I like Fashanu the most after Alt. I wouldn’t mine Latham. Fautanu is an elite guard to me. He is super athletic but I think he will get beat alot on the edge against speed to power rushers. He just doesn’t look like a tackle out there and has to take more steps in pass pro which leaves him open. Not big on Mims. I’m not looking to take on another tackle project in Mims. If you liked what you saw thus far in penning then may take that risk but that is not the case.

Edit: Watched some more film on Fuaga and he interests me. Has some pretty nice abilities you can work with. Initially thought he stood straight up and lacked bend and just mauled weaker competition. However, he has a really nice set pass set with quick feet. Also showed some nice reps against Latu.

All these guys outside of Alt have flaws honestly and carry some significant risk. I think fautanu is probably the next safest but at guard not tackle.

What does Fashanu having 8.5” hands mean? Looks to be one of smallest if not the smallest hand size for an OT ever. Does it matter?

I just measured my hands and they are just over 9” - middle aged white, 6’ 180
