I believe the Eagles have drafted one offensive linemen in the first round since 1999. And I think maybe only or two in the 2nd round.
I'm all for using the 2nd-4th rounds to stock up on OL

Well he was second team in 2001. According to Profootballreference.com he is a 6 time pro-bowler. So I guess you could argue it either way.
I definitely think you can get guys later and turn them into gems but we have to commit to it.
It seems that in recent drafts there has been a pretty good success rate with 1st round o-lineman.
I worry about taking the QB because of the examples of teams being stuck in mediocrity for years if they get the pick wrong. I think there are enough questions about both Clausen and Bradford to let them slip past 4.
