I find it hard to believe myself that we have our pick of OL and we walk away with a WR - even if it is Kevin White - who is plenty deserving of a top 10 pick.

But DJ does have a pretty decent track record with mocks - especially early in the draft season.

maybe its because the linemen aren't all that good this year

That's the exact opposite of what I've been hearing about this draft. I've heard it's a pretty weak draft but the OL position is still pretty strong. Not saying you're wrong since no one knows for a few years but I'm just surprised since that's the first time I've heard someone say that.
 
I don't think this crop of olinemen are as good as last year's, at least at the top of the draft.

I think the oline is deep but not great. I think you can get some good value in the 2nd and 3rd rounds. I also think the center position is pretty good. There is some talent that could start day 1 that can be had from the 3rd to 5th rounds, like Andy Gallik, Boston College, BJ Finney, Kansas State, Jake Smith, Louisville and a guy who is quickly becoming one of my favorites Shaquille Mason, Georgia Tech who is a devastating run blocker. Needs some work in pass pro but has improved and could be had in the 5th round. Mason did play some G at GTECH also.

I'd disagree. I'd say it's about the same at the top, and deeper in general.

Robinson was average at best at LT.
Matthews, if I remember correctly, was pretty mediocre most of the time he did play. And I never saw him as a LT. He's a RT.
Lewan at 11, I think, graded out the best for OTs.

Martin probably had the best year of any lineman last year and Scheriff, at OG, is the same kind of player.

I think the OG class this year is far deeper.
 
I don't know if any of these guys at the top will be left tackles, they all seem to grade out as right tackles or guards. This class is probably deeper but I don't really think its as good at the top.
 
Maybe it's just these Oline guys aren't rated high enough to take that high. I don't see a GRob in this class or a Kalil. It seems like a bunch of tackles that will project as guards.
There's a lot of depth at Oline in this class, but seems to be missing the star power.

It's kinda like picking a DJ Fluker over a Beckham.

You could be right. It's hard to determine what all the talking heads mean when they say the O-line class is strong. They always try and hype each draft so it's hard to gauge just how elite it is relative to others. Regardless, the O-line depth should be at least decent enough to find a couple players for the Rams.
 
In 2013 teams thought that OL'ers were very important. Five OL'ers went in the top 10, fact was 3 OT's went in the top 3.

In 2014 three OL'ers went in the top 11.
 
If we get Kevin White AND La'el Collins is still there at 30, I think the Rams will trade up and get him...

They're not gonna get "Martinized" again...
