Ill say that much.

Im not a big fan of his TBH.

He is sound, but isnt as good as some claim he is. He is benefiting from not being tested by really good pass rushers last year and is a solid linemen.

He will never be a probowl quality left tackle IMO.

He would lock up the right side for 10 years with quality play and would give us insurance against Albert leaving next year.

The guy will remind everyone of John Tait.

The question is: Do you spend the #11 overall pick on that?
To answer your last point: I don't think so. There's a difference between drafting a RT at 11, and drafting an LT at the same spot and moving a former first round pick to RT. The latter scenario is akin to drafting an LT, and having to pick another one four years later if he's a bust. If that were to happen, though, we'd have a hell of an RT instead of a first-round LT bust. Much better scenario.
