Combine that with the fact that there are 10-12 tackles with 1st or second round grades, and the fact that there were 7 other tackles taken in the first round last year, and several other teams still have a LT entrenched, and that there are only 3 QBs with second round grades, and yeah, I'd say the LT supply outweighs the demand.

The three teams you named (Oakland, Cincy, and Jacksonville) are obvious trade partners and wouldn't have to give up astronomical amounts to get Monroe. Also, there is a big gap between Monroe and the rest of the tackles. It's not just about quantity, it's about quality. Especially if you need one to start day 1. It is very probable that if we end up trading the pick, we trade it for Monroe, not for Sanchez.
