Wasn’t Ford supposedly athletic? This guy is supposed to be an immovable object but isn’t considered athletic at all. He should be great in pass protection at least.

 

You can compare and contrast draft profiles if you like

The comparison would be athletic profiles. That’s where it ends. Torrence a natural RG.

 

Wait plug and play at LG or natural RG, which?

[Reed83HOF]

beane presser:

wants best 5 to play

bates primarily inside rotating guard, back up morse

can play T in a pinch in a game if needed, but not a starter at T

 

oooh a tweet:

I know that he won't be playing RT.   Just a typo.  He could be a LG though.   Iupati and Incognito were LG's for Roman and they could handle the short distance pulling from left to right.   

 

Now get out to do work on a screen?   Forget about it.

Im quite sure Torrence can handle standing still for a few seconds until Allen chucks it into the dirt while our RB looks around confused.

meh. If he were solidly above average starting caliber, he’d have a spot. Being versatile is extending a career not costing him reps.

He's gonna be on Sirius  NFL Radio in a little bit

100% on the same page with you on this

This pick was an A. Then Beane went and scribbled crayon all over the painting in the 3rd round and acted like he had no choice

 

 

It could have been this:

 

Dawkins

McGovern - Bates

Morse - Bates

Cyborg - Edwards

Dawand Jones

 

 

and spare me the talk about Dawand being a bum. Coach him up….the elite traits and tools are there. The right side of your line would have received a Dominant upgrade

Yep,  already scrapping the James Cook passing game weapon plan.

 

Since Whaley left after the 2017 draft have McDermott or McBean found any "scheme" fits that worked exceptionally well in the draft?   Their success has been finding guys who work in any scheme.   That is guys like Allen and Rousseau.   Guys like Edmunds and Oliver were supposed to be players whose skills were accentuated in the McDefense and that hasn't materialized.   Both have fallen well short of expecations and rounds 2 and on haven't isolated anyone who was a great scheme fit the way the 2017 draft did Milano.

I'm still very high on Brown. 

I just think he was dealing with injuries or personal things not disclosed to the public 

 

I'd be shocked if we drafted competition for him. He's the guy at RT

He's a physical freak. Him next to Cyborg could be deadly

fine, but he’s had those issues for multiple seasons….and almost singlehandedly lost us the AFC Divisional at KC. Josh had to escape 3 KC defenders on 4th down

I think what you have to understand is.. On that oline it is a huge team effort. Tackles need to rely on guards to do their job. our guards last year did not do their job. You have to depend on who is next to you to block the right man then release to the next man when needed. We struggled with that for last 3 years. How many times was Morse and The RG (whoever it was) double teamed and never released to take the blitz coming in putting the RT in a bad spot.

 

Got to look at the whole picture. Our Oline got a lot better this year..

I hear ya but he's going into year 3. He had a better year as a rookie and I just get the impression the staff truly feels he's the guy 

I look forward to a breakout year for him.  If that's is the case,  we have a top OL in the league combined with the upgrades at G

I love this pick unequivocally.

 

Day One Starter.

Quick, without googling, who is the KC MLB?

Isn’t it the guy that returned two fumbles for TDs in the superbowl? What a scrub.
