Yeah, our IOL is a fuging mess. It's somehow worse than our OT's. 

It would be a little shocking to see us spend that kind of coin on an OG but I would understand if they are perhaps going all in on Ekwonu one last time at LT. Perhaps having an elite LG would be a big help.

Either way, we have to upgrade that OL. That one of the biggest of the offseason.

Christensen is likely to move to RT after Moton, assuming we re-sign him and we can for cheap. As of now, he's the swing tackle.  We probably cut Moton after this season.  Cap savings are too great and good RTs aren't too hard to find at a much cheaper price tag.  I'd rather go ahead and extend BC now and get out ahead of this.

All that being said, addressing guard...LG in particular, should be paramount because no matter what happens to BC, he's not the LG of the future.

it's a good draft for RT.  we might pick one up and let him learn for a year behind Moton.

I'd rather draft a RG to learn behind Corbett for a season.  Assuming he's healthy, his cap figure is too great to cut this season.  Corbett is gone when the season is over.  Moton theoretically could play for us in 2025 if we want him at that cap figure.  If that's the case, we just drafted a guy that won't see the field much until 2026.

I am not sure really where BC fits. Honestly, probably as a starter in a zone blocking scheme, which doesn't fit with what we have built the rest of the OL for here.

Ideally, he's a top tier backup if we had built our line properly.

      We looked like a competent NFL team PIE thread

      By Prowler2k18 · Posted

      We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.

      Bryce developing before our eyes

      By Pejorative Miscreant · Posted

      I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By Ricky Prickles · Posted

      He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
