I could see us signing Eric Winston to a short term deal (1 year) and drafting a kid in the 2nd or 3rd round to develop and eventually take over at RT. I believe that our coaches think Martin is our long term answer at LT, so I expect him to start there this season. While seeing Long go sucks, I think we all saw this coming months ago. Now it's time to turn the page and move on. This years draft is supposedly very deep in terms of offensive line, I expect we'll take at least two linemen to develop and eventually start.
I like that. I'd go with Winston and Terron Armstead, an athletic zone guy in round 2
If we go with a rookie I'd like to see us get Lane Johnson from Oklahoma at 12 or D.J. Fluker if he falls to the 2nd round. Both guys are great prospects. I also really like Barrett Jones from Alabama. The guy played three positions on that Alabama offensive line, and he played all three at a high level, including left tackle. I think he'd be a great player to add because of his versatility.
