Any OL worth drafting high? Rather do that if we can't grab a QB.

Do we trade every pick we have next year to move up? Or maybe no team is willing to trade out of their place next year. If we believe that one of these guys is a true franchise QB -- solves the QB position for us for 10+ years, then yes. We do everything possible within our power to move up and get our guy. If there is one guy that really stands out to Macc/Bowles/Bates, they can't just cross their fingers and sit and wait and hope he drops. Unfortunately, if the team sitting 1 or 2 feels the same way about the guy, there probably is no price we could pay to get him. And if we do make a move where we put together a package of high picks, we better not be wrong about the guy, because it will set the franchise back another 5 years.

MIke McGlinchey, Notre Dame will probably be the first OL off the board. Connor Williams from Texas could also go top 15, depending on his recovery from knee surgery. Other guys could play themselves into the discussion (Mitch Hyatt, Clemson or Martinas Rankin, Miss State), but does not appear as if there will be a lot of options at OT in the Top 10, although with the draft 6 months away, that could change.

Now you are asking a different question. If I don't trust my team's management to make these type of decisions, then I have the wrong management in place. The concept holds -- do everything possible, move heaven and earth to get the right guy. If you don't trust management to do that, why trust them with your franchise at all. Have a different management team in place to do it.
