Has Scherff at #13 with the Saints. Has Peat at #9 going as the first OL. Seems to be the trend. Not that Scherff hurt himself but Peat had a really good combine.

The Saints could end up cutting one of their guards and couldn't do any
better in adding a replacement in the draft if Scherff is still
available here. I've said before I see Scherff as a high-floor addition
on the offensive line, because even if he doesn't stay at tackle I think
he can become a dominant guard pretty early on. The player isn't a
facsimile, but you can make a comparison to how Dallas drafted Zack
Martin and moved him inside as a rookie and saw him flourish; I think
the Saints can count on immediate dividends from Scherff. He's one of
the more dominant run-blocking linemen we've seen in the draft in the
past few years, and he brings experience and the ability to take on the
job like a professional right away.
