Breakdown

He can pancake guys; also pull very well. He had fastest 40 of and O-lineman. This could really help Kamara and open up playbook as quick and fast as he is.

Also a 3-year starter. Plenty of experience.

Many of us are familiar with him being Tiger fans. Love the pick. OL is mandatory after the Unger defection. Drew is getting old, will need all the time we can get him. Lots of skill players still out there. Trade up doesn't cost us anything, really. We got our guy. A+.

He can mow people in the screen game.

Great for screens plus we now have plenty depth at o-line.

There's also going to be some legit WRs in the 4th, I bet. We're going to end up with the long term anchor of our line and another solid contributor. Wow.

I’m very happy with this pick. I love a good O-lineman in draft. Plus this one has all of the tools to flourish in our offense.

Although I still want Will Grier.

That's insane when you think about the defenses he has faced.

I like it. We had to replace Unger with quality to make a run for the SB this year. Bree’s time running out. He starts day one.


Saints Get:

(48)mid round 2nd. (McCoy)
(119)mid round 4th.

Dolphins Get:

(62)late round 2nd
(202)mid round 6th.

2020:
60 (est.) late round 2nd.

Peat? He was always a project.

Agreed it could be a stretch to say that, but it was a great value pick that is a legit upgrade on a tight roster. He could have a LeCharles Bentley impact on our line.

As a Clemson fan, I spent the last 2 years watching our defense dominate in large part because almost every single offense collapsed as a result of the interior pressure from Wilkins and Lawrence.

McCoy and Lindstrom were EASILY the two interior OL who helpup the best against those two first rounders. I was incredibly impressed with both.

Great pick.

This dude is a starter day 1. People need to quit making Peat comparisons. McCoy will start. Fact. Now we can shuffle around and have depth. To me it’s pretty easy to see we can go BPA now. OL had a good starting 5 but not much depth. Now we have a better starting OL with depth. Time to get the best players at our draft position now.
