I wouldnt call the line elite at all and 2 starters wont even be ready to start the season and its up in the air if they will even be the same players when they come back. Better hope it works out that way.

I'm in the camp that thinks our OL is not the level some fans have gone ahead and declared it to be. Like okay admittedly Sam Darnold was a poo QB as was Baker but the oline didn’t do them favors. But for some reason some folks see inserting a QB smaller than any of last years quarterbacks Corral included who got pummeled in preseason as profit. You have to laugh a little at the situation.

I think missing out on an edge is a huge mistake, but I see this draft.  Why is everyone drafting Guards when we have no real backup plan at T, unless we really like the player we signed off the Dolphins' Practice Squad last year.  A T is more likely to move inside to G than a G to a T--so I am thinking depth here.

BC was not that good at LG, but I think he should improve.  As Ekwonu and BC improved, then we finally put Bozeman in, the OL got pretty solid.  We will need to be very stout up the middle--and I like what I saw of Cade in limited action.  not elite, but good.

like it a lot, but I'm not wild about Darnell in the second.   Love the 3rd round pick.  don't know if he played with Ickey at State but he might have, and that relationship could make the transition easier.

Also I'm not really ready to spend a pick in this draft on an RB.  Too many other needs, but if it's the right guy at the right time of the draft, I'm fine with it.

You know what would be funny. Drafting Young and putting him behind the same line that got Corral injured. Oh wait, we can't. None of those guys are still around. If you have to make things up, your point may be too weak to start with.

I, for 1, think that Christiansen is good back up tackle if either go down and a quality guard is a lot easier to find than a quality tackle on day 3. I could also see bringing back Erving for T depth, Free agency has not been his friend, so he'd be a cheap signing.

In total fairness iamhubby1 if it were up to you and your sunshine and rainbows crew we would still be starting Darnold.

Typical of you. Deflect, and attack. I guess when you can't validate your point, that's all that's left. 

 

That's funny too. "Sunshine and Rainbow crew". Nothing but insults from you. But hey, at least you are consistent. Care to name a few of our members? Or is that too much to ask?

I need to name names? Anyone who has perused the huddle the last 6 months or so has seen the folks who kept saying give Darnold another chance lol.

As skeptical as I am of Young I'll take his potential ten times out of ten over that.

Appreciate the convo 🫡

Big whatever on the NFL #1. Until someone actually does and changes the paradigm, you just do not take a player that size for that position at 1.1.
If this needs to be explained to you I seriously hope you are not named Frank Reich, Scott Fitterer or David Tepper. 
 
I would buy that the NFL is going flag football just without the flags, and if Tepper has assessed things that way, and that is why they may be serious…  I yield my opposition.
