Round 6, Number 193 Overall: Justin Britt, Offensive Tackle, Missouri

The first team All-SEC offensive lineman could be solid depth for the Chiefs along the offensive front. Adding the 6’6″ 325 pound mammoth could really help to solidify that void for the Chiefs. He suffered a torn ACL in 2012, but bounced back tremendously in 2013. According to several scouts, Britt lacks a bit in the strength department but makes up for it with solid technique and a great football I.Q. Here’s what NFLDraftScout.com had to say about him,

"STRENGHTS– Looks the part of today’s prototypical left tackle, possessing impressive height, very long arms and a trim middle. Good initial quickness, especially as a run blocker, firing off the ball to turn and seal defenders from the action. Physical. Gets a strong initial shove on the opponent, which oftentimes is enough to knock them onto their heels. He has a wide base with good bend and flexibility in his kick-slide to keep the pocket clean. Plays with his knees bent, butt down and on the balls on his feet, giving him good balance."

Britt could be a steal and could come in and push Stephenson for that right tackle spot. At this point of the draft, you’re trying to find quality depth with the hopes that they could be impact players. Britt is that type of prospect though he does have his weaknesses,

"WEAKNESSES– Possesses good initial quickness but tops-out quickly and too often isn’t able to get to the second level in time to make the block on linebackers. Relies upon his initial shove too often, stopping his feet to get the emphatic punch on opponents and failing to latch on and sustain. Will be viewed by some as a bit of a ‘tweener as he may not possess the foot speed to remain outside but may be too tall for most quarterbacks to see over and has never played guard."

So he isn’t versatile, which is a problem when it comes to depth along an Andy Reid offensive line. Still, he’s a decorated offensive lineman from the toughest college conference in the country. I selected him in the same spot of my first mock draft as well.
