Assuming MHJ is gone and we pick top 5, would you go LT or trade down? Braxton has proven himself to be a very capable tackle so I’d kind of be less enthused about spending a top pick on him. Maybe grab Kool Aid McKinstry and resign JJ would be the play.
He may prove me wrong but I view Braxton as a “good enough” LT, more like a Charles Leno than a true franchise guy. Personally, I would love to see us take Olu if he’s viewed as a perennial all-pro kind of player. The best and most consistent offenses in the NFL are almost always the ones with the most dominant O-Line, e.g. Eagles, Lions, Ravens & Cowboys in recent years.
If we were to add a true stud LT to our core of Wright and Jenkins, we can then have Braxton as a swing tackle or see how he can do at guard. We’d still need a C, but at this point our line goes from “good enough” to borderline dominant. Personally I believe this is what Fields needs to meet his potential (along with better coaching), but it is also a very important luxury for a young QB were we to go that route.
