The backup tackles on this roster are roooough. And tackle isn't a position where you can plug and play a 2nd or 3rd rounder all that often. So if you grab one now with a year or two to season him, you can have someone ready to actually step in and play come 2020 if the need arises.

Yeah, they def need to start planning for that.
Pretty crazy what the Pats have done at LT this year. Let Soldier walk, drafted a guy in the first round who tears his achilles, then grab someone and throw him in there and go there merry way.
