2026 NFL Draft Discussion

[CheezWizHed]

I'm pretty surprised that we didn't go after the usual T/G (tackle in college, G/T tweener in pros) player in the draft or UDFAs.  That doesn't really give us much for development at T.

Morgan/Tom - Starters

Kinnard - Backup - maxxed out as a player.

Belton - could be an RT if needed. 

Development players:

• Glover - Third year, so probably his last chance to show growth. 
• Cooper - 2025 UDFA - High RAS player who played LT in college. 
• Banks - 2025 UDFA - Tall, but light.  Probably not a candidate at LT (never played there in college).  RT/G.

I suppose they didn't find the right fit in the draft and perhaps no one in the UDFA market was better than Cooper/Banks?

I think the latter.  There wasn't a lot of tackle depth this year.  

I watched 3 or 4 of Oregon's games last year and let's just say that I was not surprised that Isaiah World was not drafted.
