They added 2 rookies and 2 veterans. They signed Martin and Steele. What exactly were they supposed to do?
1 oft injured vet, and 2 late round rooks. Gotta get the info straight, dude.

Who is this other vet besides ChuChu?

Dalton Risner is still available. Sign him after week 1 on a 1 year prove it deal.

...Peters insurance plan, still available. He knows Dallas offense, players ..etc.

Wont hurt to have solid vet on back burner.

The one they got from the Giants.
The one who is desperately trying to make a roster as a backup C and is slated for our PS? Might not be NFL talent. Sure you want to count him as a positive?

Here is a serious question, because I don’t know. What team has “good” depth at the OLine position. Philly’s & KC’s OLine is supposed two of the best, I looked at their depth and with my very limited knowledge, they look very weak also.

Again a someone help me out.

No one can argue against a 'Maybe'... But it's a huge maybe given Tyron (history, age), Zach (age), Steele (recovery)... I also realize we have drafted 2 guards in the 2-3rd rounds that we cut and are starting for very good teams...

Specifically a center and guard... we have depth gaps at center and guard... :thumbup:
Who did we cut? I must have missed that.

I understand that. But that is how you end up with taco Charlton over TJ Watt
You make a good point here and when all is said and done, it may very well turn out similarly. The difference I see here is that while Torrance was touted in the media as a top prospect, it turned out that he slid quite a bit from projections. That leads me to believe that he was overvauled by pundits as opposed to front offices. When they took Taco over TJ, it seemed very clear that they were only focused on scheme fit and forced the pick. With this, It seemed like maybe they just did not like what they saw in Torrence as a player.

That is the most important question right now on Philadelphia...and I would throw into Cowboy interest, San Francisco. I see NFL players that are good. But for now, I still just see good.

The defensive end position is now strong and deep for Dallas. That now is not a failure event.

This fanbase has been spoiled since the early 2010's.

Watching the Dolphins for 20 something years and that's a team that struggles to land 2-3 good linemen most years, let alone 5 which this team has now, healthy.

And, now it's expected to have legit backups without any warts in their game.
2014 on I agree. People are down on the oline too much. It's been elite to top 10 every year 14-23 besides 18 when they had a lot of injuries. So I see the concern for depth there.
