A 5 second 40 at 6 foot 9 321 pounds is just inhuman… a freak of nature and his tape backs it up… dude moves around like he’s 6’2 200 pounds
Beeteedubs this guy moved up when it became an official score and it was 12th… 12th highest… at 6’9… do you guys have any idea what Ben Herbert is going to do with a barely 21 year old 6 foot 9 321 pound human being?… and combine that with a team mentality that according to reports from Zion and others, is telling them, go beat their ass and dominate their will for 60 minutes… scary hours folks…
He was on top of our draft board for a damn good reason
Skipping bench should ding your RAS score. He’s an OT and strength matters. He skipped bench because the result was going to be poor.
Between Alt, Slater, and Zion we’ve got some athletic freaks on the o-line. Hopefully they’re able to capitalize on that scheme wise. Get these guys on the move and let them maul.
Feel like I’m losing my mind watching everyone willing to get behind QJ last year but the Alt pick has caused a meltdown.
I love Malik Nabers and he will be great but so will Alt. This is literally just the inverse of the Chase – Sewell picks. Lions built out their team and their protection made Goff look great and were a few plays from the SB. Bengals made the SB but Burrow has been getting busted up since.
We will add to the WR room whether it’s now or later. This is not a SB or bust year for us. TT left the cupboards bare going all in and now the team is being reshaped. This pick will be fine.
Damn, still wished we picked Nabers.
At first I was disappointed in the Alt pick, but the more I think about it the more I like it and realized I shouldn’t be too surprised. Harbaugh wants a run it down your throat & control the line type of team. Slater and Alt will be great bookends on the line. Harbaugh and Hortiz probably watched plenty of tape from last year of the OL being blown up and said no more. My personal hope for him is that he consistently shuts down/neutralizes Crosby.
I think I’m just worried about him moving to the right side. Hopefully he’ll be just as capable
Both Staley and Harbaugh talked about being line of scrimmage teams but the difference between them is that Harbaugh is actually going to do it. Staley preached about it for 3 years and then drafted exactly two lineman in the top 3 rounds. Slater and Zion on the o-line and nobody on the d-line. That won’t be the case with Harbaugh. He’ll be taking one or two lineman in the first three rounds every year from here on out.
Haters can eat crow. Hes been receiving an A+ rating. Big Joe will be a perennial pro bowler for many years protecting Herbert and creating some big holes for Gus/JK.
Lets ask Philip Rivers. Would you take one year with a bad reciever group for 10 years with good to great protection and run game?
I think he would answer yes every time.
Weve had a like 15 to 20 year run with VJax, Floyd, Gates, Allen, Hunter Henry, Mike Williams, LT, Sproles, Tolbert, Matthews, Woodhead, Gordon, Ekeler, Rivers, and Herbert.
And youre all convinced that all this time **receiver** was the missing key?
I am not saying we dont need a good receiver to compete.
What I am saying is its time to blowup Telescos shit show and build it back up. Harbaugh and Hortiz obviously agree. If you want to know what Telesco would have done, he would have gone WR, just like he did with Mike Williams and QJ.
The guy was a consensus top 5 pick. Were Nabers and Harrison Jr. Ranked higher by most? Yes, but that doesn’t mean that once Harrison Jr. Was off the board that we didn’t have Alt as the next best player available. It’s possible that he was our top ranked player in the whole draft ahead of Harrison Jr. Its a good pick no matter how you look at it.
We also now have blocking TE’s. Our OL is going to crush.
He’s a guy that will help you get in the end zone but we wanted the guy who scores them.

A smart long term pick but an opportunity missed.
