JC Latham
Fashanu has kitten sized paws and can’t move anyone off the ball. Once Latham gets a hold on you, you are at HIS mercy.

Mims doesn't have a lot of experience. Yes, he's a giant and ran 5.07 40-yard dash but he's shown he can't stay healthy either. I wouldn't want to take a flier on this guy.
as for someone that is getting no buzz, Travis Glover OT from Georgia st.
dude played 5 years albeit in the Fun Belt at both tackle positions.
6'6 317 35-inch arms.
5.27 40-yard time

Hasn’t heard of him, Dane Brugler has him as his OT20, projected 6th rd guy. He had some legit P5 offers coming out of HS it looks like
Brugler has 12 OTs in his top 100. He has Fautanu and Jordan Morgan projected at OG
5. Alt
12. Fashanu
13. Latham
17. Fuaga
19. Mims
27. Guyton
40. Kingsley Suamatatia
58. Patrick Paul
66. Brandon Coleman
69. Roger Rosengarten

yes, he wasn't a combine participant, but he was at the Senior Bowl, Not saying hey, let's take this guy it's more about questioning the player from the bigger school and mainly because he went to a bigger school.
Mainly sighting him as a Late 2nd day pick or early 3rd day pick.
He annoyed me because it felt like he was at Georgia State forever, and I guess in today's college game 5 years seems like seven now?

Strange Gyro, perhaps a new trend? Harrison Jr ghosted the entire process. Fautanu should have gladly done it, but JC is a legit monster.
-85 inch wing
-35 1/8 in arms
-11 1/8 (!) hands
And the TAPE matches the measurables. Dudes a people mover in the run game (which Fashanu isn’t) and is just as impressive pass blocking, and can recover if initially beat.
Go to YouTube.com and type in “JC Latham vs” and tell me when I’m telling lies!

He’s got the potential to be the best T of the class for sure. I think many have Alabama OL fatigue and just write him off a bit. That and he’s at RT. We need a road grader just as much as we need better pass pro, if not more
That said, he can hold his own day 1 on the edge. Absolute worst case, he’s your starting G for years

Nice mix of LT's and RT's.

Hopefully there is a run on the QBs and other skill positions that will allow us to trade back and get a little bit of a draft haul. We need to get some talent back into the roster.

That really isn’t in Loomis forte. He would view a run like that as being fortunate one of the guys in his top blocks/bubbles falling to him and would get a much better prospect than originally expected.

Top level tackle aint gonna make Derrick play any better...

No matter what you think of Carr, every QB plays better with better protection. Even the shitty ones become less shitty.

Definitely a Samoan

Draft the Polynesian from Oregon State. Those guys have so much brute strength, and they play with such a mean streak.
Posted on 4/15/24 at 12:10 pm to Handsome Pete
Which one is a Willie Roaf clone? That would be the one to draft.
Posted on 4/15/24 at 1:47 pm to boudinman
Closest in terms of body type IMO is Fuaga or Fautanu. Both project as RTs imo
Posted on 4/15/24 at 5:19 pm to Handsome Pete
Fashanu or Fuaga
Whoever is available bc I doubt both would be. Slight edge to Fashanu in that situation
