So do we start over or can an off season of healthy folks working with the S&C coach and the OL coach fix the problem? Note: excluding RT (Free, don't know what his problem is).

Disclaimer: I know we need to draft at least one or maybe two OL pretty high in any case.

Thoughts?

I think some of the so called parts can be kept but we do need some better talent and then they have to be able to work as a complete unit. OL is not so much about the individual as it is 5 men working in unison.

This past year from Training camp throughout the season Dallas could not keep the starting 5 together while also learning under Callahan and his blocking schemes.

I don't think you will see 2 or 3 new OL players however I do think Dallas will look to add an OL player in the draft.
