“#Day 2 about protecting the new QBs<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

Let Joe Burrow\u2019s season-ending ACL injury serve as a painful reminder.<\/p>\n

The Bengals sure did. And the Dolphins, Jaguars and Bears followed suit.<\/p>\n

Four teams with prize young quarterbacks used second-round picks on offensive tackles Friday night as a theme<\/a> emerged that there is nothing more important than protecting the chief investment.<\/p>\n

The new pairings are the Bears\u2019 first-round pick Justin Fields with Teven Jenkins (pick No. 39), the Dolphins\u2019 second-year pro Tua Tagovailoa with Liam Eichenberg (No. 42), the Jaguars\u2019 first-round pick Trevor Lawrence with Walker Little (No. 45) and the Bengals\u2019 Burrow with Jackson Carman (No. 46). Washington and the Titans also took offensive tackles, marking six in the 19 picks of the second round.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe knew there was going to be a run of offensive linemen in the second round,\u201d Dolphins general<\/a> manager Chris Grier said after trading up with the Giants to draft Eichenberg. \u201cIt was important to get up and get him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Three centers and a guard made it 10 offensive linemen selected in the second round.<\/p>\n

\u201cOffensive linemen are at an all-time value,\u201d said new 49ers guard Aaron Banks, who eventually will block for first-round pick quarterback Trey Lance. \u201cIf you can\u2019t protect your quarterback, you can\u2019t win game<\/a>s.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Dolphins and Bengals both drafted receivers in the first round and then passed on their first chance to add a tackle Friday. The Dolphins grabbed safety Jevon Holland at pick No. 35 before Eichenberg, and the Bengals traded out of No. 38 \u2014 allowing the Patriots to grab another of Bill Belichick\u2019s beloved Alabama products in defensive tackle Christian Barmore \u2014 before securing Carman.<\/p>\n

Holland and Barmore marked the first safety and defensive tackle selected, respectively, after they were the only two offensive or defensive positions shut out of the first round.<\/p>\n

Andre Cisco \u2014 a one-time unheralded high school football prospect at St. Anthony\u2019s High in South Huntington, who transferred and played one year of varsity at prep powerhouse IMG Academy in Florida \u2014 is now an NFL player. The Syracuse safety was the first pick of the third round by the Jaguars.<\/p>\n

Cisco ended his career as the FBS active career leader in interceptions with 13 in just 24 games. He is coming off an ACL injury that limited his season to two games.<\/p>\n

The Jaguars used the first pick of the second round on cornerback Tyson Campbell. Combine those two picks with the free-agent additions of cornerback Shaq Griffin and safety Rayshawn Jenkins and it is clear Jaguars coach Urban Meyer\u2019s defensive philosophy is: Be strong on the back end. Former Rutgers head coach Chris Ash is in charge of the secondary.<\/p>\n

Another native New Yorker, outside linebacker Malcolm Koonce out of Buffalo, went to the Raiders at pick No. 79.<\/p>\n
\n

The Eagles aren\u2019t expecting another Sidney Jones situation with center Landon Dickerson.<\/p>\n

General manager Howie Roseman burned a second-round pick in 2017 on Jones, who was coming off a torn Achilles and didn\u2019t play as a rookie. He went back to the well Friday with Dickerson: The Rimington Trophy winner as the nation\u2019s best center suffered a torn ACL in the SEC Championship Game or he likely would have been a first-round pick.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are confident it\u2019s not going to be a redshirt season,\u201d Roseman said, though the Eagles did not specify a timeline for Dickerson\u2019s return to the field.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
