I have given up hope that we are going to make any noise this season, besides maybe backing into the playoffs, but I am also hoping that Knight, McGovern, and Biadasz can set up nicely for the future on the OL. If Collins and Smith can come back healthy, this OL can be deadly in '21, mixing in with the skill talent, the offense in '21 could be historically good.
Smith - McGovern -Biadasz-Martin-Collins with Knight as a high-quality swing T and Williams as good quality depth inside.

It would allow us to focus almost solely on fixing the defense in the draft and with any FA money we can piece together.

I understand your logic but in no fashion can we solely focus on D in the draft...the OL cannot be trusted to play well nor stay healthy

I mean this could be a good thing long term. If he plays and plays well all of a sudden we could have 3 solid young OL. Biadasz, Knight, and McGovern.

Knight can clearly play in this league he’s started 3 games and has played well in all 3 including last year vs GB. He held Zadarius Smith in check.

if Knight plays well and proves he can be a good starter it would allow to skip on using A premium pick on OT.

Keep in mind Myles Garrett was pretty much a non factor when Knight came into the game.

Kid can play in this league. I agree with your take

First sack he gives up, I wonder if he will get blasted like they did to Williams.
Or will he get a pass, saying he needs time to learn.

double standards you know,
Just hope that he doesn't totally blow it,, thats all Im praying for.

Good luck Connor.
Your feet is now in the fire.
I hope you have asbestos for soles.

Crush it, keep it and make a name out of yourself.
This is your time.
Take it.


That's what it's all about.
Opening and walking through when Life shows you the door.

This is for you youngin's too.
Don't be afraid. Grab it and hold it like it's yours.

As long as he is not driven backwards by opposing DT's like rollerskates Connor Williams. Connor Williams is just to weak and it shows up on a few negative plays a game. Let's get a guard in there with grit and I can handle some learning mistakes.
