Riley Reiff not invited to draft

[theboat]

For all of those bashing McShay for saying Reiff is overrated, where has this been said? Anything I have seen from McShay has him clearly as the #2 OL in the draft.

Some excerpts from his most recent multi-scenario draft board.

Minnesota: 3
Scenario 1: The ideal situation for the Vikings would be to get a blockbuster trade offer -- likely from a team looking to get ahead of the Cleveland Browns and draft Texas A&M QB Ryan Tannehill -- that keeps them in the top 10 and adds another first-round pick. That would allow them to get an offensive tackle such as Iowa's Riley Reiff or a receiver such as Notre Dame's Michael Floyd and address another need later in the first round.

Dolphins: 8
Scenario 2: Should Tannehill be off the board, take the best available offensive player. That's Reiff or Floyd in this case. Reiff would offer a nice bookend opposite current LT Jake Long, and Floyd would add a weapon on the outside.

Carolina: 9
Scenario 3: Take their highest-rated available player at a position of need, whether that's Reiff, Floyd or South Carolina CB Stephon Gilmore.

Buffalo:10
Scenario 1: Reiff falling to this spot is the ideal situation for the Bills, who have not taken an offensive tackle in the first round since selecting Mike Williams fourth overall in 2002. Reiff is technically sound and would help solidify things in front of QB Ryan Fitzpatrick.

Arizona:13
Scenario 1: If Reiff is available, he's the pick. The Cardinals have a big hole at offensive tackle, and Reiff is ready to step in immediately.

Philly: 15
Scenario 1: The Eagles would love to see Reiff slip to them here, but that won't happen.

He said on Mike and Mike that Reiff is going to get drafted too soon. Guess you could say that means he's "over rated" he wasn't really dogging him too badly and agreed he would most likely go top ten.

People seem to think he's going to be a RT, surprising considering he was the #2 LT prospect, I guess that's changed. If a RT is being selected top 10-15 it better be for a left handed QB otherwise it seems like a waste of a pick. It's good to have good linemen, but if you're picking that high you want to see an impact player picked. A lot of linemen who start at LT in college could play RT; a franchise LT is usually a premium pick or a diamond in the rough pick. Then there are LT's who shouldn't be playing LT *Cough*J'Marcus Webb*Cough*.

I've also heard that this surge for Tannehill is undeserved. He's a talent that should go late first at the earliest if he's drafted on his skill set. That's neither here nor there though.
