Backups we got suck. Can we trade someone? Any free agents still out there? OL is our biggest need other then maybe kicker.

The entire league has the same problem. It’s not possible with the salary cap. The interior backup OL seems fine. The tackles are rough.
Literally. Do y’all watch other preseason games? Everybody’s third string OL are bad, most have bad backups as well. Most teams only have 6-7 dependable OL, we literally played no starters.

Everyone's favorite OG free agent Dalton Risner is still out there I believe. Rodger Saffold as well. Justin Pugh is coming back from an ACL early last year and could be worth a look.

They really need to get serious about trading for a backup Guard/Tackle with starting potential. Someone with some game experience and someone who is mentally and physically tough. Too many 6'8" softies out there right now.

Start w Zack Martin.. then mix Duece in to take pressure off of the pass.

they should have taken oline in the second round in the draft instead of TE. horrible decision​
Actually I wasn't that high on the kid from Florida.....he was constantly getting blown up by 220lb LBers in the Sr Bowl. The real mistake was letting McGovern walk....especially after letting Conner Williams walk. What is the point of burning high picks on O-lineman if your just going to let them walk in 4 years???? Your developing players hitting their prime for other teams....that's just stupid. But hey.....this front office is known for their stupidity.

Imagine going into the season without Martin. Jerry be like, next man up!! We got a glimpse of those "next men".
Imagine if Martin loses the millions that he had already agreed to.

They might be able to trade a dlineman for an olineman.
