It is easy to criticize. Very few things are perfect, so there is always something to find fault with. There is little value in criticizing Howard. He is just another player.... doing the best he can. Dillard is special ! He was the best LT in this draft. This head coach and front office doesn't seem to be able to fathom the value or need level, of team/positions/need/luxury. Last night was an epic failure. They traded up one spot to get a player last season, and whoever the he was, he was not nearly as dire the need as was Dillard. Then, to react with knee jerk response, and reach to their next rated left tackle, whom we could have gotten with one of our second round picks, was just as bad. I'm not sure if anyone on the board feels that we have right tackle solved .... but we don't. McGary was right there for us .... but we over reacted and jumped on Howard, who had played left tackle in 2017, but was relegated to right tackle for his redshirt senior tackle .... maybe their are plans for him are on the right side - keeping Davenport at LT .... in which case .... last night was sheer genius !!
