Honestly I would like to hear why. Trai Turner has more accolades including last year being the first year he didn't make seasonal honors since 2015. Norwell has basically disappeared since leaving here. 

You question his effort, but not Norwell. Why is that? Lastly, who cares how much effort you give if you flat out aren't that good.

Lastly, Trai Turner is only 27. He is a vet, but he is still young. Norwell is still young too at 29. I just don't get it.

Seasonal honors? He barely played half the season last year 😳

Norwell was overpaid on his last contract but if anybody's "disappeared", it's Turner.

I had no idea he was that young. He might play better now that he's unemployed and looking at being out of the league.

We need cheap oline depth, but would he be willing to have a slice of humble pie? After seeing some of the combos we had last year I would be willing to use about half of the remaining cap on the oline. We have to get that shored up or it wont matter who we got playing qb next year.

Careful, here comes the race card.

He’s not signing a vet min contract, and depending on how he felt about getting traded in the first place might not sign with us at all. But if we could get him at a decent rate, maybe 7mil or less a year, sure. He might not have been a legit pro bowler the last year with us but he was still good. Hell, bring back him and Norwell at mid range contracts if possible. 2nd rd LT-Norwell-paradis-Turner-Moton sounds good to me

Trai Turner is apparently fat as a 320lbs RG but Travelle Wharton wasn't fat as a 315lbs LG?

Huddle gonna huddle.

It seems like player weights rarely get updated though out their careers even though some clearly fluctuate. If I was betting money, Trai was north of 360 in recent years. Dude was getting to the point where his waistline needed to be measured in yards.

    • You all make some great points.  I love the OT Trapilo pick but it is a round too soon.  Tells me someone is doing their homework.  He is a solid pass blocking RT and we need pass blockers to keep Bryce nice. About S--I want an early S too, but Richardson was not bad when he played.  Most players improve the most between years 1 and 2.  There are some decent safeties in this draft later, so maybe I have been looking at the Corvettes in the showroom when I should have been kicking tires in the used SUV lot. Regardless, with Moton's knee concerns, age, contract, etc.  I really would like to see us draft a legit starting-caliber, second tier OT now.  I watched Trapoli at the Sr Bowl and he has really strong pass pro form.  33" arms (OK) and he is 6'8".  There are others I like as well: Cam Williams, Texas Donovan Jackson, Ohio St. Charles Grant, W&M Anthony Belton, NC State Emory Jones, LSU Our coaching staff just showed us how they can develop young players.  Wait until the third or fourth and get one of these guys.  Take a year to prepare them.  Sign BC to another 1-year contract for insurance.  If our OL coaches are an asset and they have a year to work with one of these OTs above, let them do their jobs. In that second round pick slot, maybe we can get that Safety--might have to move up a bit--I would not be surprised to see a draft day trade of Zavala.  If other teams were scouting us properly, they should have seen a potential starter buried on the depth chart.
