| Dallas Thomas - first rounder?
Ok, ok, it is the bleacher report, but I have not seen Dallas Thomas' name come up as a first rounder, ahead of Patterson, Hunter, and alot of big names.
Did I miss something, or is he just getting some LOVE from this guy at the bleacher report who has him going 16th to the Rams?! 2013 NFL Mock Draft: Latest Projections After Divisional Playoffs | Bleacher Report

| As long as it's not as a tackle, I could see him going late first round.

| i think, and have thought for some time, he projects as a guard - he certainly isnt the #1 guard on the board - unless you are the #1 guard on the board it is highly unlikely you will go in the 1st round - he will likely go 2-3 | |

| It's not unreasonable that he will be 1st round. WRs are everywhere and QBs are mostly mediocre picks. The go-get-'em picks will mostly be linemen, backers, and DBs. | |

| It's rare that I clink on a Bleacher Report story, and when I do I usually regret doing so.
This is one of those instances. | |

| Unless the OG is a road grader don't expect him to go before round 3 or 4. Thomas played out of position for 3 years before Tiny could get out there. He was a mediocre OT and an excellent OG. That experience at OT will be useful to teams that want guys that can play more than one position. |

|  Possible 1st, probable 2nd
For what a 1st round QB expects to get, I can't think of a QB I would draft this year. I think you would be better off trading to get a proven backup than drafting #1 and hoping he will start. Draft is deep with good WR. Thomas' strength is flexibility and experience both in years playing and learning new offensive schemes. He is a good solid player but maybe not exceptional. I would consider him a reach for the first round, but probably solid for late 2nd/early 3rd. | |

| I see him as a 3rd-5th round selection. Maybe an outside shot in the lower end of the 2nd it he has a good pre-draft (Senior Bowl, Combine, interviews, etc). | |

| He has knowledge and experience as a OT and OG so that will help him some because NFL teams like linemen that can play more than 1 position.
He's also proven he can learn more than 1 system and do well in them and that's a positive as well.
If the draft is short on good O Linemen then that could help him move up some and if a few teams have O linemen as a top priority for this years draft that could also help him some.
I hope he does well and represents Tennessee very well.
