A lot of people are focusing on the health of the OL, but I want to take this a different direction. Let’s say every OL on the team, including depth players, is healthy. How good is our OL?

Tyron, Zack and La'el, when healthy are some of the best in their position in the whole league. Connor Williams is the weak link but IMO, getting better. Baidasz is reliable and I suspect he'll prove to be a worthy replacement for Fredbeard.

I think it is still a very good OL when we have the starting 5. I do think we will see Biadasz emerge as the starting center with Looney providing backup at Center and Guard.

...if Money-Bags Zeke can get 5+yds per carry with healthy OL. We're in business. Anything less, liquidate.

If everyone is back and healthy, I think they’re top 10, with the potential to be top 5. But in my opinion, the group bought into their own hype the past few years and went from dominating to finesse. No truly great offensive line struggles in short yardage and goal line ‘money’ situations like this one has got several years now. I think they need more physicality, healthy or otherwise.

is looney even in the team? And don’t forget McGovern. He will factor in somewhere

I agree, I think he will compete for a starting job with Williams. Both of them on rookie contracts and Looney would not cost much to bring him back.

I dont know if they are top 5 in league but certainly top half. The problem is they haven't stayed healthy since 2017 I want to say.

All of those saying top 5 forget we are 7 years removed from it being the best Oline in football.

Fully healthy, it's just a question of how good Biadasz can be as a full-time starter. Williams was a good guard last year.

We know the answer. It was already declining before 2020..so knowing what we know, the answer is not good enough. We pretend that all will be fine IF IF IF this happens or whatever..but history has shown us that Tyron cant stay healthy. We saw Collins basically crap the bed in the offseason with just poor decisions..THEN a car wreck..then hip surgery. NO WAY should we count on him to walk into the line up a full go as the old Collins. That is farcical. We need to take the blinders off and draft us a cat that potentially can step in day 1 and takeover in case hes not right.
