Four offensive linemen who have NFL potential worked out in Norman. Phil Loadholt (6-7 7/8, 332 pounds), Duke Robinson (6-5 1/4, 330 pounds), Jon Cooper (6-2 1/8, 290 pounds) and Brandon Walker (6-2 7/8, 306 pounds) drew three offensive line coaches to the pro day — Detroit’s Pat Morris, Buffalo’s Sean Kugler and Miami’s Dave DeGuglielmo. Vikings head coach Brad Childress and vice president of player personnel Rick Spielman also were there.

Could it be Robinson in round two?

doesnt mean we are deffinatly picking one of there linemen it just means they have 2 really good linemen that we want to see workout. loadholt and robinson are both really good.

i think his point was we are looking at guards, not that we were necessarily gonna draft one of these specific guys

While we may not get a guard day one, you better believe it will be no latter than the 3rd. Everyone wants a pass catching TE but it seems to me we will def be taking a guard before one of them. I can't really argue against seeing I'm always up for improving the trenches but it looks like we wont get my boy Coffman.

I get the feeling Duke Robinson won't be there in round 2 at all. Some see him as one of the better G prospects in years. In a perfect world, we trade down, get at least another 2nd, and go ahead and take this guy in the mid/late first. We then go after DE (Ayers, Johnson) and LB with our other two picks in the top 45.

Sigh.. in a perfect world.

I Think they are just making their rounds.

I think we sign Simmons or Bentley or trade for Waters before the draft.

That said, Im sure they want to cover there bases in case they cant/dont get on of those 3 before the draft.

Robinson's stock is falling quickly. Loadholt is a RT who I really can't see moving inside at this point. Cooper is an OC who has Round 6 or so stock and Walker is the OG with similar rankings.

loadholt is a freakin load. Hes reminiscent of Langtson, size-wise. Huge man. I do recall he had some issues staying with the faster ends that he played against the few big games I watched of OU.

I think Loadholt is a right talkle prospect only in the NFL. His feet are not quick enough to play left tackle.

But maybe OBD is planning on not having Peters and drafting Loadholt for RT and pushing Langston back over to LT...
