I am kind of perplexed as to their thinking at OG

They could come back in the 4th and grab an OG but after that, it's mostly projects.

They must be banking on the belief Steele is ahead of schedule and Tyron will stay healthy allowing Tyler Smith to play LG. Seems like a real risky plan.

Farniok is blah. Ball? Please. They had an up close look at what a dominant OL could do at the height of Frederick/Smith/Martin and yet for some reason, they seem content with pretty mediocre play at OC and LG.

I don’t get it either.

I just hope that nobody starts trying to talk up Edoga or Ball as legit options because they failed to do anything.

Yeah. This is my biggest concern.

I’m fine with the picks of Schoonmaker and Overshown IF I didn’t think there’s a glaring need at LG.


They are either deluding themselves into thinking Tyron will actually stay healthy all season or they think Edoga can be a decent starter at LG.

I don’t feel good about either of those things. To be honest.

Looks like they are moving Steele to G.

Unless they put Tyler Smith at LG we are butt naked at the position, and Tyler Smith SHOULD be our LT

Totally agree but it sure seems like Tyler is moving to guard. We don’t have enough depth at guard to play him at tackle. I can’t believe we’re going into another season relying on Tyron to be healthy. Absolute stupidity.

They obviously didnt like the guards in this draft especially not the top ones. Torrence supposedly was the best one in the draft and they passed on him in the 2nd.

Have no idea what they are doing THIS season. If Chung starts it's a disaster.

This defense, however should be off the chain.

They feel all they need is a spot starter at either LG/LT. Are much higher on their in house backups then the fan base. Still want to add a Guard to compete, but their plan appears best 5 starting.

Beyond stupid. So basically Tyron and Steele need to start from day 1 and be 100% and never get hurt. And Im not sure I am even thrilled by that lineup. The Oline is in total shambles after this year.

LOL......Oh yah did you sit in on all their meetings to know that?
 
This team is going to put their 5 best OL on the field. I guarantee you it’s Smith & Smith on the left side and Steel at RT.
