Agreed, I don't think either guy (Barnett or Harris) has the high bust potential of a Bjoern Werner.

I do worry about a guy like Takk McKninley who's so raw in so many areas and I wouldn't be surprised if he turned into Werner under our coaching staff.

Draft Lamp

Put him in there with Kelley, Mewhort and Castanzo and that's a solid line

Even if Castanzo retires/moves on, The interior of the line is set for years.

The pass rusher or Middle Linebacker has to be lights out that's available at 15 : has to be a beast to match that impact imo.

the indianapolis colts are one of several nfl teams reported to be hosting alabama linebacker reuben foster on a visit in the days ahead, per josh norris of rotoworld.

"on top of visiting kc and jax this week, i'm told lb reuben foster will also visit the colts, bengals, saints, lions, titans & ravens," norris tweeted friday evening.

don't let him leave

Lamp is starting to make a lot of sense.

The interior of the oline could potentially be the strong suit of this team which is something we have desired for a long time.

Not to mention you can still draft a decent LB or pass rusher in the 2nd.

Lets not kid ourselves because after Solomon Thomas and Garrett, the pass rushing talent falls off a f**king cliff.

Is Lamp a better linemen than what we'll draft at 15 in either a lber or pass rusher? Most likely

The kid is solid all around. He's a notch below Kelly imo.

Nice safe pick.

I think once the pick is made everyone on here is going to be mad, puzzled, and a few will threaten to boycott the season...

He is taking BPA regardless of need.

There will be so many good players available and so many needs that it will be hard to be mad at the pick. Even if they take Lamp like you want, it still fills a need, unlike the Dorsett pick in 2015. I think a lot of us were legitimately upset at that one.

Sounds about right.

If it's TE or WR (or QB, obviously) I hit the roof.

Otherwise, I'l live, assuming that the guy is actually good.

The guy being some bizarre reach that sends Mel Kiper screaming is the wildcard, but I'm assuming/hoping that with Ballard being a rookie GM, that he'll probably go chalk with his first ever pick (and the Chiefs, as I recall, don't seem to tend to just reach for players weirdly like say the Dolphins), so as long as the guy actually IS reasonably considered the best player available and not at one of those positions, then fine.
