So, it looks like Bill wasn't kidding when he recently stated that he isn't a big fan of drafting for "need".
Both are former Georgia Bulldogs and both were Seniors -- which Bill likes and both show versatility. Both have all-pro potential.
Wynn provides options for the interior OL. He could replace Thuney this season if Bill thinks he can't add some muscle to his game or provide a replacement for Shaq Mason who might command more free agency cash than we feel like paying for a Guard. I've read speculation that Wynn can move to Center and he also played very well at for the Dawgs at LT last season in an emergency role despite being a shade under 6'3".
He's extremely quick and fun to watch. He explodes into defenders and gets plus movement and has excellent feet and fluid movement skills. He's really, really good and shouldn't need a lot of development to contribute. Just a solid player who projects to be a really good pro. He's not a 325 pounder, but he pops people like one and he is able to pull and hit on the run at a high level.
One thing Wynn can do as well or better than any of the OT prospects coming out is the ability to cut off wide speed. That is the key trait you need at that position and he does it better than McGlinchey or Kolton Miller. Logic would dictate that he isn't long enough to play LT in the NFL, but that skill means he can at least play there in a pinch and I wouldn't completely rule him out as an OT right off the bat. It's a longshot, though.
I was very surprised at his selection, but after considering what he brings you can easily see why we liked him.
Wynn is a man, too, not a kid. He reminds me of Wilfork -- fully grown up before he even suits up.
I never really watched Michel until he had that King Hell performance in the playoffs vs. Oklahoma, which was extremely impressive. He doesn't wiggle a whole lot, but sticks his foot in the ground and takes off. Here is a highlight clip and it's worth finding #77 Isaiah Wynn who clears the track for him on a lot of these runs. His guy is usually knocked 5 yards downfield.
