Why is everyone ignoring we still need a LT. Okung is often injured. 

Just because you don't agree with the plan at LT doesn't mean there isn't a plan... Nobody is ignoring it ppl just recognize that the plan is you have 2 candidates already on the roster.. No matter if you like them are not they are already here already collecting a check so you might as well see if you can develop them... Okung is here to be a stopgap and help with that development.. Which in Todays NFL is a good situation for a young LT candidate to come into.. Rookie LT will struggle will be bad and need time  to develop to be able to transition to the pro game most of the time... So even if you draft a rookie it's good to have a Okung on the roster.. So you're not throwing a rookie out there to get your QB killed... 

Ppl forget that Jordan Gross spent his rookie season at RT before he was transition to the left side.. So Gross had 2 offseason and 1 full season of development reps and practice... Before being a good LT...

How many all pro LT's were 6th round picks?  How many above average LT's were 6th round picks?  There is a reason Daley fell to the 6th.  We have to get some talent at that position.  And like you said, pick a top one, let him learn at RT under okung and then slide him over in 2021

Teddy is right handed. There are no Lefty QBs on an NFL roster and weren’t any last season. Tua will be the only one next year. 

My mistake.  I misunderstood the article of him throwing a interception Lefthanded.  Oh well them I can say why would we want Little on his blind side them.  He would be better being move to the Right Tackle slot so Teddy would have a chance to see those who beat him with the speed rush.

The plan could be to draft both. Not pull a Rivera and use broken parts to make up a line. Okung only played 6 games last year and missed at least one almost every year in the league. Just something to think about while your writing me my next novel.

Wasn't saying Daley was the prime target for the LT position.. But since you want to be ultra focused on that 1 player and his draft position...

Jason Peter's undrafted 2004

Charles Leno jr. Drafted 7th round 2014

Kevin Beacham drafted 7th round 2012

Alehandro Villanueva undrafted 2010..

Does that work for you??

Still my point was you've invested in 2 OT (Little being the most important) already.. With Okung here now it's not a bad plan to see what you can do with them.. Since you're already paying them and don't have to bypass a good defensive prospect to get them...

Well if that is the plan cool.. But if it's not I guess you will be bitching all year and changing user pics and alt every week again.. 

Okung is also a 2x pro bowler with a 124 games experience.. And pretty much helps you get out of a bad contract without losing any draft picks or affecting the comp picks for next season.. You get what you can get when you're desperate...

Was this novel better for you sweetheart??
