If you review the tackles in the draft the only true almost can’t miss left tackle is Joe Alt who will likely be gone. Rest of the guys are either projected right tackles (Latham, Fashano), expected to move inside (Fuaga, Fuatana, Barton), or are projects (Mims, Guyton).


This is the deepest group of OTs we’ve seen in a while. I disagree with your assessments on those other guys and most draft analysts do as well. These guys are no where near Penning level projects if thats what scares you.

Those are all based off assessments from draft analysts. However, Fashano is a left tackle. I need to give him more credit.

It's deep with B-level guys.

There are no elite guys, and Alt is the only B+ prospect.

They don't have to be near that level to not be worth it.

Most non-S tier OL don't really step up until year 3. That will (hopefully) be Carr's final year. They won't help at all this year, which your needs-based argument is structured around.

Bowers will only not produce in year 1 if our coaches don't want him to.
