re: If Brock Bowers or Rome Odunze are still on the board at 14, do you take one of them?

Yes

There are a dozen OL in the top 50, the difference between the guy at 14 and the guy at 45 isn’t that much. You aren’t finding an Odunze or Bowers, nothing close

I honestly think one might really fall. We know Jayden, Maye, Williams, McCarthy, Nabers, Alt, Harrison Jr., Dallas Turner. That’s 8 picks we know are coming off the board. I can’t believe i’m saying this but if the opportunity to move up 2-4 spots presented itself I wouldn’t be mad if we traded up for Bowers. All the great teams have stars at TE. Juwan Johnson is a decent starting TE but Bowers would be a literal game changer.

Most all top O-linemen are usually drafted in the early 1st rd. Skill position players are hit or miss. How many TEs are legitimate difference makers in the nfl and how many of them were first rounders? I actually like Brian Thomas over Odunze. Let’s invest in WR when we have a franchise QB

I’d take Legette over Odunze. And I think Bowers will not live up to the hype.
I’d rather a taller TE. Have to go tackle with that first pick. But I’d rather them trade down.

Exactly. If an immediate impact player isn't there at 14, and the top OT's are gone, it would almost make the most sense to trade back a few spots imo. You get a similar talent OL anyway.

This right here. This is a stacked draft class. Odunze and Bowers are legit top 5 talents. If one of those are available then you draft them. We can grab OT in round 2.
