We just got the guy from the Pats. It's funny, our O-Line failed for years because we ignored the interior part of it and just had tackles. Now, we got the interior locked up and need tackles. We got Tua, we really should go tackle if McKinney is unavailable. Lamb is tempting but that's a luxury position at this point.

McKinney is available. Take him or a tackle, but don't waste a 1st rounder on a running back. Literally a dime a dozen.

Dolphins selected USC OT Austin Jackson with the No. 18 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

This was the pick the Dolphins got from the Steelers in the Minkah Fitzpatrick trade. A two-year starter at left tackle in OC Graham Harrell's up-tempo Air Raid scheme, 20-year-old Jackson (6’5/322) earned first-team All-Pac 12 honors in his final year at USC. His 2019 tape showcases lackluster footwork and traits of a mid-round prospect, but note that Jackson donated bone marrow to his sister only two months prior to the Trojans' season opener, losing 25 pounds while recovering his hip flexibility. That could also explain why he was dominated by Iowa EDGE A.J. Epenesa in the 2019 Holiday Bowl. Fortunately, Jackson's 89th-percentile Adjusted SPARQ athleticism, as well as his formidable length and quickness, are reasons to be optimistic that he can develop into a quality starter in due time. Jackson may struggle in his first year out the gates but has the ceiling of a multi-year Pro-Bowler with proper development backing him. In Miami, he will have to play immediately, likely sliding in at left tackle ahead of cellar-dweller option Julie'n Davenport and next to free-agent pickup LG Ereck Flowers.

Same here, but they had to get at least 1 Tackle in the first round and you never know how drafts play out. Maybe a run on them would've happened again and they would be left with a guy in the 3rd round. Better to take one now and then the best player available at 26. That may still be McKinney.

No. It's tempting but they are just too easy to replace. Unless you have one that is super elite, it's not worth it. We can get a good one in the 2nd or 3rd round. If a RB was the last piece of the puzzle then so be it but we still need more.

One pick to go and then it is us again. If the Vikings select an OT like Ezra Cleveland, then McKinney can be ours. I mean, that would make it practically everyone's mock draft just with a reverse order.

We all wanted Tua then McKinney and then Josh Jones at OT, but here we got our OT at 18 and could get McKinney at 26.

Damnit, the fucking 49ers just traded with Minnesota and they're definitely taking McKinney. Alright, who's the next best fit?

I'd actually be happy if they took Cam Akers later on
