Your beloved LT might be a head case too so he's not worth drafting. Nobody would be if that's the case.

Everything in the draft is a calculated risk. Every dollar spent in FA is a calculated risk. Every player trade is a calculated risk.
The risk lowers as players show the ability to effectively do things in college games and understand concepts during meetings and workouts as well as show on tape how they matched up against players that ended up in the nfl or were drafted.
You may think the risk is minimal staying out of trades and drafting at 31...Veach might look at the risk in 3-5 of the OTs much lower than the rest of the pool.
I won’t be shocked if we use premium resources to move up to get someone they identify and a franchise left tackle, if one falls far enough where Veach can go get him.
