Braden Smith, Auburn, OG

Auburn G Braden Smith produced a composite ranking in the 83rd percentile at the NFL Scouting Combine.

Smith (6'6/315) is considered one of the strongest players in the class, so it's no surprise he ranked near the top of offensive players with 34 reps in the bench press. He also ran well -- or reasonably well, considering his size -- which should place him right in the middle of the hunt for being one of the first guards off the board. NFL.com's Lance Zierlein compares Smith to Kevin Zeitler.

Yup! Braden is a stud, I like Nelson and Wynn slightly more, and Hernandez slightly less, but Braden looks like he could be the best value pick of the lot.

At this point those guy might be 1st rd to high end 2nd rd picks (Nelson top 5 imo)

Smith/teller/Corbett are guys I hope we look at

You might be right, and I like Corbett, not sure I'm Teller after SB, but everyone thought Forrest Lamp was a guaranteed 1st rounder, and he fell into the 2nd, team's aren't as high on Guards as the media or fans.

I thought Teller looked fine overall at the SB..he didn't win every single one-on-one drill but that's fine.

you'd better not be comparing Nelson to Lamp lol

The 49ers could draft two guards this year and be set for like 8 to 10 years. So many high quality prospects like Smith.

No not at all, just can see everyone going a little lower than projected.

Absolutely this, it's a great class, I want one pure Guard and then another C/G or G/T prospect.
