Round 6: Cole Van Lanen

[Balls2TheWalls]

Big agree about wanting hard cuts. I just think that as of right now this guy is likely a practice squad guy. Even if you put Bakh on the PUP (and all accounts say he is well ahead of schedule, so sitting him until week 6 might not be the play), I have a hard time seeing where they fit him on the roster. I think right now, without Bakh, you are starting Turner at LT and either Elgton or a rookie who makes a huge step at RT. I think they are likely very comfortable with Lucas Patrick and Runyan at guard and it would be difficult to see them picking Myers not to start him.

LT - Bakh (1) / Turner / Nijman (6)
LG - Jenkins (2) / Runyan (7)
C - Myers (3) / Patrick
RG - Patrick (4) / Stepaniak (8)
RT - Turner (5) / Newman (9)

I think right now that is what you are looking at, possibly 9 OL. I think Van Lanen and Hanson are your cuts, with them likely to try to get Van Lanen on PS to try to get him some strength in the lifting and conditioning program. I like that offensive line a lot, just not sure how Van Lanen fits into it right now.

Close your eyes during an interview and he sounds like Paul Walter Hauser (specifically Keith from Kingdom).
