As much as I'd like for the team to find a way to keep both without breaking the bank, I will have to agree with you.  Exceptionally good offensive linemen are really hard to come by.  And while the same came be said of defensive linemen, a very good OG is something you must have.  We currently have a pretty good rotation on the DL, not so much on the OL.  So if it comes down to one or the other, I'd have to say I hope we keep Norwell.  I'd really hate to see Star go elsewhere, but sometimes those things are unavoidable. 

I also just feel like in the current environment of the NFL it's much easier to find a good NT than good OL.

If Norwell makes the probowl this year it probably means we are having a DAMN good season for him to get noticed and voted for.

I'll take it with pleasure and worry about his contract in the offseason!  

I truly want us to find a way to keep Norwell & Star both.  Realize it will be hard, and made much more complicated by our murky GM situation.  But for now the possibility of having too many good players to be able to pay them all is a GOOD problem to have.

In a way I think we are oversimplifying the situation. It's not just about who we want to keep but who want to be here. Might simply be one wants to move away. That changes the situation just as much as who the team wants.

Oline is the most important position on the team , they can make an average rb,QB look like hof'ers

[Fright]

Hate to say it, but I’d rather pay him over Star. We have Big Vern in waiting if it works out that way, but hopefully we keep both.

If there's any gm that will pay a rg top money it's hurney. 

 

    Gman already paid Trai. I know you want to throw shade at Hurndog, but man.

If Norwell makes the probowl and Matt Kalil continues to look bad, Kalil will have looked bad while playing next to a probowl guard. 

 

Not a good look. 

Then you cut Kalil and give that money you were going to give him long term to Norwell and Stah.

Even if he makes the probowl this year, he wont get Turner $$.

Big Vern made some noise in the Pats game, his burst at the snap is something to behold.

Yep, he definitely has a nasty quick first step.
