Garnett has been a healthy scratch most of the season however is pushing to start now because of Davis retiring again. Spriggs is an absolute mystery and hasn't seen the field in GB. Whitehair is a center that can play guard. Center isn't our problem since we have the #6 center according to PFF and have Easton who showed he's quite solid. He wasn't going to unseat Boone. So his only hope would've been Fusco. However how do any of those lineman help our current situation? Interior isn't a problem outside of Fusco who was given another shot to come back to what he was before at RG but it didn't work out. Spriggs could be another Clemmings for all we know. And he was the only tackle taken from #23 all through round 2. So it was either him or nobody in the first two rounds.Mothman wrote: Yeah! Don't you dare, Steve!
Joshua Garnett was sitting right there and went just a few picks later. Jason Spriggs and Cody Whitehair were available too. If they felt that pick was too high for one of them, perhaps they could have managed a trade down.
There are almost always other options. It's not like they were required to draft Treadwell, although he could turn out to be a very good player for them in the long run. Only time will tell.
It's not as easy as many think. You named 3 guys. Two of which are mysteries and one that's at a position opposite of where our main struggles are and that's offensive tackle.
