I wouldn't mind going OL with first pick and defense the rest of the way. Gotta protect drew.

Agreed. Looking at the last few years' drafts, here are OTs that were drafted around the middle of the 1st.

2011: Tyron Smith (9th)
Nate Solder (17th)
2010: Anthony Davis (11th)
Bryan Bulaga (23rd)
2009: Michael Oher (23rd)
2008: Ryan Clady (12th)

Without doing much research, early to mid 1st round OTs seem to pan out a lot more than most positions. With the way we draft on defense, I'd rather get a good OT in the 1st, and spend money in FA for a defensive player, rather then drafting another mediocre defensive player, and overpaying Bushrod.
