Oh, I definitely think you're right here. I think they desperately want him to win the LG job and win it this year.

Guess who Fuaga’s closest comp is based of size and athleticism?
Interesting. Maybe one day they wind up our starting guards. I still don't understand the Ruiz pick if we weren't planning on him playing center and moving McCoy to guard. (Was it mainly due to COVID and Ruiz not having time to work enough with Drew, so they just said "frick it" and kept McCoy there for familiarity in Drew's dying days?) Ruiz just looks too small for a guard. But we're committed now after his extension. And he's not terrible, but he's not great either, Bob.
But with the Penning bust, we literally could not afford another 1st rounder on the OL. We had to take the "safe" bet, mainly meaning a guy that is 100% an NFL starter on the OL. The "bet" was that he could play tackle. It couldn't have been that he might not be able to play at all. frick it. Draft another one in the 2nd, sign Peat, and let the new coaches shuffle them around until they find the best group.
The new coaches and the new scheme is a bit of a wild card, though. Everybody kinda gets a clean slate, and they may value different traits at different positions than where we have guys. You'd have to think they had input into which OL to take last night. I'm sure y'all are much more informed than me, though, on who fits best where in the new zone blocking scheme. I'm sure there are comps from the guys they had in San Fran and Minnesota

Fuaga's outside hand is an issue. I see G with 'tackle in a pinch' ability.
