Is Dawand a Right or Left Tackle or both? I do think he could be an absolute steal in the draft although the competition he played wasnt great, he is also only a rookie in his first pre-season game.

I'm interested in the play breakdown, but didnt he face Bryce Huff and Will McDonald, who both were receiving high praise coming in? Both guys are roster players, including a #15 pick, not exactly street free agents or undrafted guys.

100% true, and on one play I noticed him block the outside edge player, then that player falls back and follows the play and Jones then instinctually blocks down and hels the guard double the tackle when he had no one else to block, really high level blocking instincts there.

I didnt see him on run blocking though, with his size, reach and quickness I am just thinking he is more of a LT, but i have no idea, didnt watch the run blocking, maybe he is road grater on that end too. Really asking RCF here, but great point about playing the #15 pick and still no pressures.

Since he isn't a starter, he is going to be developed to be able to fill both positions. He's a swing tackle.

In the draft process, I had him as a late first round pick and a day 1 starter at RT.

That doesn't mean he couldn't play LT.

I think he'll end up at whatever position he has the first chance to start at.

Bubba Bolden anyone know anything about this guy. PFF graded him out by far the best in the preseason game. Just wondering if he has any chance.

I just remember following his high school career a bit because he went to the same high school as Tate Martell and I think OSU had an offer out to him, I didn’t follow him much in college or his transition to the pros but I recall him being knowin for effective run support and had good size.

Just saw that he wasn’t even drafted but transferring to Miami can do that to you. I’m sure someone will be able to offer something more substantive.

I remember him because his mom had big cans.
