What are the chances we draft a tackle with one of our firsts, and what happens to Braxton Jones if we do? (alien.top)

Olu Fashanu and Joe Alt are great prospects and LT is a really important position, but Jones has been pretty solid this year. Is it worth it to use one of our picks on one of them if they’re there?

Maybe this depends more on what our other needs end up being and who’s available at that spot.

I’m encouraged by Nraxton, but not yet sold on him. I know he’s a PFF darling but he gets flagged for a lot of penalties. Maybe now that Sweat is on OUR team he won’t give up too many more sacks and pressures?

Seriously, he’s gotten better in pass protection but I’ve seen him fail the test enough times in the past that he needs to sustain it before I’m convinced we’re best off passing on Olu or Alt.
