By far my least favorite pick but I'll take it. I haven't actually watched any tape on the guy so its not like this is an informed decision so fwiw.

I am not a fan of this kind of pick for the Colts at this point. He may have some interesting upside or something, but I have a hard time buying this is a BPA pick. This is giving Philbin a toy or something. I can't get all that mad this late in the draft. Much better than a developmental guy like Green in the second.

Eh, weakest OL draft class in some time. If it wasn't Robinson or Lamp, most people were going to have questions essentially.

Sure, of course, the option to not take one was there and look at udfas and late cuts for depth. I am far from upset, just kind of meh on this pick.

I think the bloodline helps justify the pick. That, and the fact that the line has consistently struggled to create running lanes.

6' 8" 353. Yikes!

It will take the DLineman 5 seconds just to run around him.

I liked the pick. He was the fifth rated tackle on Nawrocki's board.
And in the scouts take section a scout says " He's an NFL starter at right
tackle. He's better than( Rams 2015 second round pick) Rob Havenstein and
a lot of guys that are playing right tackle now". He could go a long way to
solidifying the right side. Love his size.
