As would I, in particular if an elite one is in the draft (IF we have a full one next year). Guards still go in the first round but WAAAY later, even the best prospects like Grubbs this year.

You can get a good guard in round 3.

For some reason guards have become WAY overvalued this off season. This is arguably the easiest position on the team. Any decent Olinemen should be adequate at guard. It is the reason I am terribly confused about all the money guys like Dock have gotten. Most coaches in the league prescribe to the "just stick the best leftover olinemen you got in at guard".

Think of it this way. Could Samuels be a probowler at guard? Yeah
Could Dock make money like he did at tackle? No way in hell. At tackle Dock is fighting to make a team. Any team. You just take up space an don't let the guy by. The only moving you do is on pulls and then you are just running and hitting something. Not much technique or skill required.

The difference between Grubbs and any random guard taken in the 3rd will be small really.

We got Dock in the 3rd and Thomas was a late 2nd rounder. The best guards in the league don't too much more for you than Dock or Thomas do really.
