A late round guard or center? Sure, no problem, they need depth at those position or at least one guy versatile enough to play inside or at center.
But it just doesn't make any sense to me to draft a tackle when they're heading into the season with Fisher, Schwartz, Niang and most likely, a true veteran Swing Tackle, especially considering they could use their first three picks on starters, whether it's at Safety or CB or DE or LB or WR.
Those skill position guys are far more important, IMO, than drafting a tackle to sit on the bench.

I guess the real discussion is this-
We can either throw cap dollars at the line, or we can draft young players. I'd like to get younger and cheaper there, while improving the talent level.
I don't think anybody wants to see a scenario where the SB happens again.
