? it looks like slim pickings. That is why I do not put a lot weight on the bowl performances of some DL prospects. It is a down year for interior offensive lineman.
