@mrjiggyfly I am surprised Mims got taken, but I’m happy with this pick, you?
Center Day 2. Would love to snag Barton or JPJ

Troy Fautanu has established himself as a premier pass protector, showcasing exceptional footwork, agility, and the ability to neutralize advanced pass rush techniques. His ability to maintain pocket integrity is a standout trait His technique in pass sets, especially his hand usage and ability to redirect rushers, reflects a high football IQ and adaptability on the line.
However, transitioning to the run game, Fautanu's tape shows areas for growth. While he possesses the requisite burst and mobility for effective run blocking, his execution lacks consistency. To elevate his game, focusing on refining his pad level, drive, and hand placement will be crucial. Developing a more consistent anchor and enhancing his ability to generate push at the line of scrimmage will round out his skill set, making him a more complete lineman.
From a draft perspective, Fautanu's quality in pass protection positions him favorably, with the potential for an early selection. His skill set offers immediate value, particularly for teams emphasizing pass-heavy offenses. If he can bridge the gap between his pass-protection excellence and run-blocking potential, Fautanu could evolve into a complete lineman,
Given the demand for solid pass-protecting tackles in the NFL he probably won't last past day one.
You'd hope. Especially since Dan Moore is the competition.So he’s gotta start day 1 given his age right?
He better start day 1. He's almost Moores ageTroy Fautanu Offensive Tackle Washington | NFL Draft Profile & Scouting Report

With this write-up, I 100% think Fautanu should be their LT and Jones should move to RT. Jones is a great run blocker and should use his athleticism more there.

They are getting love for this pick but really all they did was sit there and draft the guy who fell to them that pretty much any fan with the internet would have taken.Eagles are great at drafting.
