So I think we know what we have from FA, not going to get much more, watch today as they somehow wiggle into a starting RG, so lets take a look at some positions that need filled. OT, OG, O speed WR, TE to start. That should be available in the 2nd and 5th rounds.
I'll make a thread of each one, or maybe OL, reciever not sure yet, to make it a little easier to keep track of. Using DraftTeks big board. www.drafttek.com/2020-NFL-Draft-Big-Board/Top-NFL-Draft-Prospects-2020-Page-1.asp
OT's in the top 100

JOSH JONES HOUSTON OT
Overview
Early tape would suggest that Jones is a raw, developmental project in need of substantial technique work, but tape study later in the season suggests a level of improvement that creates additional intrigue for the long, athletic left tackle prospect. To be clear, he needs plenty of work with his pass sets and footwork, but most of his issues appear to be coachable. He's a good fit for a move-oriented rushing attack and has the traits and talent to become a future starter if he continues to develop with coaching.
*Probably not a guy we will target if his best place is a rush based O, but he's obviously got the talent for the move zone scheme Nagy likes the 10-15 times they do run. I also think they will be looking at RT over LT as Massie is more cuttable/replaceable next year then Leno is. He also likely wouldn't be there regardless as he's at or near a 1st round prospect

AUSTIN JACKSON USC OT
Overview
Early-entry tackle prospect who is raw but gifted and is likely to be coveted by a variety of teams, thanks to his true left tackle traits. Jackson has loads of athletic ability and play talent that is waiting to be developed and harvested. Inconsistent hand placement and footwork could be exploited early on if teams try and rush him into the starting lineup, but issues are correctable. He's scheme-diverse with potential guard flexibility if he improves his strength. He could become an early starter but may offer a wider split between floor and ceiling than some teams might like.
*Again LT more then RT, but sounds like he could do either, and could be a guard option also. One bonus is the Bears don't need a starter this year, but next year so he'll get the time he needs to develop.

PRINCE TEGA WANOGHO AUBURN OT
Overview
A late-comer to the sport, Wanogho gained over 50 pounds and has gone through a crash course in football experience since stepping onto campus as a raw athlete with just a year of high school experience. His shorter arms will be an issue against long-limbed defenders, but instinctive, quick hands and an ability to swat and re-establish as a hand fighter should help counter that concern. The footwork and body control are just OK, but he's loose-hipped and tremendously athletic with rare recovery ability when beaten. He may never be a plus run blocker, but he should keep improving with additional work and experience. Wanogho's NFL play may be inconsistent, but his talent and ability to keep rushers off his quarterback is what matters most, and it should make him a long-time starter with development. Very late-comer to the sport, but possesses excellent athletic ability and improving skill-set to handle NFL pass protection on the left side. His issues are more technical and experience-based than physical.
*Again another LT prospect so probably not the guy we would actually target as Leno is likely hear for at least 1 more year. but another great prospect at OT available in the 2nd.

ISAIAH WILSON GEORGIA OT
Overview
Big, broad right tackle prospect with outstanding physical traits and above-average potential. Wilson's play was a bit uneven depending on his matchup, but his level of play showed improvement in-season. He's a little inconsistent hitting his landmarks as a zone blocker but should fit nicely into a man-based blocking scheme. A potential lack of range in pass protection could lead to over-sets and subsequent troubles with inside counters. Wilson has elite size and length. There's buzz surrounding his NFL projection, but early work might be needed for both his footwork and technique in order to play with desired consistency as a starter.
*Well first RT prospect, but more of a man based scheme, and Nagy runs a zone based, sounds like he could eventually and w/work become a zone based blocker though.

HAKEEM ADENIJI KANSAS OT
Overview
Durable four-year starter at tackle who might be asked to prove himself as an interior blocker on the next level. Adeniji understands and displays technique, but it tends to get sloppy when his footwork gets him behind in the rep. He was an imperfect fit in Kansas' move-oriented running game, but could compete for a roster spot in a man blocking scheme where he should be able to play with better control, consistency and push at the point of attack. His experience at tackle boosts his pass pro credentials if he's moved inside.
*OT likely to move OG, and better set for man blocking so probably no one the Bears would consider

EZRA CLEVELAND BOISE STATE OT
Overview
Athletic left tackle able to make all outside zone blocks in the run game, but in dire need of additional mass and functional strength. Tape work can be tricky as Cleveland suffered a turf toe injury in his second game of the 2019 season and was unable to practice for much of the year. Issues anchoring and redirecting edge pressure are independent from his injury, but determining the impact of that injury on his play is challenging. He plays with patience and technique but lacks base width and contact balance. Cleveland has the athleticism to play swing tackle for a zone-based offense but needs to get much stronger to hold up as a starter.
*This might well be the guy the Bears are looking for if they are wanting to take a OT early. Swing zone tackle, that can be given the year he needs to add weight/strength but can be an eventual starter on either side.
I'll make a thread of each one, or maybe OL, reciever not sure yet, to make it a little easier to keep track of. Using DraftTeks big board. www.drafttek.com/2020-NFL-Draft-Big-Board/Top-NFL-Draft-Prospects-2020-Page-1.asp
