    OT or OL in general? I don't know how their Guard/Center situation is. If they, let's say, have a player that plays both T and G they could take DeCastro and shift that player over. But, if they're stocked up well in the middle, they'll be forced to draft the best available tackle.

    yeah i dont know much about there interior line - if they have a guy who can swing outside than they go guard - if not they may have to make a play for reiff.

    Maybe not- Eagles just signed LT Demetress Bell to a reported 5 year deal.

    More like definitely not. Peters is elite, Bell is fine for a year, potentially a very good player down the line if Peters has trouble coming back. The staff their turned Evan Mathis into a top 3 guard in the NFL, Bell has all the tools to be dominant, in which case they'll be a good spot next year with he, Peters, and Herremans all locked up long term.

    I think it's more likely they take Barron at this point, or one of the defensive tackles available. They're not very old up front, but they're not very deep either, and with what happened with Mike Patterson last year, they're going to need to be vigilant.
