Id be interested to see the breakdown of how 1st Round OTs perform over a career vs OTs drafted 2nd round and later. Just going off memory and perception ... it seems like a large majority of premier OTs go 1st round. im sure there are some 2nd rounders that pan out and maybe one or two late round picks ..... but it just seems like if you want a true anchor, you have to go 1st round pick for a OT, more than any other position.
I guess, id rather go G, C or TE in rounds 3-7 vs ending up w a Geron Christian.
Im surprised there arent more college TEs who have no shot at playing TE at the NFL level bc of lack of speed but have the footwork and physical make up arent being groomed for OT spots like Dunbar went from WR to CB.
