Man ... that is a tough one. Mainly because about 4 of them were basically the same guy lol 
I was pretty impressed with Buss Sasser once I read up and watched some film on him.

I have to say Cody Wichmann. I can literally see him getting a job on this line in a few years, if not sooner. I mean, the guy held his own against one of the top five players in this year's draft in Leonard Williams. He gave Derek Carr amazing protection. He should've gone a lot higher than he did, and I feel that we got ourselves a steal with him.
Rob Havenstein. He has a good chance to start day 1 at RT.

Jason Brown....I think he's a potential all pro guard. I got a good feeling about him.

Havenstein. I really hope he runs away with RT.
Our RTs these last few years:
Barksdale
Saffold
Wayne Hunter
Jason Smith
None have been a dominating snot-knocker. Barks has had good moment and Saffold only really seemed to dominate in the run game when he began to pull as a guard. Love it if Havenstein just pushes people around in the run game from there.

I'm really loving Havenstein, but Andrew Donnal was an awesome pick in my mind too. The guy serves up so many pancakes, he has to work at IHOP.
You read my mind, I'll 2nd the Wichmann vote. While it's a bit too obvious to say Haverstein, Wichmann should be this year's EJ Gaines, a late pick who really comes in and shows his stuff for those reasons you mentioned. It should help him that's he's playing in position, that his primary position is G (and RG at that), rather than being a converted T.
The Leonard Williams USC v Fresno compressed game tape can be found at (my favorite site) and is worth a watch. He only was manned up against Wichman maybe 1/3 of the snaps, but other than the INT, Williams certainly does not jump out at you as as a #6 pick in the NFL draft (other than the INT). The Fresno TD at 3:35 was right over Williams.

Big Rob "The Body" has my vote. Gotta love a dude as big, ugly, and non-fit looking as him. Just wait until he has the benefit of a pro workout regimen and diet. He's gonna be a beast.
Er...you mean Jamon Brown, right? Jason Brown just gives me bad memories...

I agree, I've seen enough of this guy to actually believe he could change a few opinions around here once they see him on the field in Horns.
To think Austin Davis is even remotely close to this guys level is laughable in my worthless opinion.

Oops. Spell check at work. Yes, past Rams QBs still get nightmares about Jason Brown too.
I was just telling a co-worker that the 4th lineman we selected may end up being the best of all of them.
My favorite moment is from the future......

Jamon Brown if he keeps his weight down to 320. Otherwise Wichmann who is a close 2nd.
