Good coaches find a way to get talented players on the field....and you can never have too many pass rushers.

I have said all along that the oline is not a priority for Jerry. It is an area that he wants to get by without spending many draft picks. I feel like there will be little change in next years line. Maybe a mid-tier free agent OG signing or a late round draft pick will be it. I think the line will continue to keep this team average.
I expect an OLB in round one or a DE. You may see the first two rounds used for these positions. Two OLBs would be a stretch, but considering it is a strong year, it might be a good move. The Wilber pick this year is a waste to me. The pick could have been used better.
I think the line could be fixed with the draft. I would love to see a quality young line drafted to grow and make a great unit. I just don't think Jerry is willing to do it. I took a look at some of my pet cat lineman from the last few years that went to other teams .Dallas could have had most of them and they would have been a big improvement without taking away from the draft hits the team has had. I ticks me off that the players have been there, but Dallas refuses to spend the picks on linemen. With the exception of Tyron, the line will continue to be a rag-tag bunch of no talented jags. The beatdowns suffered in the trenches are well deserved and I.hope Jerry enjoys it because he sure has asked for it.
