I’ve been preaching protecting Aaron Rodgers since 3+ years ago (literally) while he was on a 20,000,000 contract. We’ve largely failed him as our focus became D and then D again, followed by D.I’m ok with an OT, however we are not in a desperate position either and there will be some solid prospects at #30, #44 etc.. and later.Bulaga is as good as they come while he’s on the field. We need to develop an OT behind him, not put him on the bench. That’s a terrible use of available resources and does not align with getting the best talent on the field. IF Bulaga makes the final roster he pushes the “immediate” need meter at RT down a bit.If we now compound the problem by making the mistake of waiting all these years at OL and then overcompensate by choosing an OT and miss out on a generational TE, WR, Edge or whoever is clearly the best talent? That’ll just be more of the same old “playing it safe”. Going for an OT with our head in the sand to who else is on the board while finally having a top #12 pick doesn’t sound very smart.That said, if we can somehow manage a trade back and acquire aanother 2nd or 3rd rounder in the process and get an OT in the teens where they will likely fall that makes sense.</blockquote>
