At 234, OT, Iowa. Played LT.

4 year LT but said to be a Guard.

I haven't found anything on him yet, but inside is our greater need anyway

We didn’t draft any pure Guards or a Center. All, including Zabel are projects and hopes for becoming a productive IOL.

Unless our coaching staff can do miracles we will be in the same position as the last decade along the LoS.

I was wondering about the Zabel pick. He was listed as an OT on the draft tracker, but a OG elsewhere. I was wondering if they were looking to replace Lucas because he's reached the point with his knee that he's lucky to take the field half the year.

Most NFL guards played tackle in college, doesn't mean they're not guards. Many of them also played RB in HS...

Not all can make the adjustments. Just look at our history of Tackles to Guards transitions. It’s not a pretty sight.
