Maybe I'm way off there.

I mean it's too early to judge on guys drafted much sooner than say 2018. And Brian O'Neil and Orlando Brown are probably the 2 best Ts out of that class. Alex Cappa is solid. All 2nd day picks.
Kaleb McGary is probably the best T so far from 19 - went 31st. Jawaan Taylor at 35. Ramczyk went 32 in '17, Cam Robinson went 34.
'16 was mostly chalk. 20 is trending that way. But I don't think they've unlocked a blueprint by any means. I mean Jordan Mailata went in the 7th in 2020 and played really well when Peters went down and has become one of the better young Ts in the game. I think Larry Borom may follow a similar arc in Chicago.
It isn't easy, but it's doable.
