I don't see how he's a project? He played LT at OU and is being talked about as the next best athletic T from OU. If he falls to 31 I'd guess it's because teams don't think he's a LT at the next level.

You're missing the point which is this draft is littered with guys that could become good pass blocking Left Tackles. He's not setting himself apart from the rest of that Tier 3 pack.

In result he could fall because teams simply think they can wait till Round 2 to fill that role.

Not going to guarantee that happens because 95% of this draft will be a total crap shoot but there's some reasons there as to why he could fall. Creed Humphrey was a slam dunk Center from Oklahoma and he slid all the way to the later part of the 2nd round for us. It happens.

Creed was a C though. This is a LT.

The draft is littered with good pass blocking LT's?

The draft is littered with projects that can turn into good pass blocking Left Tackles.

You missed the point.

Yeah, those guys get drafted high. He's already shown to be a good pass blocking LT at an elite level at a high level college.

If NFL teams think that, he aint' falling to 31. My comment was more toward DJ thinking he's separated himself from that pack. If not, I do agree he could go lower, but I dont' think teams would view him as a legit day 1 LT in that case.

Believe it or not, Left Tackles are also drafted after Thursday night.

Glad I could break that news for you.

That's a far cry from LTs that can come in and start at LT as a rookie at some point. If you take a guy in the 2nd or 3rd with the idea of red-shirting him, you get 3 years (maybe) of quality OT play from him. But if you can take a 1st rounder who may well be able to play in year 1, you're getting 5 years. That's a MASSIVE difference in value.

And even setting the bar lower, there are very very few OTs in this class that have the ability to be the kind of pass protector Harrison has shown capable of being even if they develop as well as you could possibly hope.
