I also doubt those guys would still be on the board. For me its trade up for Slater or stay put for CB/Edge.

Kyle Pitts has a longer wingspan than any WR or TE in the NFL (83 3/8") in the last 20 years Exploding head

Don't be......Darrisaw and AVT will both be solid players at NFL level, if the Bolts go that direction. I get the feeling if Sewell and Slater are off the board, Bolts go BPA, and that won't be an OLT. It won't surprise me if the Bolts do not pick an OT until the 3rd round. Can you see where the red parts above do not add up to me ? Or is it just me ? I take your being spooked to mean a concern about OT talent after Sewell and Slater. You should not be, as there will be solid starting OT's taken in this draft as late as early 3rd round, or so I believe. Now will the Bolts be one of those clubs able to discern which player is one of those late OT's, their track record implies that is highly unlikely. Of course if your being spooked is about the Bolts not taking an OT with the 13th pick if Sewell and Slater are off the board, your feelings are well placed. I believe the Bolts fall into two possible approaches. 1: They have identified an OT they feel will be there when they pick in the 2nd round, and go BPA with their first round pick. 2: They take Darrisaw or AVT, or some other OT with the 13th pick, and get panned in the media for reaching. Barring any trade offer TT can't refuse, I think they go with the first option/approach.

Would have been awesome if Lynn sucked just a couple more games and we could have got Pitts. A few pages back in this thread, I posted my cluster of preferred players with Sewell at #1 and Pitts at #2. That is still my belief and obviously neither of them will fall to 13 or probably not even slide down near enough for us to trade up for. But Pitts is scary good and the thought of him and Herbert playing together for the next decade is salivating! Some team in the top six will get an outstanding receiving threat, I just hope it won't be a divisional rival (via trade up).

The key missing point is finding a STARTING LEFT TACKLE , I have had enough with drafting lesser talent in the later rounds (Tevi, Pipkins Ect)

Sewell and Slater are off the board, you are on the clock, which OT are you taking? Wait, you are not taking an OT at 13th, instead you will go BPA, probably a CB. Ok, smart move, but now you are still in need of an OT, and watching them fly off the board as you wait for your second pick. Planning on trading back into the 1st round you say, might be smart, but what is the cost? Are you now reaching to solve the OT need? I could go on endlessly......being a GM is simply not easy. TT has a plan, the need at LOT is just too great to not have a plan.

TT has a plan, the need at LOT is just too great to not have a plan. 2 ways , easiest is to sign Villanueva who can fill the spot for the next 3 years or trade the pick to the Ravens for Brown then sign him to a new contract and fix it for the next 10 years. And you must be confusing my posts with others cause I never proposed trading back into the 1st round to get an OT.

I concur with the signing of Villanueva, suspect the cost is too great, or medicals, regardless as it has not happened. I would not endorse trading for Brown. No confusion, I was merely exploring options......and carrying on with the example of you making the decisions.
