Terry McCormick (@terrymc13): Brian Callahan said there is probably more depth on the OL in this class than he’s seen in a while. Said there will be some top end receivers then a bit of a drop off.

Big day for the Nabers/Odunze crowd
I don’t think we leave Round 2 without drafting a WR tbh. Ran and Cally have talked too much about the importance of WRs and how good this WR class is to wait until Day 3.
We’ll just have to see what happens on draft day. I really only see 12 lineman that I would take in the first two rounds and I could easily see 10 of them taken in the first.
I don’t think it should shock anyone if Nabers or MHJ (somehow) fall to us that we go WR even though OT is our biggest need… that said if we did something crazy like go Rome Odunze (who i like but isn’t quite in that same tier imo as MHJ or Nabers) over Joe Alt i’ll be slightly disappointed with this draft as that will feel like we reached when we had an answer to LT right there.
I dont care what they do as long as Levis isnt getting sacked on 35% of his dropbacks or more.
If he is, we are probably drafting #1 overall next year like the projected numbers say lol
Somebody leak MHJ’s S2 scores!
Been listening to draft podcasts, really sounds like GM’s around the league want to nab WRs early because of how deep the OL is in the draft. This is at least the 4th time I’ve heard this just this week, although everyone says that with the caveat that Alt is the best offensive tackle we’ve seen in years.
He didn’t say “OL is deeper than WR this year”; what he said was that this OL class feels deeper than past drafts. He also said that he thinks every WR class is about the same nowadays.
So if you ask me, it sounds like he’s saying that this OL class is special, and the WR class is the same as it is every year. Which, means either:
(1) we OL first, because the talent at the position isn’t guaranteed year in and year out; or
(2) we go WR first, because this OL class is uniquely deep.
TLDR: We’re gonna draft either an OL or a WR in round 1
Use all picks on WR and OL, split even then.
And I’m not REALLY joking.
I prefer trade back, Alt, WR in that order. But I also think it would be really hard to go wrong with this draft class.
OLine and WR are both very deep this year.
I think we need to remember that “OL” does not mean “OT” and depth doesn’t necessarily mean “available at one of our later picks”. There may be 10 OTs with Day 1-2 grades but if 8 of them go in the 1st round we still might not be able to get a starter on day 2 by pick 38. I don’t fundamentally disagree with anything he is saying, the overall OL class is deeper than normal and there is a dropoff after the top 3 receivers. I also think the run on tackles will happen before pick 38 and the next tier of receivers is still very good and a very deep tier.
“We’re drafting multiple OL this year ladies and gentlemen.”
