Stories going around that the Ravens offered Gain the opportunity to outbid Philly with his third-round pick but Gaine chose to hang tough stay at 23, and retain his third rounder and take Howard.
I wouldn't be surprised if Howard is a superior OT to Dillard over the long-term
but short-term, well Watson had better buckle it up again in 2019.
Howard did play both LT & RT because Bama-State had a right-handed QB & also a lefty at QB sometimes.
