we've got a lot to see from these guys, if they're confident in staying with these guys, save OL for later in the draft
I think we are about to see if Solari can get these guys to buy in to his blocking schemes and if we can't run block and we suck in that area well he's gone after this year probably anyway. Build it from the inside is such a simple and proven concept that eludes team after team year after year.

Bass will either be LG starter (with Tyler out to LT) or key lead backup at both OG spots - think he has enuff ex-OT athleticism, physicality to factor inside
at OG.

Hoffman is a mere band -aid backup., we're fools if we're projecting him to immediate starter at center - i don't want to see him at OG. .
Expect a starting center in the first 4 rounds.

Doesn't speak volume to be bringing mistake prone Chumba back into the fold. No team wanted him as a FA, and he was so cheap in a money cheap team
that he was irresistable bargain ?

Dunno what how team sees Asim Richards. hope he makes vast jump in camp, gets ahead of Chumba on depth chart.
Ball cannot play OT, and he's a progress stopper at OG. And like Watlesko cannot avoid injury. Wally has bad shoulders.

Expect a late rounder project ... or another vet street FA to be added to rostrer at some point.

Hoffman, Bass, Richards, Waletzko, what are your thoughts on these guys heading into the draft. Which player is most ready to step in and be a starter. There may be more than 1. With how cheap the Jones men are, our offensive line may already be here! What are your thoughts on these young backup OL guys???

Josh Ball doesn’t didn’t make your list isn’t he still taking up oxygen in the Star

Bass can avd should be the starter at LG. Hoffman looked ok but center is too important to give him the job based on 1 start vs a bad run defense team.

that's what we do, we give players the start how good or bad they are, we're cheap for gosh sakes

The only ones worth keeping are Bass, Richards and maybe Hoffman... Hoffman because he is the only C on the roster and even if you draft a C, do you wanna stake your life on him starting immediately?... need a backup plan. Waletzko, Ball not worth taking up roster space, and too late on Edoga. The Cowboys need to draft a C and LT.

I will say this, They love Richards,Bass and Hoffman. As cheap at Stevie is, I can easily see them thinking they can pass drafting an olinemen early.

That's been my thoughts for the last few days, it seems they may be content with letting their depth battle it out, so why really waste a OL in the first round? There's so much depth in this years draft
Gotta have an elite LT1.

scrubs won’t cut it.
