41. OT David Edwards, Wisconsin

40. IOL Dru Samia, Oklahoma

39. OT Greg Little, Ole Miss

37. IOL Garrett Bradbury, N.C. State

I dont want to pretend I've been watching a ton of IOL tape, but Bradbury is someone I was turned on to as an OZBS OL very early in the year, and so I've tried to watch his full games. He definitely qualifies. All of the guys you mentioned are quite nimble, but I think him or David Edwards would be the most natural fits.

Don't know about for Zone Blocking but if Greg Little is there, I'm taking him. He might be the best OT in the draft in my opinion

Yup. A monster offensive line makes the entire team better.

Assuming we stay at two I have zero issue with the next two picks being o-line. It seems there are good guards to be had in 2nd and 3rd rounds. Thing is I feel Kyle will stay with the current guys except maybe right guard.

Sadly, this is probably true.

I know it is still very early, but it really looks like this draft begins with the Raiders on the clock at 4. The first three picks seem destined to be: Bosa, Williams, and Allen (the Jets desperately want an edge rusher).

The Raiders are still in trading and tanking mode for at least one more year, so that fourth pick will probably be traded for a QB: Haskins, Lock or Jones.

Do you see us trading Solomon Thomas or Arik Armstead? I don't really see us taking Q Williams unless we do that.

Armstead is over $9 million with his fifth year option in 2019. The team does have the option of dumping him before the league year opens and not take a hit, but he graded out pretty well at Pro Football Focus, and team seems to have faith in him. The team also like Thomas more than the fan base, he just turned 23 last week, and he is not going anywhere.

Williams adds something different from these guys. He is a base down interior lineman, who can also get after the QB. Although he rushed from the inside on most passing downs, sometimes they would move him to the outside. So, while it might seem like overkill for some fans, Williams is simply too talented to bypass based on other needs. He just decimates offenses.

Add Kentavius Street to this mix inside. Considering how little the Niners have on the outside, I don't see how anyone can add as much to the team as a ER in Bosa or Allen. It would be easier for offenses to team up on Buckner and Williams with a triple team rather than double up on both Bosa/Allen and Buckner.

Dude, I can't see Haskins not going number 1. Bosa is ours.

If a quarterback does get taken No. 1 overall, John Lynch might sprint to the podium himself a la Ultimate Warrior.

Here's the thing, why would a team need to trade all the way up to #1 if they know, Arizona, San Francisco and New York don't need QB's? Trading up to 3rd overall pick is a helluva lot cheaper than trading up to #1 overall if you ask me!!
