Kind of hard to name a "good" LT pick if we've only had Brown and Bushrod start under Payton

Zach Streif was a 7th round pick a few years ago. Before he became the starter at RT, he was an awesome swing tackle and jumbo TE. That's value. Bushrod was great for a 4th rounder from Towson. Jon Stinchcomb and Jamaal Brown were both 1st rounders, but neither were especially talented (or drafted by Payton). Through good coaching they were able to form a good duo. This line has always been built off of a solid interior with two great guards and a good center. The tackles don't need to be great because of the way Drew steps up in the pocket. If he has a bad interior he'd be stepping up to a sack in his face. I'm not feeling the pressure to reach for a tackle in the 1st, but if one of the top 3 fall to us, like Lane Johnson, then I'd boogie with that.
