I remember an A&M fan asking who he was like 3 weeks ago when Greg was projected 2nd pick

They still think there is no way Matthews goes after Grob

But Jake Matthews is the best OT by far

Matthews is dead on reliable and is a known quantity, he's very polished in his technique as well. Greg is one of the most talented LTs to come out of the draft the last decade but he's still raw in terms of technique and is still getting stronger. Both will have long careers provided they avoid the injury bug.

Cyrus lost a lot of money the last two games, he was owned by Lawson in the IB and OU's DEs had his number as well.

Jake is the safer pick. There is no doubt in my mind he'll have a long successful NFL career at tackle, guard, or center.

Robinson might have a little something extra to him. I expect both to go in the top 10 and Jake probably going second.

Here's hoping one of those two is a STL Ram after they trade down and snag a extra pick.

Both will be really good OTs, really would like to see who is the quicker one.

Give me Robinson, he is a fierce run blocker and has much more upside. Matthews is a safe pick, nothing flashy.

Hope the Falcons get either. No need to get into a pissing contest, as they're both beasts.

congrats on having him go 4th instead of 5th. means he will have a MUCH better career than Matthews and he is a MUCH better player than Matthews

Robinson still needs to prove he can pass protect

Does Robinson even remember how to pass block?

20 yard shuttle is clearly the most important metric.
