Took you a while to take an OL, but i love the one you got. D'Ante Smith needs to add weight, but he's got longer arms than most NFL tackles. Good feet for zone. Here's several clips from the Senior Bowl...

He could be a good mid round target for LG... we have plenty of picks late Day 2/early Day 3. Lol
@BarrNone55 You had me at Kellen Mond! The Mond pick between 134 to 143 earns an "A" grade on PFF draft simulator.
Love the Kevin Joseph pick. Mel Kiper thinks he could be a high riser on draft day.
Divine Deablo is a big safety. Looks like he has some physicality and good closing burst as a run defender. Was a WR in high school.
Plays like a linebacker. I would love to know his 40 time and how fluid his change of direction is. If Zimmer liked Jayron Kearse, I think he could do more with Deablo. Deablo seems to have better football instincts IMO.

Honestly, I like Franks much more as a developmental prospect. Watching Monds is torture. Wildly inconsistent. Joseph looks to have quite the upside. Saw quite a bit of Deablo. One of many plus sized S in this class.

I've been trying to break my own personal tendencies. Trying to get one with Horn or another top flight CB in Day 1 so I can practice chucking my tablet.

Barimore would be an A for need fulfillment, and a C- for value, imo.
Smith is probably a bad fit for what we do. Moses has just fallen off the face of the earth, much like Wade.
@"BarrNone55" said: Barimore would be an A for need fulfillment, and a C- for value, imo.You're right, Smith's best fit is in power-oriented schemes, but some people think he might have enough explosiveness and mobility to play tackle if needed... and be a productive player in more versatile roles.Smith is probably a bad fit for what we do.

You picked Josh Myers at 62 and many of the same athletic concerns about not being an overly dynamic player in space for outside zone concepts show up in his profile too.
Moses is a good fit for a 4-3 and good value if he fall out of the top 125.
Do you really think Charles Snowden a 3-4 OLB that stands up on the line of scrimmage and rushes the passer a lot is a better fit and value for the Vikings?
I will admit Snowden is super fun to watch!
Snowden plays pretty much the same way Barr did in college. Lots of tools to work with.
Just re-read Myers profile in TDN. Definitely not a perfect fit for zone schemes, but sufficient. Plus, medicals on Smith might have him off many boards altogether.
Moses is not remotely the player he was pre-injury.
